“The planet is a big, daunting place. It's easy to feel at the whim of the universe. We've been convinced we are ineffectual at exacting any real change against our social systems and structures so instead, we land the guilt and blame squarely on the shoulders of the most accessible party, ourselves. This burden has kept us immobile in our own lives and oblivious to our impact in the world. The weight of the shame has kept us small and strapped in the belief that our bodies and our lives are mistakes. What an exhausting and disheartening way to live.”
