Hello fellow foreigners. Welcome home.
Today we are talking about this earthy fleshy home we live in: our bodies. The conversation is in German, English, and Finnish.
*trigger warning! This episode talks about miscarriage, abortion, dieting, body dysmorphia, suicide. This conversation is heteronormative and my fellow lgbtqia+ foreigners are welcome to provide feedback and/or criticism.
Complete show notes here.
In the US, there have been a beautiful honest conversation at this level of vulnerability for the last 7 years and it has become normal to share these kind of intimacies publicly. Not in Germany. So let's get uncomfortable together, Friends! Integrate those foreign feelings you are having as we bravely open our mouths to talk about feeling uncomfortable in our physical bodies.
Music improvised and sung by Ellen Atwood Music
This episode mentions conversations I've had with Jamie Lee Finch
