In this heart-opening conversation, we sit down with Shahem - Black queer therapist, content creator, and community organizer whose work bridges grief, joy, and resistance.

Together we explore how to grieve in a culture that doesn’t make space for loss, how joy can be a radical practice of survival, and how resistance can look like choosing authenticity when the world wants you numb. This episode is a reminder that balance is about staying connected to ourselves and each other through it all.

In this episode we explore:
✨ Grief as more than death—why losing a job, identity, or sense of autonomy deserves to be honored as loss
🌀 The three pillars of balance: grief, joy, and resistance—and how each keeps the others alive
❤️ How to actually grieve
💬 Men and emotional disconnection—what patriarchy steals from everyone, and why reclaiming tenderness is liberation
🔥 Resistance as the everyday practice of showing up authentically”
🌈 Community as the antidote to despair—why healing, grieving, and joy all require other people
💡 “Not enoughness” as a tool of oppression—and how reclaiming your own enoughness becomes an act of defiance
🌻 Finding your role in the revolution—why balance means giving what you can, in the ways that are true to you

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, cynical, or unsure how to stay tender in the face of so much collective pain, let this conversation be a place to land.
