I was given some feedback about not being aware of my white privilege in groups...I've never been given that feedback, and I liked the feedback.
Ever wondered how a TV show, a book on race, and the idea of dating yourself can tie together? In this episode of 'MY BLUEPRINT: Struggle Towards Emotional Sobriety', Michael Stoller weaves these seemingly disparate threads into a rich tapestry of personal growth. Starting with the Apple+ series Ted Lasso, Michael dives into why this show is more than just a comedy.
He highlights the deeper lessons embedded in its humor and encourages listeners to watch it with an eye for these nuggets of wisdom. His enthusiasm is contagious, making you want to grab the remote and dive into Ted's world immediately. Next, Michael shifts gears to discuss Ruth King's book 'Mindful of Race: Transforming Racism from the Inside Out'. He shares his own journey of receiving feedback on his white privilege in group settings.
While initially tough to hear, this feedback became a catalyst for his growth. Ruth King's insights helped him understand the complexities of race issues and navigate the dominant and subordinate cultures we all live in. The episode takes another turn as Michael delves into the concept of 'dating oneself'. He shares his personal experiences with self-love and self-discovery, even hiring a relationship coach to get clear on what he wants in a partner.
Michael makes a compelling case for why working on oneself is crucial before entering into any relationship. By 'dating yourself', you learn what you truly need and want in a partner, setting the stage for healthier, more fulfilling relationships. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of self-improvement, awareness, and love. Michael's candid reflections and engaging storytelling make it a must-listen for anyone on their own journey towards emotional sobriety.
