Today’s episode is focused on the cultural principles of influence, and is a reading from an essay I originally wrote for The New Quo Learning Community where I curate overlooked ethical and cultural wisdom straight to the inboxes of members who are passionate about finding new insight and inspiration to practice their social justice values. 

This essay is titled ‘chosen family and the fallacy of nuclear love', and is poetic look into the history of the nuclear family and the ways people have built community and deep love outside of these norms, especially in the LGBTQIA community. It also ends with some prose with a family story of my own. Listen above or wherever you stream your podcasts.
