I'm calling out my age group, I'm challenging them, I'm calling them out to get their act together and start becoming elders that young people can look up to.
Ever felt like the world is changing too fast to keep up? In this episode of 361 Recovery, Alice Smith and Jess Hawkes dive into the generational divide and its impact on mental health and politics. They start by tackling the societal pressures that come with traditional gender roles. Alice shares her own story of feeling pushed to marry, buy a house, and fit into a mold that didn’t quite suit her.
Her candid reflections offer a window into the often-unspoken struggles many face in conforming to societal expectations. The conversation then shifts to the concept of 'elderhood', a term popularized by Stephen Jenkinson. What does it mean to be an elder in today's world, and why are younger generations desperately seeking role models? Jess and Alice explore these questions, shedding light on the importance of wisdom and guidance in turbulent times. But that's not all.
The episode also delves into the contentious topics of sex work and trafficking, examining how views differ across generations. Jess highlights the critical need for women's safety and the importance of self-exploration. It's a raw and engaging discussion that challenges listeners to think about their own beliefs and how they can become better role models for the younger generation.
Whether you're navigating your own mental health journey or trying to understand the complex dynamics between different age groups, this episode offers valuable insights and plenty of food for thought. Tune in to hear Alice and Jess's heartfelt conversation and discover ways to bridge the generational gap.
