The notion of sisterhood is deeply resonant for me. And it's interesting, obviously, middle-aged white male, I step into it. And what you were describing, I can't experience, I'll never experience in the same way, clearly. So I'd love to walk through some of those. You introduce this notion of Sisterhood and the four S's. The four S's are that sisterhood allows us to be seen. It allows us to soften. We don't know until it shows up in relationship to one another.
Esteemed therapist Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, in her new book Sisterhood Heals: The Transformative Power of Healing in Community, emphasizes the healing power of community to combat feelings of isolation. She discusses creating safe, vulnerable spaces and the importance of platonic relationships for genuine understanding and support. Join us as we delve into themes of loneliness, sisterhood, group dynamics, and the unexpected origins of deep connections.
