The words "I Am" are powerful words, offering the opportunity for positive affirmations of healing, self-love, purpose, and abundance. Adding the word "Love" offers the belief that everyone is worthy of love, should be loved, and feel love regardless of their age, colour, or gender. And adding the word "Project", offer the potential for limitless possible actions. These words are part of what the I AM PROJECT is all about.In episode 50, Genny spoke with Amy Tung, an entrepreneur and community advocate who created the I AM LOVE PROJECT, a socially conscious enterprise, in 2018 out of a desire to help and give back, to "spread the love" to the community, be a catalyst for change, support those who need it the most and open a door of opportunities for others.Drawing on her own journey of persevering through her challenges, Amy wanted to provide women an avenue to restart their lives and build something better. The I AM LOVE PROJECT supports women through training and community support and provides opportunities for employment and extra financial assistance when they need to find community, purpose, and hope.They began making bracelets using different crystals that were then sold to raise funds for local charities, schools, non-profits, and other organizations. They now make earrings and necklaces in addition to the bracelets, and 60% of their jewelry is handmade by women in Manitoba facing employment barriers, and 40% are imported for assembly.Amy's mission is to continuously encourage self-love, a mindset that is cultivated through the support of the community and backed up with heart and hard work.Website: https://www.iamloveproject.ca/@iam_love_projectFollow Coffee with Genny B on Instagram at @coffeewithgennybIf you would like to buy Genny a coffee, please visit ko-fi.com/coffeewithgennybSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In the last episode of Undiscussable, we looked at male victims of domestic abuse, with, the perpetrator being a woman. This week we’re going to look the experience in a same-sex relationship and the LGBT+ community. Just a note that I’m using the term LGBT+ but it’s also important to keep in mind this isn’t a generalisation and the identities and needs of people are unique. Domestic abuse being thought of as gendered by nature dominates the conversation and often is framed in a heterosexual relationship, and that victims are all straight women.Something we’ve been addressing through this series but I would like to highlight is that partner abuse is a systematic pattern of behaviours where one person attempts to exert power and control over the thoughts, beliefs, and/or actions of their partner, someone they are dating or have/had an intimate relationship with.LGBT+ victims of domestic abuse are twice as likely to have experienced abuse by a family member in childhood.This is what happened to Gavin, who we hear from in this episode. He had a childhood of abuse and neglect, and then as a young man was sexually exploited multiple times.Domestic abuse also happens in lesbian relationships. Jessica has bravely shared her story with us, she is no longer with her abusive partner but still fears her and had to move to a completely new area to escape her.GuestsDuncan Craig OBE and CEO of Survivors ManchesterAmy manager of the National LGBT+ Domestic Abuse HelplineThank you to Gavin and Jessica. And Duncan and Amy.If there’s anything you can relate to please contact Galop, they welcome anyone from the LGBT+ community and the national LGBT domestic abuse helpline is 0800 999 5428 and email: help@galop.org.uk And the national domestic abuse helpline ran by Refuge is 08082000247 and please contact mankind.org.uk for male victims.

On this episode: Curtis shares how he thinks the culturally acceptable male perspective can lead to domestic violence. Hear about the progressive steps of abuse. Curtis explains the three reasons men abuse women: It actually works. Violence is a form of control. Men are taught to. They can get away with it. Understand that controlling and abusive behaviors ultimately lead to violence because any tactic has a shelf life. Tweetable Quotes: “Men abusing women is not a woman problem, it’s a men problem.” "It’s not women’s job to create a space for men to work through their emotional shit."

We talk about how we can expand our emotional and psychological capacity to process life's difficulties by recognizing that we are part of a collective. And we go deep into the understanding that we are all part of one great evolutionary process.
