In Episode #17, Camille and Tanya share an honest and personal conversation about voice, voicelessness, and the future of Re-Storying the Culture. Tanya is rediscovering her voice following her ex-husband’s passing. At the same time, Camille feels called to her internal self, to mute her voice and listen for a while as new ideas gestate. How can these two close friends resist harmful narratives of Camille “abandoning” Tanya? By leaning into their individual truths, trusting each other, and returning to their original reason for creating the podcast. While Camille internalizes and quiets her voice, Tanya will expand her own voice and the conversation by bringing other people onto the podcast to share diverse perspectives on re-storying the culture. This new approach is centered on the leadership of many, honoring every person in the culture and creating space to share power and nurture new leaders for the future. It truly does take a village. Episode Transcript [00:00:01] Restoring the Culture is hosted by Tanya Taylor, Rubin's story mentor, and Camille Adair, family constellation facilitator. In this podcast, these long term friends explore how stories serve our lives. Their inquiry meanders into the realms of science, theater, health and consciousness. Moving the individual and global narratives forward as they draw upon their relationship as the laboratory for their experiments, in truth, so many of us feel isolated and alone in our deepest longing. Each one of us is necessary rediscovering the truth of our human story and listening to what is calling us forward so that we can restoring the culture together. [00:00:51] Hey, everyone, welcome to Restoring the Culture, I'm here with Tanya and looking forward to a conversation on voice or voice, lessness, voice of the voiceless. [00:01:05] And we're we're both out with that. And today, instead of reading a quote, we're going to communicate in a different way. And so if you'll just take a moment with us, we'll do this. This honoring and of sound. And then we'll come back to the podcast. [00:01:53] All right. Well, we're not musicians. That's for damn sure. [00:01:59] I was reading about how words began as sounds and so words sound used to sound like what they meant. [00:02:08] So I was trying to think of words that sounded like what they meant when they were still could inhabit, you know, the right hemisphere of the brain. A feeling right now thinking of the word cushion. I mean, that sounds like what it is cushion. You can feel the khush. But so many words have become just words to describe something rhyme. So they're becoming more objective and less subjective and. And that's part of us becoming less relational or less embodied, less in touch with our sensations. And that leads me to a conversation that Tanya and I just started having. And we're really both sensitive to the changes. In the field and my field, your field, the collective field. And when we started this podcast at the beginning of Kofod, our commitment really was to have honest, transparent conversations between us as friends and to make those public, you know, as an experiment. Is this going to serve? But how refreshing to be able to have conversations like that that have meaning to us instead of thinking, oh, we're gonna have a conversation about a topic. Because we think it's going to have meaning to other people. [00:03:36] And then we manufacture our thoughts based on what we think the outer world wants. Right. This was more about how do we share our inner world instead of manufacturing ourselves. We just share ourselves. And so. Right, one of the things that's starting to shift and change for me is that I feel like I'm being called to this. [00:03:57] I'm going in more internal and into a time of these sounds, these feelings. [00:04:05] And those don't always translate into conversations in the same way. [00:04:10] And so for the last couple days, I've just keep having this feeling about about not backing out altogether of this podcast because I want to support it. But how can I, in terms of the sisterhood, support this mission, support our friendship, support these messages when you add it to it. [00:04:30] And then we started talking about it. And you said after Stephen died, after 19 years, you have your voice back. And after a 19 year stretch for me, which we had never done the math on, you're unbelievable, Turnell. And I feel sort of mute in a good way, like I'm communicating in different ways and something is gestating inside of me. So one of our conversations that we're actually making public because we haven't worked all this out together. But we wanted to share it with you in the spirit of how and why we came together in this podcast is that I may take a step into the quiet under world and I might inhabit more of the voice of the voiceless. [00:05:12] And while Tanya's getting her voice, may be inviting some other people to come in as other other guests, that we've wanted to have diverse voices in here and take this opportunity like it doesn't have to be you or me. And a third voice. It can be me and another voice until things shift and perhaps shift again. Right, exactly. [00:05:35] We don't know. But it's really it's like this is part of that thing of listening to what's in to what's moving and what's wanting to happen next. And and I think it's this thing of being with the unknown. [00:05:51] It's such a powerful guide. I mean, it really is the next phase of leadership. I think totally early emerging. It's emerging somewhat in us. And I think this is really what we've been leading into for a long time. And I think it's actually like it's growing in us now. Right. It's this is leadership to listen. It is leadership to stand in the unknown and to actually not have the answers, but to be guided by what's happening within and around us and to speak to each other fearlessly. [00:06:26] That's right. Because people are so afraid of truth. And certainly back in our own history, yours and mine. Right. We've had times when we needed to have boundaries with each other or change something and we wanted to please each other. I mean, not just with you and I, of course, in our own lives, like this is what we've been conditioned to do. [00:06:47] The people policing versus, oh, I didn't plan on this, but life wants me to go some place. [00:06:56] Slightly different now or I'm being called to do this in service to my own soul and it doesn't quite make sense. And the outer world. Right. [00:07:05] Right. Mine doesn't make sense in the outer world at all. [00:07:09] And I really am so grateful that you hear me and that you understand it for what it is and that it isn't another story. It is this story. And that. It's just as valid for me not to speak as it is for you to speak. Exactly. No, totally. I mean, it's like the truth isn't truly and how we give voice to that truth, whether, you know, I did a checkout today in my constellation training and I had us check in with a sound and check out with a word or a sound. And I found myself humming along Labi. And it took me to such a deep place to look at all these faces of these people I care so much about on my screen and my class. And to be humming this lullaby and to have that be my way that I exit. I think we're so much needing to connect in these deeper ways right now. Right. And I feel like I'm going into some underground preparatory school for something that I don't know about what it is completely. [00:08:13] I mean, and I see that. I see it in myself. [00:08:16] I see. New ways of being are really springing up at almost cut coming from our last conversation. Restring 2020, it's like like we've been stretched around how to connect on screens with people all over the world in an intimate rather than a compromised way. [00:08:39] And so when you talk about humming the lullaby, like we're being called to go deeper with our imagination out to the greater aspects of consciousness. Right. And find that we're actually together, we're actually can stay close. [00:08:57] Even Mahvish, all these shifts happen. We can stay close while you are quiet and I'm speaking. [00:09:04] That's right. That's right. [00:09:06] You know that we can take these different journeys. I think this is what I want to say, because you and I started this podcast and we've we have worked the edges of restoring our friendship for 20, 21 years now. [00:09:21] And our friendship should have been lost many times by conventional or ego standards because we've had different ways of being different ways of acting out or suppressing our own trauma. [00:09:35] Different things with mother issues and female issues. So in in restoring our friendship, which is what I feel is the original intent. [00:09:46] How can I support you in going quiet without making up a story about abandonment or that I can't do it alone or that you don't care as much about me? What I'm saying is the myths we put on top of people's soul truth stops us from doing what we need to do, which is always put that soul truth first and create relationships where we're safe to speak them and allow them and be uncomfortable without the split. You and I talk about the split. There's so many reasons that we find from an ego point of view to go into the split when in reality, if we support each other in following our own souls, what greater possibility of love comes out of that or even creation in the future that we can't even imagine? Right. [00:10:46] I think that's right. And I think that we're doing it. I would say to answer that question, the first one that comes to me that's most obvious as friends is pick up the phone if you're feeling. If any of that starts coming up for you. Just pick up the phone and I'll remind you. I would say the other thing is that it you know, in terms of the lineage of this podcast, it started out as a podcast between two friends. Totally. And all we do is speak the truth. This Calzada ride with Camille and Tanya, right? That's the order that we wrote it in. Camille and Tanya with a small C small T right wrist. And now I'm saying I'm going to do some. [00:11:29] I'm going to just stay for a while, you know. Can you carry restoring the culture and invite other people in? [00:11:35] And then I just say I'll be there in spirit. Remember me? Invite me on some time, call me and say I want to do a podcast about this. You may not be on it. Is there anything that you would add to the conversation? I mean, I'd love to stay close to it totally. [00:11:51] And that is the restoring process, right? [00:11:54] Hey, the toxic old culture we're moving out of is the one that can't hold different needs at different times. [00:12:03] And then what it does and as part of the split is then it puts people into exile. Right. You're either in or you're out for pressure. Right. Those are false dualities. Tim doesn't have to be in or out. It's just the truth that we started this together. And now I'm going to take some time to go into my voice soullessness because something else is growing inside of me that's really important that I listen to. [00:12:29] And you are coming into a time where you're going to be talking and having more conversations of restoring the culture with other people, that it will be in service to restoring the culture. [00:12:39] And if we're both in service to restoring the culture, then we know we're in the right place. No problem. Totally. You're both standing behind restoring the culture as the founders. [00:12:50] That will never change, but it doesn't mean you can't take it and carry it. [00:12:55] And I trust you to do that. [00:12:57] And I'm really grateful that you trust me to go underground for a while and just take something that can't come into words yet. So it will come into words, but I can't speak it until it's ready to be born. [00:13:10] Exactly. Now. Totally. [00:13:12] And what does that look like for you? I'm curious about the how how it would be restored for you between us. [00:13:20] Well, I think just even a deeper commitment to the divine directives that are coming through. It's very clear to me that right now you and I are both so highly aligned with our intuitive selves and our souls that are guiding us to individual purposes, manifested in us in great service in the world and. [00:13:48] And outright honoring that that that is why we're choosing to shift the form that it's not from any old story. It's from the new story of what does it look like to just radically allow ourselves to change any outer stories to serve the soul because the soul is guiding. [00:14:10] So for me, I think it means just following, like honoring the genesis of this is about our relationship and that energetically you're still in the field as a. [00:14:26] I wanted to say fairy godmother because I was looking at you with your red lipstick and I thought, you look like a fairy godmother today. Anyway, you know, it's like you're here and present. [00:14:39] And so it's honoring that presence of who you are. And I think just trusting that directive that what I hear you saying is you're trusting the directive of my soul right now to invite the people I'm most drawn to talking to. [00:14:56] And I sort of have this feeling that in the future, it could end up being a vehicle once again for you to invite in some of the people your most strong to talking. Right. Right. [00:15:05] You know, we can play with what that me can play with it, because now we've so established our voices here and who we are and what we're about, we can play. But for me, the vision is to just keep following the desires of my soul, the dictates of my soul in terms. [00:15:22] And asking other people, bringing in other diverse wisdom from different voices, people of a different gender or people of, you know, maybe who are non binary with their gender, who knows people of different backgrounds, different levels of expertize, both inner and outer diversity. Right. What is their vision of restoring? [00:15:44] Cause to me, where we're building a new culture that's based on our abilities, many different abilities of others who are also drawn to restoring the culture, who see the big sort of systemic issues and have different gifts to bring to the table because it's such a big inquiry. [00:16:08] Right? It's it started out small, but it's so big. [00:16:11] Interesting, because this is reminding me of, you know, I had a couple different midwives for solace. You were the first midwife in the very beginning of my movie. And then my friend Sylvia was a midwife toward the end of the movie. She helped me create a nonprofit. [00:16:32] You know, she really I mean, the last year of that push of editing and, you know, getting it ready to to move out and to be born. Right. Right. You know, I had a midwife in the beginning and a midwife at the end. [00:16:46] And I was thinking about that, you know, that maybe some, you know, in different ways were midwife things, something tons of heart of the story of the podcast of of what's happening here. And that that's a that's a special place. Right. And medicine and midwives don't stick around in the same capacity forever. Right. Right. They change and changes. Yes. And it can be purposeful to be in a place for a time. And and that role can change, right? I mean, it can evolve and it can change. Yeah, that's it. [00:17:17] I guess that is sort of the big takeaway for me is just feeling more comfortable being in the unknown and being willing to go with the change without having to know why. I don't exactly know why, but I'm getting this directive that's pretty loud and I think it has to do with a new time I'm going into at the same time that you're coming into a new time. [00:17:38] It's so fascinating. We hadn't talked about these 19, 20 year cycles, you know, until today, until today in the pot, right before the last podcast. [00:17:47] And and then and we've known each other for a little longer than that. So we have the privilege of the entire 19 years. I mean, I knew Stephen before he was. Yes. Schizophrenic, you know. Yes. Before I got married. Yes. It's really interesting, right, that we have known each other through two big chapters, you know. [00:18:11] Well, huge stories. And it's funny. It's true. When you said. [00:18:15] Yeah, I mean, I remember I mean, playing that role for you with the film and supporting you and coming to some interviews and I think helping facilitate the connection with Grant through and and Dara. [00:18:30] That's exactly right. You know, like those things that have to happen. And then now, OK, we're getting something new here in this form. [00:18:38] And yeah, I think it's I mean, I think it's a great metaphor to use. [00:18:43] Oh, and I was going to say that now when I work with people on their books, I say to. People, there's an illusion. You're going to have one person take you all the way through. But the way I've set it up with my team, I say you really need a story mentor to make sure you've got a story really worth telling. You need a coach, a writing coach who's going to show up every week like the midwife and get you through. Then you're going to need a different person to be that editor because they've really got to have that literary background to be a professional editor and then somebody who's going to help you get it published. So here it is. It's like, you know, same thing in a solo show. It's like you need the director and you know, you need the coach. You need the director. [00:19:23] There's a whole thing, the people backstage and that these one person projects. Right. That's so of this culture to assist in it when it's just really this beautiful circle of souls that always comes together that makes anything significant happen, no matter who's the one that's the quote unquote face of the project. [00:19:46] Well, it reminds me of that saying it takes a village, right? It takes a village to raise a child. [00:19:50] I've been thinking about that in terms of, you know, the depth psychology community. It really takes a village to grow, you know, someone in this kind of a container to do this work. [00:20:06] It takes years and it tears more than one person and it takes time to raise a child. [00:20:13] And in even when I think about like a friendship or a marriage or a business, you know, you have so many false dualities that say it's going to be one person. There are many ways that we get to love and there are many ways that we get to prosperity and there are many ways that we get to feeling fulfilled in friendship, right? Yes. Doesn't have to come through one face. And I remember. [00:20:43] You know, you and I used to talk about a couple years ago, we started talking about the new face of leadership and we were seeing a sea of faces right there, that that is the new face of leadership is the money. So it's kind of taking me full circle to that metaphor of it takes a village. [00:20:58] And when we know it takes a village, our only job is to listen so that we know when and where our right places in terms of serving the mission as a village person. Yeah. [00:21:09] I love that as a villager. Truly, again. And that's the thing, too, about I'm reading an amazing book right now called Sand Talk on Indigenous Leadership. [00:21:20] And it's the circle, right? It is the talking circle. [00:21:24] It's everybody being honored. It's indigenous wisdom from every corner called the Earth. [00:21:31] It's Pande Cultural. [00:21:33] And yeah, it's just making me think how if we're in right relationship and we talk about matriarchal circles, it's there. There's always we're just villagers. And that that's the new leadership where we're villagers. [00:21:48] And what's our right place at any given time. And then allowing that to shift. And one thing, can I just share one thing that came up like about American like power? [00:21:59] We were such we're grabbers of power and then we try to hold on to the power. [00:22:04] You know, last night and and this isn't to discredit at all the amazing contributions and the culture of Justice Ginsburg, who died yesterday, two days ago. [00:22:15] But she had an opportunity when Obama was in office to retire and have him replace her. And she stayed. [00:22:25] And and now, you know, there's this whole disruptive thing about on the wrong side gets to replace her. Well, all of us. And this goes so beyond red and blue, as you and I have talked about. [00:22:36] This is about power. And when we hold on to power, we and I see this in myself. [00:22:43] I understand it. I'm out of my space as a villager. And when I'm also reluctant to step into my power, I may be out of my places. A village or in the divine sense. Right. I see us almost like divine chess pieces not being manipulated, but rather being led in and out of different roles in the circle in Western culture is like hold on to that power forever. [00:23:07] You know, it's like it's a power grab and you know, and that's so much about the split in our culture rather than we can share. [00:23:15] And also, sometimes it's time to mentor younger people and to power other people into power. [00:23:21] Well, that's really where it's up for me. It's whether it's chronological age or it's going to be a new experience for some of us. Right. Right. That it's something is showing up for them. [00:23:32] And I think. That's I mean, it really is I feel like my. I feel like I've been turned inside out like I'm going to be somebodies teacher on some level, I feel like then I share their karma. [00:23:47] It's a big deal. Yes. To step in to train someone or teach them this isn't little stuff. Right. These are on some level like soul contracts that come in. And it is it's a big deal if you're really listening and you're really honoring, you know, the potential for what can grow inside of that kind of relationship. Not to say that there are boundaries and clear beginnings and endings and graduations because those things are really important. [00:24:13] But I do think that. We're just so much more connected than we recognize. And I think somehow maybe we're waking up to more of our connectedness, and that's a beautiful thing, which means we're really here to serve each other. [00:24:30] Period. Period. I don't care what the power structure is. Yeah. We're here to serve each other. And if we get off that track, we're going to suffer. [00:24:39] Period. Exactly. No. And it feels so important to me to just say, if we're being called to teacher lead in any way, you damn well better have trusted peers and allies as well as elders are self on this side or the other side of the veil. It's really important we turn to regularly to stay in our integrity because there are so many ways we can take missteps around our power. [00:25:09] Because that's right. How we've been conditioned, Frank. [00:25:12] That's right. And I think in a way, you know, it takes me back to my hospice days like this is all death and dying work, you know. Yeah. I mean, it's like we should all be in a process of succession planning. Yeah, for sure. I'll be 55 on my next birthday, but I can't tell you. I'm thinking every day I think about, you know, my my own process of succession planning as part of my dying process. [00:25:36] And, you know, that time setting up have been setting up my new business plan with the woman I've been mentoring for seven years. [00:25:43] Like bringing her in closer and bringing her in with other teachers on my team and older people and also honoring her own wisdom as a millennial. [00:25:54] But like, you know, we're having these conversations that I'm having these conversations with everyone on my team. That and even changing the name of my business from Taryn Taylor Rubenstein to sematic writing, because I want sematic writing to go on beyond me. [00:26:10] So. Right. [00:26:11] You know, and we you and I have talked about that with our potential work together, perhaps in the future, like how if we're not thinking in a systems way that can be in the greater service, we're missing huge opportunities and actually missing our part of real power, of being able to lead people in to sustainable practices that can deepen and deepen and deepen over time, whether we're here or not. [00:26:44] That's exactly right. And then then it's I find when I when I am in that place, it's such a great relief. Like the seduction tells us, there's not going to be enough. So we have to hold on to what's ours and be known when you let go of that. That's where the relief as you just it's like then it's like you just want to push other people up. That's really our greatest way of being. My God service and being as being known is to become somebody else's root system. Like, how do we become nourishment for the root so that these plants keep growing in this human world or in the, you know, the human ocean? [00:27:20] It's so I mean, I even see it in my business. I've been trying to play roles that aren't mine because it's not just my business. Right. [00:27:28] It's such a relief when I bring in other people to take that over. And it makes me bigger, not smaller. But noticing, you know, the fear from the ego around delegation, around spreading money around whatever, but like really standing behind myself allows for. [00:27:46] The spaciousness of others certain. [00:27:50] I want to kind of end my part with sharing a little story about succession planning and how surprising it can be because we don't always see the fruits of our of our service and our love. [00:28:03] Right. And I when I first started teaching in Nashville, there was a young woman who took one year of training for me. And it was before I put the whole program together and knew that I, you know, my way would be, you know, three different levels in order to really serve people. [00:28:17] And it was OK because that was a work in progress, it was evolutionary. But she. So this was three years ago. She recently had a baby who I think now is about four months old, and she sent me the most incredible video of her in the shower with her daughter, and she's holding her cat, her iPhone up. [00:28:39] And while she's making a little video of her baby girl, she's saying all these healing words to her like, you are my daughter. I am your mother. I see you. You belong. And the baby literally was like the look on her face every time this young woman would speak. This baby looked like she was like in this rapture, Jolie. It was just the most incredible thing. And I thought. I never in a million years would have guessed that that Constellation training would become such an integral part of how this young woman would become a mother. We did constellations while she was pregnant. We did a constellation before she conceived for this baby. Amazing. MIA So like I just thought, oh, wow. What is the ripple effect? We don't know. But it's such it's such a testament to saying true staying true to what our calling is, even if that calling takes us underground for a while as mine is doing. Right. Yeah. [00:29:51] And even if that calling manifests in the world in the last year of our life. [00:29:56] Exactly. You know, I had a I had an amazing acting teacher, Bill Hickey, when I was young in New York. And he was just always this sort of outsider character, you know? And oh, my God, he was incredible. So he would always talk about every story is a love story. You know, he was that guy I've told you about, you know. [00:30:15] And he was like 70 years old. [00:30:17] And he was like it just looked like he was always just going to be this amazing marginal teacher who every now and then got a role, a small character role on or off Broadway. [00:30:29] But, you know, and then at that at like 70 years old, he just he got put in a film and was nominated for an Oscar. He didn't win. But I remember watching him. You know, he had a shock of gray hair and his bow tie was like askew cause he was kind of just one of those. He almost looked like a homeless person, you know, dripping in his tuxedo like 90 pounds. I cried when I saw him. [00:30:53] But then from that opportunity, he worked as an actor constantly in film and movies for the rest of his life. And he never became a household word. But I always thought there he was like from 70 to 80. And after all those years of being so devoted to his craft and his students and his love of acting and his mastery, bam, you know, there it happened. [00:31:20] But even if he'd hadn't, he would've been on Bank Street teaching the classes, coming late to class, eat drinking because his whiskey out of his thermos. Right. [00:31:30] Because goes house, you wouldn't have been any less secure when you can as one person and so on. And it's a contributor. That's right. Right. [00:31:37] So it's like the devotion to our souls journey. [00:31:41] And if we ever waver from it to just come back, come back, come back, and the deepening deepening is going to take us where we go, no matter what happens at the outside in the world. Right. [00:31:54] You know, you look a great like Van Gogh who didn't sell a painting in his lifetime. And 100 years later, you walk into the Louver, his he's still present. Why are you laughing? [00:32:09] Oh, he's awake. You know. Well, I'm glad we'll still be laughing together. [00:32:16] I may not laugh for a while on this podcast, but I want to say it's really been an honor and a privilege to be a part of this. And. And I leave it with you. [00:32:29] I'll take it from you, Camille. And you win. And we'll just say in terms of the outer story, always to be continued to continue and to you and to yeah. [00:32:40] To all our listeners. Just know I'll be bringing on some amazing people in this during your inquiry. [00:32:47] In the meantime and I want to just give a special thank you shout out to Grant Taylor, my dear friend, and and the person who's been editing these podcasts for now. And he is a friend of both of ours. And he's another 19, 20 year relationship and a totally f part creative partner. [00:33:08] Well, wait. That was when we met him through. [00:33:10] And a Darah. Exactly right. A year ago. So much gratitude to Gray. [00:33:15] I know. I know. All right. Big love. [00:33:24] Thank you for joining Camille and Tanya for this episode of Restoring the Culture.

How Capital one pioneered as bank moving into AWS Cloud? What immediate security challenges does Cloud Security in a Hybrid world look like, without going into tools. Do you prefer to use AWS native tools for security observability or a vendor product? What are some of the Security challenges to solve when looking at a large cloud landscape? (threat detection at scale, continuous compliance etc) Is accountability a challenge for Cloud at Scale? Does this change quite a bit for security in one cloud compared to another? (resources that know multiple cloud etc) Which approach do you recommend - Standardizing security vs Operationalize and Manage with more staff for effective security across multi-cloud environments? Immediate challenges around multi-cloud - Maintaining visibility of assets and secure configurations in a large multi-cloud environment What does detection and prevention look like in a cloud landscape? How do you keep track of all the AWS services?

In Episode #16, Camille and Tanya explore opportunities for silver linings in the many challenges we are all facing this year by radically re-storying 2020. Tanya shares a deeply personal story of her ex-husband’s 19-year struggle with mental illness and recent suicide. Stephen’s death is tragic, but it has also provided a needed release for his family and loved ones, who felt like they had lost him years ago. From mental illness to concentration camp memoirs to activism, over-identifying with the victim or the perpetrator can cause us to lose ourselves in our trauma. When we are out of our power, we cannot help or support each other. In the short term, 2020 may seem like the year from hell, but in the long term it may lead to needed clarity. Tanya and Camille each share what they have lost and gained this year and how the challenges of 2020 have led them to reclaim their wholeness. “When the worst happens...there is still the opportunity for incredible blessing through connection. That's what can't be taken: our connection with ourselves and with each other.” -Tanya Taylor Rubinstein Episode Transcript [00:00:01] Restoring the Culture is hosted by Tanya Taylor, Rubinstein Story mentor, and Camille Adair, family constellation facilitator. [00:00:11] In this podcast, these long term friends explore how stories servi lives. Their inquiry meanders into the realms of science, theater, health and consciousness, moving the individual and global narratives forward as they draw upon their relationship as the laboratory for their experiments. In truth, so many of us feel isolated and alone in our deepest longing. [00:00:38] Each one of us is necessary rediscovering the truth of our human story and listening to what is calling us forward so that we can restoring the culture together. [00:00:52] Hey, everybody, this is Tonya. And welcome back to another episode of Restoring the Culture with my dear friend Camille Adair and me. And today we are going to talk about radically restoring 20/20 and what that means to us. [00:01:11] And Camille's going to start with a little passage from Victor Frankel's man's search for meaning. [00:01:19] But in robbing the prison of its reality there lay a certain danger. [00:01:26] It became easy to overlook the opportunities to make something positive of camp life opportunities, which really did exist. [00:01:39] Leaves me speechless, right? [00:01:42] Amazing. Yeah, this speak by leaving us speechless. Sort of not unlike this year. Right. [00:01:49] There's a lot of speechlessness. And I think I mean, to think if you could find a silver lining. [00:01:56] And living in a concentration camp, surely we can find silver linings. For 20/20 with. [00:02:08] The pandemic. With massive fires, with many deaths from the pandemic. [00:02:17] With social isolation and the wave of depression that's resulting from that increased suicides. Right. [00:02:27] I mean, we can pay the the dark picture, but what's underneath it that's wanting to get our attention? I'd love to know your thoughts on that. Mm hmm. [00:02:38] Well, thanks for asking. It's such a huge. [00:02:42] Such a huge topic that we're biting off here. [00:02:46] And I just want to say to our listeners, as always, there's no dogma here. [00:02:51] There's no agenda here. [00:02:55] We just let you all in on our personal exploration, which is what Camille and I have been doing and our friendship for 20 years. So, I mean, it's it's a humbling thing. It's interesting that you chose Victor Frankl, because I have been moved to. [00:03:12] I've been rereading Elie Wiesel's night and day, also concentration camp memoirs. I'm thinking about the children at the border and concentration camps and also reading about the forced sterilization of people of color, women of color in Georgia. And you know just what's happening in this moment. Right. So I just want to first acknowledge this moment, September 20th, 2020, a couple days after Ruth Bader Ginsburg died. That being in the news also. Right. Right after Rosh Hashana. Right after Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. So and in the midst of it all were 40, I think 45 or 46 days from the U.S. presidential election. So so why are we both being called to return to Holocaust stories now? [00:04:06] It's like. Well, I think about Steven. Yeah. If we read story, what's going on personally, right? I mean, that takes me to the personal. [00:04:15] Well, it's very interesting. So Stephen was my is my was my daughter's father, and he committed suicide. [00:04:24] This in the last three weeks ago today. [00:04:30] And he had schizoaffective disorder. [00:04:33] He was. Jewish. [00:04:38] From L.A., sort of the nice Jewish boy stereotype or a trope or whatever, but he really was that very, very brilliant and. [00:04:51] His family had Holocaust drama on his father's side. I think this is what I want to say about all of it. What I want to come back to when you asked me that question. OK. There's trauma. We are a traumatized society where traumatized culture, we're traumatized species. And I think about like the Peter Levine work about in our animal self and our nervous systems, how animals have been attending to their trauma and had because of our mindset and because of things we talk about patriarchy, white supremacy and on and on colonization, all the things that have kept us in boxes and how those things traumatize us individually and collectively. So how do we seek liberation? [00:05:44] In the camps while holding space to get out of the camps. How do rats, how do we open to liberation in the prison of our trauma? Wow. Walking our way out of that trauma to the best of our ability. [00:06:02] I guess I'm curious to know in what way have you been released from a concentration camp since Stephen died? [00:06:10] Such a great question. Well. The love was liberated. The mental illness and his trauma. [00:06:22] Played into my own trauma when I lost my daughter's father and it was in a very traumatic so circumstance and what it did was it triggered my trauma and I started getting panic attacks. I stopped performing my own. One woman shows I became afraid to speak about my life publicly onstage when that had been my art form before. And I became terrified that something would happen to my daughter. It felt life or death to me. [00:06:57] When I saw what happened to Schizophrenic's, what I saw, there was no Stephen unknown in his eyes. [00:07:05] And he was trying to strangle me on my daughter's fourth birthday. And it was that was not who he was in any shape or form. You know, I said to you earlier. He was the least racist. Most feminists that I knew about in the best sense of the word, the least homophobic, white, cis straight man I ever met. He was truly committed to social justice. [00:07:29] He had been an anti-apartheid advocate when when he was in Berkeley as a young man. And he was just so about justice and about love. But when I lost him and this is the help mental illness, when you're on the other side of it and of course, for the person is we lose the ability to access. [00:07:51] But what happened was that trauma cut off my voice. [00:07:55] And like I was saying to you, as soon as he died, there was total grief. I smashed my finger really hard that night and had to go to the emergency room the night before. He jumped that night, that same night. And I smash my grandmother's wedding ring that I always wore the diamonds into my finger and it was bleeding and had to be cut off by the doctor. And a few hours later he'd jumped and there was some kind of cosmic connection. But and I screamed when when that finger was hurt, I screamed like this, this hellacious scream that I only remember screaming twice before and once had to do with his suicide attempt before. [00:08:44] Oh, wow. So. I think we're all cosmically connected. I know it, I know it in my being. I. [00:08:55] I think the support from the other side of the veil is greater than it's ever been teaching us, showing me personally that the connection and the love is always there. [00:09:07] All the ancestral work, both you and I have done all the personal healing work. I like to come to that the love is always there and that we can move back and forth the Brit across the bridge. And I love what Victus Franco says and Elie Wiesel to a different story. [00:09:23] But this thing of the opportunity of the present moment, even in the worst of circumstances, to me that's radical radical resilience. So how in 2020, you know, the year people are calling the hell a year. [00:09:40] How can we restore it to see the incredible opportunities to be in service to each other, to love each other more at this time? [00:09:52] Well, it's interesting. As I hear you talk, one of the ways that I wonder about. This restoring for you and for me, I met Stephen. Fortunately knew him before his mental illness. Yeah. You know, set sat in. One of the things that strikes me is that you refer to him as the father of your daughter. He was your husband. And I remember that hit me when you told me that he died, that he suicided. [00:10:25] I remember at 4:00, as sad as I was for your daughter, I was sad for you because you lost a husband who you divorced only because of his mental his untreated mental illness. You didn't divorce Steven. You divorced his mental illness. [00:10:47] It's a very interesting thing you are saying. [00:10:52] And because I was thinking yesterday, I mean, I wrote something up and I said, I don't have a problem. [00:11:02] With white people, I have a problem with whiteness. I don't have a problem. [00:11:08] I never did with Stephen. I have the problem with mental illness. [00:11:11] If we can separate out the toxicity, whether it's individual or cultural, and of course, it's not just toxicity that sounds so harsh. [00:11:21] It's a byproduct of trauma. All of it. [00:11:24] Well, and because of that, every race has that trauma, which absolutely watching that makes it really hard and how we language all of this. Right. [00:11:35] It's why I'm reading this book right now, my grandmother's hands. [00:11:38] And it's about racialized trauma and the pathways to mending our hearts and bodies. And it talks about the different things we need to do if we're in white bodies versus black bodies because it's all DNA memory from our own clusters. [00:11:53] And that's different. It takes on a different tone and tenor. [00:11:59] That's right. That makes a lot of sense to me. [00:12:02] You know, just like schizophrenia takes on a different tenor than somebody who loses somebody to drug addiction or somebody who loses somebody to cancer. There's all there's a loss and all those things. But there's a different human story right attached to it, which is why, once again, the thing you and I talk about the as above so below path. [00:12:25] But yes. And Steven was my husband. He was my best friend for sure. We shared values in a profound way, which was the only reason I agreed to have a child with him. I wasn't sure I wanted a child. I wasn't one of those women that always knew they'd have a child. It was his idea. And I was 32 when I got pregnant and. [00:12:53] The love once again is released and I feel him helping me. You were the one that said to me it's like after 19 years of losing him to mental illness. [00:13:04] I got the FA. I got the other parent back. That's right. Yeah. Yeah. You have him back? [00:13:11] I have him back as the other parent. And I do want to say that was always more our natural relationship was friendship and co parent. [00:13:20] It wasn't some big love affair on either side. There was love, but we felt familial immediately when we met. We felt so deeply familial. And in many ways I'd say, yeah, definitely like co parents and best friends. And so that's the honest energy of us. And I can own the honest energy of us because I think we spent a lot of time. We had problems besides his schizophrenia. That was what took us down. [00:13:52] But there was definitely a trying to make our relationship a big love affair, and it wasn't. [00:14:01] And so there's something to about like that was conflict in our relationship that had nothing to do with his mental illness. [00:14:06] We were great co parents and best friends. And we have a beautiful daughter together, a beautiful, brilliant daughter. [00:14:17] So I wonder, what is the relationship? I mean, I'm not saying there's an answer to this, because the most profound wisdom is I think at these in these days is held in the unknown. But I guess I want to skirt the edges of an inquiry which is feeling into the relationship between covered and Stevens, the timing of Stevens death. [00:14:40] Well, then I want to hear from you. The relationship between Kofod and everything that's changed in your life because, yes, like, well, people are saying 20-20 right is the worst year, the year from hell. And I would say through the Ecos lens. [00:14:57] That's the truth. [00:14:59] I mean, from the souls lands and from the long stories lands, because that's what we're here for, right? The long story, my friend and teacher, right now, produ taffin talks all the time about the long story of the soul and all the threads past, present, future, quantum time, no matter what's going on in the body now. [00:15:23] So in the long story, I feel like 2020 is a blessing. I could never say it will be a blessing that my daughter's father was in that much pain and that he had to end his life, felt he had to end his life that way. [00:15:41] But the the liberation that I feel personally and that that knowing he is also free of that suffering, there's like I feel like there's an outbreath. [00:15:53] And I was talking with his mother about it like that we're all taking an outbreath cause and eat and, you know, like we know how the story ends now. And there's something holding with that that's so hard. I think it's a metaphor for this time. [00:16:07] The tension part of what the tension of those 19 years did teach me was holding with the tension, not knowing the ending of the story. And it's hard to hold with that tension. [00:16:22] And then the story changed, right? It didn't really. And it changed. [00:16:28] Yeah, well, it reminds me of the living dead. I mean, I think it's that way with people, you know, who have Alzheimer's or dementia. [00:16:35] Yes. Yes. People with with severe mental illness, untreated mental illness. [00:16:41] People with, you know, late stage substance abuse addiction. I think it's like the person left a long time ago. And so what you are left with is this body that is acting things out in certain ways and a voice that may still sound like them. And, of course, their soul is still there in some way. [00:17:01] But the relationship that we had was interrupted. [00:17:08] Exactly. And and they become unavailable for a long time for the relationship. And it's actually in the release of the body that the love, the availability comes back. So for me, in terms of 20/20. Right, so many deaths. [00:17:24] And I think we're seeing like. The death culture we live in, the extreme materialism, the extreme pressure on us all to do something. Be something the. My God, the struggles, you know, and where it's taken us at this moment in humanity around the big issues and that the intimacy issues. So I don't know. But I just know you have for me that there's a clarity. [00:17:59] And I have my voice back in a way, and I feel him supporting me. And so what happens? Like Victor Frankl in the camps. What happens when the worst happens? And there is still this opportunity. For incredible blessing through connection, right? That's what can't be taken if we have connection with ourselves and with each other. [00:18:26] I think that's been the silver lining for me, even though the process has been hard, very hard at times, is that it's forced me inward, right? It's like I was traveling a lot. I had a lot of ways in which I was had developed really sophisticated coping mechanisms for some things that were difficult for me to face. [00:18:46] And. [00:18:48] And we all do that. Right. I mean, it's not a bad thing. That's like kind of some part of human brilliance is that we we find our ways. Right. [00:18:56] And and then to be someone who loves to travel and loves to engage with a lot of people. [00:19:02] And then here I am. And my you know, I mean, what is it? [00:19:06] It's like maybe 14 by 14 foot office where I spend most of my time. And so it has definitely driven me inside of myself. [00:19:18] And. [00:19:20] I have to be careful, right, that I don't get lost. [00:19:23] But I also feel like, you know, we've been moving into such a different direction in our culture. Right. [00:19:31] We've been doing this inflationary move for so long around, get bigger, get louder, be more visible. Right. And I feel like something's happened for me where I'm going into this reverse place and I'm finally I'm fine. And it's happening organically. It's not been something I've contemplated. It just is happening because of the circumstances. But it's become so deep for me that it's like I'm going. [00:20:00] I'm going into almost like a gestational phase. And I think it's really good. I mean, I think that that's really the blessing of it. Right. [00:20:09] It's and it's amazing. And you and I talked about it's almost like we're like the sliding doors because I realize her to me really went small and small for me. Doesn't necessarily look like small for somebody else. Like somebody could look at me and say, that's not small, that's big. But for me, I contained for 19 years and it was a big deal when I stopped performing and felt a lot of fear about what had always come naturally to me and what I'd been trained in as an actor. [00:20:40] And I know that right now, as you're going in, my call is to show up with my team now in the world and to lean all the way and with my voice and what I learned and what I've integrated. And all of a sudden there's a congruency in my voice that hasn't been there before. There was like fragmented. [00:21:02] I had parts of myself, but I actually feel that I have my whole self back. Maybe for the first time since I was a young child. [00:21:14] You know, it's interesting when I think about because you said you lost your voice when Steven's mental illness came as to play, right? Yeah. [00:21:20] And I think that there are many ways which in which the soul can become entangled. And it's not just past and future can be in the present. [00:21:29] But it almost makes me wonder if part of you. [00:21:34] Was occupying a space with Steven. And that that's part of where your voice went, was sort of in accompanying him in a way where he was at. Like, could there have been almost some kind of an entanglement in the present moment? That isn't about time, but it is about space and conditions, right? [00:21:53] Yes, there totally was. And you're so intuitive to ask that question, because what I got. And I haven't said to anybody out loud was when he tried to strangle me because his schizophrenia had kicked in. He was looking in my eyes and tried to strangle me and kill me on my daughter's fourth birthday. Somebody had to stop driving by and pull them off. And from my point of view, there was no conflict. Then I looked in his eyes that I went, Oh, Steven's gone mad. There's no Steven there. Nobody. He didn't have his diagnosis shed. Nobody believed me. But I knew there was something that was. I'm a cop, cautious with my words here, because it's not going to sound maybe politically correct, but there was an energy in him that was very. [00:22:47] Evil. It looks like a demon to me. And I met its gaze cause it was a Steven, I met this energies gaze and. The night Stephen died, when I set my finger was smashed and I yelled. There was that energy came out of me in the scream. [00:23:14] And it scared my scared my current husband. And I felt it come through my eyes. [00:23:20] And I looked up, said like Steven looked at me and I was like some part of me. I swallowed part of the energy perhaps for him. And it was suppressing me. [00:23:35] I mean, it was wild. And then when I when I heard about his death, I knew immediately the energy that had come out of me the night before that. [00:23:44] Like in quantum time before he jumped, I was released from that energy. [00:23:50] It makes a lot of sense and, you know, it's interesting because in one of the traditions I work in schizophrenia because of schizophrenia is an identification with both the victim and the perpetrator. [00:24:04] Well, Steven told me getting back to the Holocaust, I had a very, very strong belief and a past life memory that I was put to death in the camps as a Jewish pope, Polish woman. Steven had a very strong belief that he was a guard, a Nazi guard in the camps. [00:24:24] Really? Well, what's really interesting, when we think back on Victor Frankl, he that's well, that was his sanity. Was that. [00:24:32] He didn't identify with the perpetrators. He also didn't identify with the victims. He stayed, Victor. [00:24:41] So, like, how do we remain who we are amidst all of the turmoil is happening in the world and stay ourselves when we when we identify with the victim or the perpetrator. [00:24:54] It's like we don't even recognize that we literally have stepped in to some kind of like a toxic field. [00:25:04] Perdita would call it a puddle. [00:25:07] She calls it like we step in the puddle of our issue and our ancestral issue, perhaps. And certainly for me. [00:25:15] That has happened with particularly my activist self, like Around Black Lives Matter. And my relationship to really decolonizing myself and whiteness. But there was a point when I over identified with black women's pain. And then when we when I realized when I did that I was out of my power. I was actually out of even being useful to them. And it was I was re traumatizing myself. I also wasn't in deep relationship then. And you could always tell. I could always tell on social media, like white women who are just sort of like I just want to say kissing ass to black women. [00:25:54] And they're they're out of their power. They just think, now I've got to give all my power away. [00:26:00] I can't. And when the reality is it's not an intimate relationship unless we can actually address these things and talk about them. Right. So there's so many ways, so many puddles. [00:26:13] We can step in and be outside of our integrity, around the power we do carry. And being honest about it because of our overidentification with the victim or the perpetrator. And I do think in our culture we celebrate overidentification with victimhood. It's really hard to support ourselves in each other and standing actually and owning our full power. Right. And you and I have talked about the self victim. [00:26:39] Identifying with the victim leads to entitlement and then we become the perpetrator. Right. I mean, it really is. They really are on the same continuum. Yes. They're not separate continuums. They're completely related. [00:26:51] It's a different paradigm. And they we move back and forth between victim, perpetrator and inner victim, outer victim, inner perpetrator out of victim. Right. It's a different paradigm to say I'm here. I'm here with my ancestors. I'm here. I'm right. Relationships are willing to become right. [00:27:08] Relationship with everybody. Right. I mean, and it's messy. I do want to say it's not a linear process in my experience. Right. [00:27:17] Right. [00:27:19] So what else do you want to say about 2020, 20-20, like, what is your what is your wisdom? Like, if you had to distill it of like what you've gotten so far from this year and perhaps your hope moving forward, I think. [00:27:37] One of the things that's happened for me is that I've given myself permission to really have more limitation, like in awe. [00:27:50] It's almost like the pathway to me for me to unfold in my fullness is by saying, knowing when to say no and knowing when to say yes, that there is no price like the price of leaving part of myself behind is not negotiable now. That's become a reason. And that's a real shift inside of me. That is, it's changing me. And I would also say that I've. [00:28:17] I feel like I have cut I've come into contact with the intelligence of love and not just the love between people, but the intelligence of love. And I really feel like for me, that's. [00:28:36] It's not only the gift, it's like I'm waking up to something that I've always known. Mm hmm. So what Cobbett, what the pandemic and what all of this has done for me in getting more in touch with myself is it's actually more of a remembering than a learning something new. Right. It's detaching from all the distractions that kept me, you know, spending more time on the level of persona than the level of soul. Yeah, totally. [00:29:05] How about you? [00:29:09] I think this time has really awakened me to embodying. [00:29:16] Myself and has confronted my own spiritual bypass, my desire to spiritual bypass or do emotional bypass and really land more in my body land and become more human. [00:29:35] I feel like like containment is my medicine because I've been able to express myself throughout my life despite saying I lost part of my voice. [00:29:48] That's true. And I've still been able to express more than contain. So everything is about simplicity, structure. And that's to me, the sacred masculine I'm bringing in to the relationship with the divine feminine. I'm feel. [00:30:07] Much more whole from coming through this year. [00:30:10] And and great fall like for the expiated lessons of this year, because I know we have to learn now as a species, not individually only, but as a species in quantum time, because there is no time with everything that's happening in the big cosmic narratives. And my hope going forward is, you know, one of the things I've been saying to my clients is how are we going to write news stories of the culture? [00:30:40] I think it's now about getting smaller, not bigger. And why smaller? I mean, more intimate. [00:30:48] I do, too. Hundred percent sharing our deepest, most intimate stories and making the unspeakable, unspeakable. And moving past shame. Right. That's how we're going to. Those are the news stories said the old stories. They're also the news stories going deeper in that connection. [00:31:09] Sounds like we're moving, huh? Things are moving and shifting and. As always, it's a privilege to be here. I feel. [00:31:20] Yeah, this one feels important. That's all I'll say. Mm hmm. [00:31:24] Thanks, everybody, for listening. Yeah.
