Carrie is joined by Breanna Butler to chat about cancel culture.
They start the show by giving the definition of cancel culture, and then dive into how cancel culture tends to start, and how it can fester and turn into doing more harm than good. Carrie gives an example of a specific person who she REALLY wanted to cancel at one point, and how she navigates the truly tricky feelings of being so mad at someone and finding the space to allow them to see their fault and to prove change.
DISCLAIMER: In this episode we talk a lot about empathy and giving people the benefit of the doubt in times when there is a gray area, or when it seems two people may be coming from two different places of WHAT THEY KNOW TO BE TRUTH causing a misunderstanding or disagreement.
That being said: if you are in a situation where someone's only goal is to spew severe hate and devastation towards you, OR the other person has reached the point of no reason what so ever. I encourage you to remove yourself from that situation for your own wellbeing and safety.
