概要
Carolina Allen, founder and director of Big Ocean Women, and Shelli Spotts introduce our new monthly podcast series that applies the group’s tenets to current issues, beginning with “working side by side in the global sisterhood." They also celebrate our Big Ocean Women CSW team’s successful, safe return from sharing our maternal feminist message at the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women. They describe a “maternal economy” that decommodifies relationships and draws on abundance, creativity, and generational impact, contrasting it with hustle culture and profit-driven models. Carolina announces a May 9 summit (with more to follow) where Big Ocean will share lessons from years of attending UN forums and help mothers and families understand complex agendas, language, and how to respond with clarity, education, self-reliance, and safety.
"And one of the things that strikes me about this, about the whole idea of women coming together from all over the world, is that it is truly a decommodification. Of the way we interact with one another. My daughter called it the "I know, a guy" economy. Yes. We call it the maternal economy." Shelli Spotts "I love the structure of the library, right? That you go and there's the wisdom of all of these people there and I think often that this type of thing is like a library of experience. We each bring our skills and our inspiration and our experience and our special interests. We have education in different areas. We know how to do different things and together we are creating this library, this maternal economy where we can metaphorically check out the knowledge that we need from one another. And it's for a purpose. It's for the benefit of communities, and that is very exciting." Shelli Spotts "Every time we've attended, it's been a transformative experience for women because we get to see, it's like scales fall from your eyes and you're like, wow, this stuff is real. These agendas are real, and they're very calculated. These people are talking about my children." Carolina Allen "You have to rise up in power and not in fear, not in reaction, like you talked about, just in a very centered, grounded way that is generationally impactful." Shelli Spotts "And what we found though is that we're pulling farther and farther away from this human-centered familial roots of our humanity. We're just moving towards a technologically driven, isolated, and like an AI governance system that's really encroaching over the whole world that's transhumanist, that's very anti-human." Carolina Allen "Being a mom today poses a lot of challenges and Big Ocean Women—we're here to help mothers not feel alone. So we are a community that you can belong to and we're not just like a feel good, you know, sunshine and roses community. We're gonna help educate you so you know exactly what's happening out there and how to process it. And when you know how to process it, you stand in your power."
