In 'Rage Becomes Her,' Soraya Chemaly argues that women's anger is not only justified but also a vital instrument for change. The book explores how girls and women are conditioned from infancy to suppress their anger, and how this suppression affects their health and wellbeing. Chemaly lays out the systemic ways in which female rage is suppressed, diverted, or minimized, and provides scientific evidence and personal experiences to support her arguments. She encourages women to recognize, articulate, and use their anger to spark change and challenges the societal and cultural norms that belittle women's anger as a means of controlling their power.
The Tao Te Ching is a central text in Taoist philosophy and religion. It consists of 81 brief chapters or sections that discuss the nature of the Tao, which is described as the source and ideal of all existence. The text emphasizes living in harmony with nature, the importance of simplicity, humility, and the interconnectedness of all things. It critiques unnatural actions and social activism based on abstract moralism, advocating for a life of 'nonaction' (wu wei) and spontaneity. The text has been highly influential in Chinese philosophy and has been translated numerous times, making it one of the most translated texts in world literature[2][3][4].

Although Hakim Tafari defies categorization, a few things are clear. This guy has light. And his journey of personal transformation is nothing short of remarkable.
Hakim is a unique and gentle soul of many trades and traits. But fundamentally, he is a seeker. A journeyman of reinvention. An ambassador of running culture & mindfulness. A master of many a martial art from Kung Fu to Tai Chi. An herbalist, massage therapist, a vegan. And an ardent student and practitioner of several spiritual traditions from Buddhism to Daoism.
Hakim’s life didn’t come easy. Nor was it delivered overnight. Instead it’s the hard-wrought product of devotion to progressive growth. To being just a little bit better today than yesterday.
Today he shares his story.
Paved with solid life lessons, this conversation is one man’s hero’s journey.
It’s about transformation.
It’s about finding peace in failure. Creating a mindfulness-based lifestyle. The call to blaze a spiritual path. And the pangs of growth.
But more than anything, this is a dialog about finding freedom — in mind, body, and soul.
I’ve had the pleasure of conversing with a diversity of extraordinary humans. But every blue moon I luck into a mind-meld that elevates an exchange into a higher gear. This is one such experience — a connection marked with heart and truth. Vulnerability and authenticity.
The visually inclined can watch our exchange on YouTube. And as always, the podcast streams wild and free on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. Enjoy!
Peace + Plants,
Rich
