Black Mental Health and Autism: Dr. Norissa and Thema Bradford on Decolonizing Therapy
Saison 2 · Épisode 11
vendredi 6 décembre 2024 • Durée 01:05:54
In this episode, I speak with Thema Bradford about the intersection of Black mental health, autism, and the journey to decolonize therapy. Thema, a licensed mental health counselor and Reiki Master Teacher, shares her experience of entering the field at 45 and how her journey was inspired by her mother.
Thema shares the importance of finding community, embracing one's neurodivergence, and navigating societal systems rooted in patriarchy, white supremacy, and capitalism. Thema introduces her group "Late Pass," which offers a space for Black women discovering their neurodivergence later in life, and shares insights on how to find grace, empowerment, and healing along the way.
This episode is a powerful reminder that we are already whole and deserving of compassion.

Is Location Independence a Pathway to Liberation? A Talk with Stacyann Forrester and Dr. Norissa
Saison 2 · Épisode 10
vendredi 29 novembre 2024 • Durée 01:04:20
In today’s episode of Radical Remembering, I’m joined by Stacyann Forrester, an astrologer and global traveler, to explore the concept of location independence and how it can serve as a path toward liberation. Stacyann shares how moving away from traditional ideas of security, structure, and attachment to a fixed location can lead to personal growth and authenticity.
We also tackle how our cultural backgrounds, and experiences living abroad, have shaped our perspectives on identity; Stacyann's journey to location independence; how astrology played a pivotal role in her journey; and how embracing an “outsider’s identity” has brought both challenges and growth.

First Internalized Messages About Race
Saison 1 · Épisode 5
dimanche 5 mars 2023 • Durée 34:33
The first internalized messages about race are the most damaging. They can take root in children from a young age and be passed on from parent to child, generation to generation, for years. These messages are often related to skin color or physical appearance. For example: "Black people are lazy." "White people are better." "Black people should not talk so loud." "White people should not smile so much." These types of messages can be especially dangerous because they encourage stereotypes and bias against certain groups without even realizing it!
In this episode, Dr. Norissa and Dr. Bukky, the podcast hosts, share Dr. Norissa’s story on internalizing messages about race, Dr. Bukky’s story of first internalized messages about race, and implicit and explicit messages. They also clearly shed more light on racial hierarchy and lateral aggression, and the four kinds of racial socialization, and black pride.

(23:44) “We can’t heal what we don’t reveal.”
(24:06) “We want to feel a sense of belonging so we will gravitate to people who we feel more like a shared sense of identity.”
(31:49) “Black is beautiful.”

Freedom is a powerful thing. It gives you the ability to do whatever you want, be who you want, and make the right decisions for you. Liberation is about choosing how you want to live and having the right to do so. It's about having the right to say no when someone else wants something from you. It's about having a voice in your community and being respected by those around you.
In this episode, Dr. Norissa and Dr. Bukky, the podcast hosts, go through Dr. Bukky’s liberation journey. Dr. Bukky shares more details about her deGEMMification process, her experience before her call to action, and her activation points through liberation.

(01:36) “Liberation is not a linear process. It is more of a circular process.”
