Title: “Embodying Discomfort” with Kim Brassor

Embodying Discomfort Podcast

Resilience has long been defined by how quickly we can bounce back. But what if we stop bouncing — and start breathing?

Season 3 of One Voice Evolving is live.

And this time, we’re calling it: Resilience Reimagined.

We’re not here for polished soundbites or shallow takeaways.

This season is about the moments we stay when it’s hard.

The ways we fall apart and begin again — with more integrity, less armor.

Beyond raw, real and relatable, our guests this season are wise, and wildly human.

They’re modeling tools for women over 40 who are learning to use their voices in liberating ways — even when it’s uncomfortable, even when it costs them.

If you’re in a season of unlearning, truth-telling, or beginning again — this one’s for you.


Let’s reimagine resilience together.

Let’s reimagine resilience together.

In a world where tyranny doesn’t knock — it kicks down the door — calm can feel like a betrayal. But it’s not. It’s strategy.

We’re living under systems that profit from our panic and the constant churn of crisis. They want our nervous systems fried — because burnt-out people don’t organize, don’t dream, don’t resist.

But here’s the truth: calm is not surrender. It’s preparation.

When we ground ourselves, we remember who we are. We can tell truth from propaganda. We can choose response over reaction. We can breathe before we burn.

So here’s the case for calm — not as escape, but as embodied resistance:

• Calm lets us think clearly in chaos.

• Calm reconnects us to the land, the ancestors, and each other.

• Calm restores what oppression tries to steal: our agency.

• Calm isn’t quiet. It’s rooted.

This isn’t about bypassing pain. It’s about creating space to hold it — and move through it together.

Because staying calm in a burning world isn’t privilege. It’s power.

— One Voice Evolving

Calm is how we carry the fire.
