059 Identity and Gender

This month, we are exploring identity - specifically gender identity and its implications on society and on our understanding of the truth of what we are. Identity, or the vision of ourselves that is held psychologically, is the product of an enormous belief system. There is currently a societal wave that has made it very difficult to ask big questions about gender identity, and in some cases, challenging the beliefs about one’s identity is criminalised. So in this episode, we are going to explore the psychological construct of identity, what happens when psychological identity overrides biological reality, why organising society around identity constructs is dangerous, and how to seek truth and truthfulness in the conversations around gender identity. What is Covered: -What is identity and how it’s created -Why questioning one’s identity is not a threat but an invitation -The dangers of organising a society around identity constructs -The implications of gender identity of institutions, laws and society -Two ways in which gender identity trumps biological reality -How the entire mental health industry relies on securing one’s identity -Why it’s crucial for parents and educators to understand identity -Seeking honesty and considering the reality of existence in the conversations around identity Resources: -Learn more about me and my work at -Find me on Facebook -Let’s connect on LinkedIn -Follow me on Instagram
