Safeguarding in the Age of Gender Disinformation, Dissociation, & External Validation Seeking
Recover Your Instincts & Cultivate Resilience with Amy Sousa, MA Depth Psychology
Get instant access →Perhaps you're aware of the harms the gender identity industry is causing women and girls, and the predatory strategies at play.
The disembodiment crisis has gone beyond common issues women and girls have faced in decades past; anorexia, cutting, illegal drugs and alcohol.
We're now confronted with institutionally sanctioned self-hate and the denial of biological reality.
In addition, women and girls are being programmed to regard their instinctual disgust towards men who masquerade as women, as paranoia and bigotry.
While awareness is slowly being raised, many are still embedded in the medical industrial complex, DSM diagnoses, prescription medications and outdated therapeutic models.
Culturally, we're beginning to see the consequences of what isn't working, so, where do we go from here?
What can we do to fortify ourselves and our daughters in a socio-political climate that enforces the ludicrous idea that sex is spectrum and our bodies are simply Mr./Ms. Potato Head parts that can be mixed, matched, and discarded?!
How do we teach our girls to occupy their bodies instead of abandoning them?
What are the practical, actionable things we can do in our day-to-day lives?
With her robust background in depth psychology, and nearly a decade of activism advocating for the safety and wellbeing of women and girls, in this class, Amy Sousa provides the foundation to recover your instincts and build resilience in the age of gender disinformation and disembodiment.
Who is this class for?
✓ Embodied mothers and their daughters 12 years+
✓ Women looking for an in-depth understanding of exactly how our instincts are being exploited in the age of gender identity disinformation and what we can do about it!
✓ Those curious about embodiment tools and building a strong internal authority system.
✓ Women's healthcare providers looking to hone their understanding of how gender identity ideology is the ultimate disembodiment and disempowerment.
