This chat about creation takes us all over the world! Join Robert and I as we chat about spirituality (both that which we were born into and that which we choose), queerness, world travel, the use of AI in art, and so many more pertinent topics! And you won't want to miss Robert's unique form of creation. I love this episode and conversation so much. Won't you "Come Over to My House"?

Joining me today is Novva, an Ohio denizen, mother to 3 children, and activist who educates on the dangers and evils of systemic oppression. And what better way to educate than through illustrating with in-real-time, lived experiences.

Join Novva and I in this amazing episode as we chat about topics such as having a child with a physical disability, while struggling to survive in poverty among a capitalistic hellscape, and listen to the healing that Novva aspires to create, should her access to resources not be an issue.

Join us around a Crowded Table. Nurture your mind. Nurture your soul.

"The opposite of war isn't peace; it's creation."

Thanks for joining me for season 2 of my podcast, Come Over to My House! You can find season one on audio streaming platforms everywhere! In the first season of this show, I focused on both the systemic and interpersonal implications of trauma on many levels--psychological, anthropological, sociological, and even spiritual!

But this season, I want to focus on the act of creation, how it combats societal rot and destruction through healing, and how differently creation can look from person to person.

My first guest, Lauryn, is a powerhouse of compassion, knowledge, creativity, talent, and wisdom that she draws from so many different experiences of life. She has come so far in healing and deconstructing from many traumas, including escaping a high control religion/cult, overcoming the many emotional implications of intimate partner abuse, and so much more!

To view Lauryn’s art that we discuss this episode, you can watch the full video on YouTube! Cassandra’s YouTube Channel

A NOTE FROM THE HOST:

As a child human trafficking survivor, I very clearly understand that many “anti-trafficking” organizations are actually used to further the plight of those benefiting from selling children, and I try to elevate and support actual anti-trafficking efforts as I find them in the world.

The Baby WhispHerer Movement is a boots-on-the-ground organization that does the work of going in and removing kids from trafficking situations. But the work doesn’t stop there. This organization also provides resources of after care for the children and for the families.

This holiday season, the organization is trying to raise money to provide a feast (that happens to fall on Thanksgiving) to several families who have been affected by these atrocious crimes this year. But they rely on donations to make these things happen. I’ll link the movement’s information below. Please consider donating and sharing, if you’re able.

–Sincerely, a fellow trafficking survivor who understands how valuable these resources are.

It astounds me when I think about how many human beings who authentically value the beauty in the world and in life who have one obstacle in gaining stability and living a full life--money. This episode is a ramble about how we've been conditioned to believe that joy is an illusive thing, when it's actually so attainable. And listen up for some exciting announcements! As always, thanks for your support!!!

Need I say more?

I mentioned someone I know who works in actual anti-trafficking efforts, and I want to include the link to her website that contains resources, among many other things. If you're able to support her in any way, please do so! That includes helping to push her content on social media!

Hope is quite literally the only thing keeping many people afloat in a society built upon the idea that people have the right to own others and to own the resources of the earth. But hope is fleeting right now, and I can feel it across the country.

Emily Dickinson said, "Hope is the Thing with feathers," but today that feathered creature feels more like a vulture and less like a song bird. Let's dive into the darkness for this episode. Let's bring our light; I hope you know it's reach.

To check out the book I'm writing about my personal, true-crime type life and journey that got me here, follow my Patreon (link in LinkTree)! Chapter one will be available in its entirety by the end of day on 8/21/24!

Here I connect the experiences I've had in the Mormon-influenced homeless shelter to consumerism and intentional perpetuation of complex trauma using spirituality. I also discuss the power of spirituality and in finding the sense of self.
