17. Joy as an Act of Resistance

It’s been hard to breathe lately and I’ve been struggling to keep my emotions in check. In a recent conversation I had with one of my friend, we discussed joy as an act of resistance, which is the subject of this solo podcast. In this episode I talk about why joy is an act of resistance against white supremacy, how to cultivate more joy, and how to destress so we aren’t taking our anger out on our kids. I’m praying for ya’ll and hope as you resist, you’ll also remember to let joy in. Websi
