Welcome to Untethered Advice, a new format for the Untethered pod! In today’s episode, a listener asks if monogamy is responsible in part for men’s violence against women, because of its emphasis on ownership.

I answer this the best way I know how - by looking at the broader picture of where the SYSTEM of male violence learns its tactics from. And yes, I talk about Palestine and imperial violence.

This is a challenge to western feminists who want to focus solely on domestic homicide in Australia while ignoring the genocide in Palestine. These two thinks are interconnected, and we cannot fix domestic violence without understanding and dismantling our complicity in imperial violence.

Speaking with conviction has always been my approach, especially when discussing topics that many shy away from. For this episode of Untethered, I'm going solo to talk about the hypocrisy of those suddenly speaking up about men's violence against women while remaining silent on the Israeli genocide of Palestinians.

This dialogue is more than just talk; it's a call to action—a challenge to examine the heavy cost of true change. As we consider the complexities of advocating for justice and liberation, I dissect the interplay of capitalism, white supremacy, and patriarchy and how these systems of oppression often silence the most critical voices. This episode is an invitation to reflect on our collective responsibilities and the sacrifices demanded in the pursuit of a more equitable world. It's time to weigh the importance of our humanity against the comfort of staying silent, and I'm here to guide that introspection. Join me, and let's dare to envision and fight for the change we so desperately need.

Part two of my episode with YUMIKO KADOTA is here! A beautiful reading I designed called THE STAR:

S: The spirit. What light do you shine on the world?
T: Truth. What truth are you here to illuminate?
A: Arising. What's arising in you right now?
R: Retreating. What energy is retreating?

Thanks to Yumiko for being so kind and generous with her time! I know Tarot isn't for everyone, but if you're listening to this then I'm glad it's for you.
