BELONGING: How acceptance plays a role in feeling we belong
Manage episode 378756105 series 3363865
Chrissy opens today’s episode with a box breathing practice, then shares the definition of the word belonging, and invites us to consider the question: what role does acceptance play in creating a sense of belonging?
Stacey Chomiak also joins the conversation to discuss the challenges of feeling whole and accepted as a queer person of faith. Together, Chrissy and Stacey discuss finding a sense of belonging through art, Stacey’s queer-affirming children’s books, and creating space for understanding between religious and queer communities.
Then Chrissy shares this week’s book recommendation, Braving the Wilderness: The Quest for True Belonging and the Courage to Stand Alone by Brené Brown.
And in the end, Chrissy encourages you to ask yourself:
- What role does acceptance play in creating a sense of belonging?
- How do your identities and background impact your sense of belonging in different environments?
- How can you be more welcoming and inclusive to others who feel like they don’t belong?
