This is an incredible piece and there is so much to unpack from it. Can you please break this down into a series we can discuss so as to be able to continue learning these concepts in more detail.
You have such incredible insights and I for one wish to learn more in order to (a) not be sandwiched between 2 generations, and thus lost in the noise, and (2) continue my own process of learning so as to help future generations.
Ana, thank you, truly. I sat with this comment for a moment before replying, because it asks for something real and I wanted to answer it properly.
Being sandwiched between two generations, carrying one inheritance while trying not to pass it forward, is one of the most demanding and least acknowledged positions a person can be in. You are doing the work of looking at something nobody before you had the language or the permission to look at. That can feel like being lost in the noise. It is actually the opposite. It is being the one who breaks the quiet transmission. Generations downstream of you will feel the difference, even if they never know where the change began!
So I want to honour the request. Yes, this is becoming a series. A book, a manual. Maybe even a podcast. Thank you for following. I appreciate you!
