We talk about: Why \"should I even bring it up?\" is itself a form of privilege Ally vs. accomplice — and sitting IN the discomfort, not on the sidelines Perfectionism as a form of white supremacy (yeah...we went there) Adultification — why kids of color have these talks so much earlier Starting with history (going back 300 years, not today's headlines) And where to start today If you take one thing from this episode, let it be Josie's reminder: you can't take your kids somewhere you haven't gone yourself. You can connect with Josie and her Denver practice, Ampaw Psychotherapy & Consulting, at https://www.ampawpc.com and on Instagram @diaryofabrokenheartedtherapist.
