Podcast Overview

We're the Co-Hosts, Felicia Baucom and Nadjejda Chapoteau. We are two misfits who are exploring the intersection of social/political issues, current events, and the Personal Development Industrial Complex. Join us as we talk about capitalism, racism, work, inequality, technology, self-care, and more. Because we are misfits, we will bring a systemic analysis as well as our own to challenge the narratives that are pervasive among political leaders, self-help "gurus", and the media. This podcast is for anyone who is searching for an alternative point of view, whether or not they are misfits.

Ep. 15: It's Okay To Be Lazy

<p>"Lazy" is a term that is frequently used to describe oneself, and others, who are not as productive as they think they should be. In our culture of overwork, people are expected to hustle and grind and keep up with all of the demands of life during every waking hour. In this conversation, we talk about the various ways that "laziness" has been weaponized and how we can use other words to take our time and our lives back. We also reveal how we're not morning people. This episode was originally recorded in 2020 and the topic was inspired by this Current Affairs piece: <a href="https://www.currentaffairs.org/2020/06/in-defense-of-laziness">https://www.currentaffairs.org/2020/06/in-defense-of-laziness</a></p>

Ep. 14: The Pitfalls of “Being the Best"

<p>In our latest episode we discuss&nbsp;the whole idea of society calling on us to be “The Best”. We experience this especially in schools, businesses, our careers, and other areas in our lives where we are constantly being told how we must be the best, we must strive to be “The Best” or we must have “The Largest...fill in the blank”.</p> <p>We share the pitfalls of this, for example how it creates competition which then creates other issues for us like lack of connection between us and how this is a systemic issue.</p> <p>We hope you’ll find value in what we shared, you’ll resonate with some of it, and it will inspire you to reflect on where in your own life this notion of being the best is present and you’ll begin to have conversations on this topic with people in your life. This episode was originally recorded in 2020.. Enjoy and be well!</p>

Ep. 13: Weaponized Gratitude

<p><strong>We’re back with a brand new episode after our break. Do you know what weaponized gratitude is? Have you experienced it? In our latest episode we shared and discussed weaponized gratitude which is a major issue in the personal development industrial complex. It is a topic we are both passionate about and you’ll notice when you listen to the episode. We could have gone on and on, a lot of topics came up while recording and we’ll be discussing them in the future.</strong></p> <p><strong>We hope you’ll enjoy this episode, find it valuable and you’ll be inspired to take action in your life and have meaningful conversations on weaponized gratitude with family and friends. We believe that the more people become aware of this and share about it with others, there will be more awareness of the harm caused by weaponized gratitude and other types of spiritual bypassing. Enjoy and be well!</strong></p>
