About this listen
In this episode of “The Fast,” host Patrick Huey and Cyndie Spiegel discuss Cindy's book "Micro Joys: Finding Hope (Especially) When Life Is Not Okay” which is about changing the paradigm around grief and her TEDx talk, “The Necessary Paradigm Shift For Women To Collectively Thrive,” which challenges the narrative around feminism and women's empowerment. Patrick and Cyndie delve into the concept of accepting contradictions and the importance of not attaching value judgments to situations. In “MicroJoys”, Cyndie talks about accepting multiple, sometimes opposite truths. They explore the idea of embracing nuance as there is no good or bad when viewing the world, and how that allows for a state of acceptance. Cyndie shares her personal experience of finding moments of joy amidst the sadness of losing her nephew. She also opens up about her background as a biracial individual, shedding light on the complexities of identity.
They emphasize the need to hold space for different truths and the responsibility to create joy in one's own unique ways.
