Ep. 148: Community as an Antidote to Whiteness, Part 3: The Workplace

What if our workplaces actually felt like community?

In Part 3 of our series on community, we explore how the harmful patterns of whiteness and control show up in our work lives—and what it would take to build something more human.

We talk about:
 🌱 The 4 pillars of building real community at work
 🏢 Examples of companies that run without bosses or hierarchy (yes, really)
🌲 Tree communities that pass down trauma wisdom across generations
🇵🇹 Honest reflections on parenting, Portugal, and the pause of summer
💌 Listener letters on community fatigue, healing from harm, and feeling like you have nothing to offer

This episode is for anyone reimagining what leadership, belonging, and accountability can look like—in a system that wasn’t built for any of it.

✨ Join us in the work of replacing control with connection.
