Wilde About Wellbeing

"I'm female, therefore I can't get a boardroom job" = being female is the problem. NO!  The barrier is societal patriarchy. "I'm Black, therefore I can't get optimal healthcare" = being Black is the problem. NO! The obstacle is systemic racism. "I'm gay, therefore I am not accepted into this religion" = being gay is the problem. NO! The issue is culturally engrained homophobia. YOU are never the problem, and by labelling the problem as yours because of something you can't change, you're ignoring what you CAN change: society's perception of your skin colour / sexuality / gender / religion etc etc. In today's episode, I discuss why this is such a huge problem, and how by saying something is specifically our fault, we are shunning responsibility and actually doing a disservice to all those who are like us!     Honorable Mentions (if you can't access these links, try using the Apple Podcasts or Overcast apps) Workbook on Self-Talk- FREE!   Workbook on Building Rituals - FREE!
