“I tend to get spicy when I’m very passionate about something. I think often, particularly as women, we are often told that we are too emotional or the emotional aspect of us makes it uncomfortable for other people and so they want us to tone it down and put it away. I think our society in is general is really awful at dealing with the big emotions like anger, frustration, grief, sadness, all of those sorts of things I feel like our North American society is really terrible at processing … the reason it’s important to give ourselves space to process all of that and to express through it, is that eventually when that all lands – if we can get curious about where it’s pointing us – generally speaking, there is going to be some sort of nugget of awareness that comes out of it.”

“When you’re feeling so overwhelmed with all the change that you think needs to happen in the world, start in your own backyard. That’s where you start. Focus there. Because that can oftentimes create some of the biggest and most legacy-producing ripples in the world versus donating to whatever, or moving across the world to fight this – it’s like, those are all valuable things, but so is paying attention to your kid in the backyard when they’re playing.“

“When I teach movement, I am also the first person to tell you that I am not the expert of this. I do not own this. My way is NOT the highway. It is A way. And I want to share that in the same regard for this podcast. I am simply sharing my own personal experience. Yes, I have some training and I have some background that can lend some structure to what it is that I’m saying. But at the end of the day, this is a conversation. This is just a conversation. And it is not one-sided.”

TODAY ON THE GODDESS MOVEMENT:

• How sharing personal stories on this podcast has brought forward many lessons for Aryn to process since launching
• The dynamics of putting yourself out there and the vulnerability required to be perceived by close friends and the public alike
• Not being an expert and still having the right to express ourselves and lead others with our unique gifts
• When people try to tell us what to do, and how to say “f*ck off” with conviction
• Why Aryn tells stories the way she does – ethics, morals and integrity in podcasting
• Being aware of how we guard ourselves, and when to take the armour off
• The beauty and risk in sharing the vulnerable parts of us, and accepting the potential for being misunderstood
• How bringing “spice” can be generative rather than destructive
