The root of personal innovation, the creation of new habits, processes and practices that help us along in our healing journey, often comes from witnessing the road that others have created to forge their paths. In this episode, Dr. Jenn welcomes Foluke Taylor, a psychotherapist and writer, to discuss themes of sisterhood, identity, and the significance of Black feminism. The conversation explores personal histories, the importance of community, and the journey of self-authorization in sharing one's voice.
Foluke Taylor is a psychotherapist and a writer interested in therapeutic practices that hold open space for thinking from and into the position of blackness. She works with Black feminist modes that create and hold open spaces for the emergence of the yet to be and for the therapeutics that call this into being. Taylor is the author of UNRULY THERAPEUTIC: BLACK FEMINIST WRITINGS & PRACTICES IN LIVING ROOM - Part thesis, part memoir, and part poetry, Foluke Taylor explores how the centering of black women’s experiences in therapeutic scholarship allows for greater space—space for wandering, for wondering, and for deepening narratives—in every therapeutic relationship.
