Intuition, Systems & Reparenting Ourselves | Healing Beyond the Individual
What if your intuition isn’t just personal — but political?
In this episode, Sara sits down with Brittanie (therapist, long-time friend, and fellow systems-thinker) for a layered conversation about healing, intuition, and the systems that shape both.
We explore:
- Why healing spaces can feel inaccessible
- Intuition — and how systemic oppression shapes what feels “true”
- The political nature of somatic and body-based work
- Caregiving vs. caretaking (especially in the sandwich generation)
- How capitalism turns connection into transactions
- Telehealth vs. in-person therapy — what actually predicts effectiveness
- Reparenting and breaking intergenerational patterns
- Generational trauma and emotional maturity
- Why therapy outcomes hinge on safety and relationship
We also discuss a future deep dive into Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents by Lindsay C. Gibson — and how emotional immaturity echoes through systems, families, and culture.
This conversation weaves together personal stories (ADHD, motherhood, burnout, career calling) with larger questions:
Are systems the problem?
Or are they also the solution?
If you’re curious about reparenting, collective healing, intuition, attachment, or the intersection of therapy and culture — this is just the beginning.
