Fierce Authenticity and Supremacy Culture with Shirani M. Pathak

I absolutely love this human being, Shirani M. Pathak, and all the amazing work she has been doing to dismantle trauma resulting from supremacy culture. Shirani is following up her first book Fierce Authenticity with Fierce Authenticity 2.0, adding in critical information and resources about how trauma, tending to our nervous systems, and supremacy culture have to be addressed when it comes to understanding our wounds.

Her transition from her first one to this one is a beautiful demonstration of how we are always in process of understanding our own conditioning within supremacy culture. Shirani has done incredible research for her new book, which she dives into in this episode as well.

Follow Shirani on Instagram @shiranimpathak, get in touch with her at https://www.shiranimpathak.com/contact, and listen to her podcast Fierce Authenticity. Shirani also interviewed me on her podcast as well, and I love how we fangirl for each other!

And check out my new venture, The Healing Hype! This is my free newsletter about healing and liberation, which is also audio-accessible (you can even add it to your favorite podcast player!) If you're looking to have more conversation about these topics, you can invest in The Healing Hype for $5/month or $50/year. You'll get access to my private chat group and Nisha’s Greatest Hits! - these are my intuitive hits that I dictate and transcribe for you :)
