About this listen

In this episode we do a quick intro to Buddhism, Joelle shares about their experience with studying and practicing Buddhist ideas, and we talk about a quote from the Buddha about not believing in spiritual ideas just because somebody told you, or because it's the tradition, or even because it's a thought that pops up in your mind! We talk about testing things out for yourself and deciding what's right based on your judgement of what's going to avoid causing harm (including to yourself). Joelle also relates these ideas to gender, because of course they had to do that.
