Have you ever questioned the role of communication and clarity in shaping our identity and relationships? This intriguing exploration with E Corey Cole, a dear friend of mine, brings to light the intricacies of non-binary identity and polyamory, particularly how these aspects of personal identity have been influenced by western Christianity. We unravel the spiritual world of mysticism, psychedelics, and crystals, as invaluable tools in gaining insight into non-binary identity, and discuss the power of cultural humility, the necessity of de-colonizing our minds, and the journey to connect more deeply with fellow humans, varied cultures, and the land.
Navigating non-binary identity and polyamory is not without challenges; the social cost can be great. So, how does one maneuver this journey? E Corey Cole shares personal experiences, shedding light on their path to self-discovery, the role of rituals in marking their transformation, and the balancing act of individualism and collectivism. We delve into the potential impact of gentle parenting on children and how non-conventional parenting styles can shape a child's worldview.
Our conversation also uncovers the power of rituals, like poetry and autobiographical books, in initiating healing and personal transformation. E Corey Cole offers profound insights into these processes, illuminating the beauty of participating in each other's stories. So, join us on this journey, as we peel back the layers of non-binary identity and polyamory, challenging preconceived ideas, and stepping into a world of self-exploration, acceptance, and understanding.
