Most people in our capitalist, ableist society were taught that play is never enough, with pressure to perform and set aside their joys and interests. In our increasingly fascist political system, people feel pressured to suppress their values and accept injustice and cruelty.

What does it take to find your joy again? Where do you get the strength to act on your values? And what happens next?

"Untangling Ourselves" is a podcast about how joy and curiosity help people unlearn, deprogram, and find a sense of purpose.

Untangling Ourselves

Stories about making change--in ourselves and in culture--without coercion. Guests share how joy, curiosity, community, and a sense of purpose lead to unlearning, deprogramming, decolonizing, deschooling, and deconstructing how we live our lives and who we think we are. It's not just seeing what's wrong that leads to sustainable shifts--but seeing what's right. Topics including: non-coercive leadership, peaceful parenting, unschooling, feminism, leaving high control religion, neurodivergence, disability, donor conceived people, free Palestine, arts and music, local organizing, mutual aid, trans rights, children's rights, CPTSD, and toxic family systems.
