Ericka Jones: A Social Reckoning & The Solve for Moral Constipation

As a Global Diversity and Inclusion Leader at Cargill — a global food corporation and the largest privately held corporation in the US; a modern day change leader and healer with more than 12 years of experience specific to diversity, equity and inclusion; and the Founder of the Yoga Coalition, Ericka Jones' life mission is to be the vessel for deep human connection and the validation of everyone’s human experience.  

In this episode, Allie and Ericka explore: 

• The social reckoning we’re all experiencing right now that’s been 100+ years in the making
• How tenderness is the missing ingredient in our current attempt at societal progress — aka cancel culture, callout culture, woke culture
• Why racism is like gravity and how there has only been a handful of people who’ve really understood it properly
• Intergenerational wisdom and what there’s to learn from Generation Z and our elders about racism and social injustice
• “The Amazon Effect” and how our desire for instant and rapid change isn’t actually changing anything at all
• How we as a collective can break the cycle of the world’s belief system being based in fear
