Listen To This | What To Do About The People Who Disagree With You
A Podcast Rec for Saturday, January 25th
Welcome to Listen to This, a new feature within Welcome Wanderer. Each day, I share a favorite podcast episode or audiobook —something that moved me, challenged me, or simply made life a little brighter.
Podcast of The Day: For The Wild | Earthly Reads: adrienne maree brown on Loving Corrections | Jan 24 2025 | 36 min
Why It Mattered To Me:
After writing yesterday’s post about Don & Co. and desperately wanting to delete it today, I was relieved to stumble upon this podcast episode with the wise and loving adrienne maree brown addressing my very same sentiments. adrienne talked about her new book and how we can bring lasting transformation to our divided world and the devastation of the earth (hint: it’s not through judgment or finger pointing)Press Pause on These Words:
“Part of why I stay in relationship with people that I might otherwise not want to be in relationship with is because I can’t get away from these ideas simply by moving away from those people because they’re all around me. It’s the structure that we’re in. So my liberation is then tied up with those who I would identify as other… we all have to get free together. We all have to get as many of us to tip the scale away from causing that harm as possible because it’s the water we’re swimming in.”
Whatever your Saturday looks like may it include a few minutes outside in nature, moving your body, and making something beautiful.
See you tomorrow for Sunday’s Podcast Potion- my top 7 episodes from the week!
