In this vulnerable episode, I share reflections from my dark night of the soul, where I retreated for months to listen inward.

Some key questions I have been grappling with are:

- How are we allowing the genocide in Gaza to happen? How are we not able to stop it as a collective force?

- How do we embrace humanity and believe that we can do better together, while also having zero tolerance for all forms of oppression? 

- How am I implicated in systems of oppression?

- Is the economic system that we have built honoring life?
