What happens when you combine an honest conversation about identity, belonging, and society's expectations with a dash of personal experience? You get an insightful and thought-provoking episode featuring my long-time friend, Dr. Britt Andreata, CEO of Brain Aware Training and author of books on the brain science of success. As a white woman, married for twenty years, and bisexual, Britt joins me in discussing the Creating Belonging Model and her eye-opening experiences with race and societal expectations.
Together, we delve into the minimizing experiences of women in a predominantly male world and how society often teaches women to expect sexism. From sharing our personal stories of dealing with issues like childhood molestation to examining the science behind power and harassment, this episode is packed with raw and genuine conversation. We also explore the privilege of straight men and the expectations placed on women to attract a partner. Join us as we discuss the contextual nature of belonging and the work needed to dismantle oppressive structures that inhibit a truly inclusive world. Don't miss out on this engaging discussion that will leave you reflecting on your own experiences and the journey towards a more inclusive society.
