113: Balancing Self-Care and Community Care with Nat Vikitsreth

This episode is about liberation, revolution, and social justice. We are tackling these topics from a practical perspective with my guest, Nat. Join us!

Nat Vikitsreth is a licensed clinical social worker who works with families who want to practice social justice in their daily lives but are torn between acting in their communities and at home. She helps them bridge the gap despite being tired, overwhelmed, and stretched too thin. Holding space for their beautiful intentions and walking with them on this journey are Nat’s passions.

Show Highlights:

• Nat’s background as a transgender woman from Thailand who has become a clinician and a social justice organizer
• Trying to honor our values about liberation at home and in the community
• Being your own ally first with agility and awareness of your available bandwidth
• Learning to hold space for accountability
• The root causes of our suffering: white supremacy, colonialism, capitalism, and patriarchy
• Leading with compassion in action instead of punishment
• What it means to be truly humble
• Nat’s advice for parents
• Finding the sweet spot between discomfort and boundaries
• Being realistic in your family about what causes you can support and take action on with your limited capacity
