We Are Our Own Lovers is about the weird work of being in relationship with all of who we are. In each episode Kelsey (from The.Feral.Unfolding) explores the ways we are loving ourselves into authenticity, freedom, pleasure, and wild growth. Changing old stories we hold. Working to understand the complexities of our privilege. Liberating ourselves from internalized oppression. Processing and healing our trauma. Being accountable to ourselves and others in compassion and honesty. This is the deep work of being our own intimate partner. We are magic. Let’s go deeper, Lovers!
