Mindfulness is all about taking a moment to pay attention to what’s going on with you. But how does looking into yourself impact the world outside? In this episode, mindfulness coach and keynote speaker Aiko Smith joins host Whitney Lauritsen to share that self-care is an act of resistance and mindfulness is a way to navigate oppressive systems. She sheds light on obstacles that marginalized groups experience and how that can become a source of strength. Aiko also highlights how setting boundaries and going against the grain of what’s expected from women is the right step to dismantling the culture of patriarchy. They also discuss diet culture, the impacts of social media, and the challenges of motherhood.
