Bonus: Should You Cancel Your Family?: An Interview with Brit Barron, author of Do You Still Talk to Grandma? When the Problematic People in Our Lives Are the Ones We Love

Have you ever felt pressured to cut someone out of your life because of their problematic views or actions -- even when it's family? In today's polarized culture, it's easy to fall into black-and-white thinking and believe that we must completely reject anyone who doesn't align with our beliefs. But what happens when the problematic person is someone we love, like a family member or close friend?In this bonus episode, I sit down with author and speaker Brit Barron to explore the complexities of navigating relationships with problematic loved ones. Brit's new book Do You Still Talk to Grandma? When the Problematic People in Our Lives Are the Ones We Love challenges the notion that we must cancel or annihilate those who hold different views from us. You're going to want to listen in on this one, as Brit offers insights on practicing empathy and humility, finding a middle ground between accountability and punishment, and more.Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://schoolofnewfeministthought.com/bonus-brit-barron
