Show Notes
This episode explores how we are quick to blame/judge & condemn each other, which is very different to taking ownership/responsibility & being accountable. In fact the blame game is how we avoid genuine self reflection & willingness to look at ourselves. This all plays out with in the ugly backdrop of a toxic culture of blame & victimhood. Trumpism, maga mentality has saturated our consciousness & sullied our world view with its cynicism, cruelty & unkindness. Do not despair! There is a powerful counter movement which is striving to reconnect with & reclaim good faith accountability, responsibility, honesty, love & compassion..fuck that blame bollox!!!
