Episode Description:
What if a workout class was more than just exercise? What if it was a mirror for how we connect, support, and shape each other—not just physically, but emotionally and politically?
In this episode, I explore the unexpected philosophy hidden in movement, weaving together insights from Matrixial Theory, Ubuntu, and collective energy. From the subtle power of suggestion in a fitness class to the deeper ways we are shaped by the people around us, this conversation asks:
🔥 Are we truly independent, or are we formed through connection?
🔥 How do our smallest interactions ripple into something bigger—both in our personal lives and in the world?
🔥 Can embracing interdependence be a radical act in today’s hyper-individualistic culture?
With humor, personal reflection, and a touch of feminist psychoanalysis, this episode is about more than just fitness—it’s about the invisible threads that connect us all.
