Shirani M. Pathak teaches you how to have amazing relationships by doing one simple thing: dismantling supremacy’s internalized oppression and conditioning. Though it’s simple, it may not be easy. Tune in to learn how perfectionism, imposter syndrome, judgement, criticism, comparison (aka comparisonitis), fear of failure, inadequacy and the “not enoughs” hold you back from the amazing relationships you desire. In this podcast I‘m illuminating how what you‘re feeling is a result of what we’ve been programmed to believe living under supremacy culture’s systems of oppression, and offer solutions to help you heal from supremacy‘s sneaky conditioning. I cover topics of racism, relationships, emotional intelligence, relational intelligence, neuroscience, the nervous system, intergenerational trauma, epigenetics, spirituality, authentic leadership, alcoholism, addiction, abuse, violence and so much more.

Quotes
[00:07:54] The patterns of racism are the same as the patterns of any other -ism: alcoholism, sexism, classism, perfectionism. It's all the same pattern.
[00:16:25] So, when we say that all this started 7000 years ago, and because of the fact that it was never addressed, is why we see it worse and worse and worse. We've only been looking at symptoms, we haven't been looking at the cause.
[00:18:40] They were property. People that were not European and Christian were not considered human, and that's where white body supremacy started.

S3E1: Healing Racism with guest Milagros Phillips
Thursday Sep 16, 2021
Thursday Sep 16, 2021
Welcome back to a brand new season of The Fierce Authenticity Podcast! We begin this new season with a bang.
In today’s episode, Shirani is joined by Milagros Phillips. Milagros is delivering transformative programs and creating space to engage in difficult conversations. From corporate leaders to members of Congress, Milagros designs strategic learning programs for clients seeking to enhance equity and inclusion by adding race literacy to their EI initiatives.
Today, Shirani and Milagros dive deep into the topic of healing racism and Milagros generously shares her story, parts of herself and her process, her journey as well as what makes healing racism so important in our world.
In today’s episode, we cover:
● Healing racism is a personal journey
● Racism is a problem for people of color, it is not the problem of people of color
● We are enough to transform a dysfunctional system
● The work of healing racism is the work of relationships
● We're supposed to be learning from one another, everyone has gifts to offer
Quotes
[00:12:10] It always ultimately comes down to our relationships: with ourselves, with Source and with others and how everything that we have experienced impacts us on a personal and interpersonal level.
[00:18:15] I look at racism from the perspective of the family model, the dysfunctional family model, because we're one human family, right? And you may not like the cousins, but they’re still your cousins. It is what it is.
[00:18:51] Racism is a white problem. Racism is a problem for people of color, it is not the problem of people of color. So, whites have to solve the racism piece.
[00:31:10] And that also goes for white people, because they think that only people of color have been victimized by racism, they don't realize that they're oppressed too, it’s just that their oppression is hidden behind privilege so they don't even see it. And neither does anybody else.
[00:43:41] The work of racism is the work of relationships.
[00:51:12] Do the work, you're worthy. You're more than worthy of clearing this stuff, so that you can find that essence of love of all humanity that lives inside of you

Pre-Season Review: Intergenerational Trauma with Dr. B. Nilaja Green
Thursday Sep 02, 2021
Thursday Sep 02, 2021
Our pre-publication supporters campaign for Fierce Authenticity 2.0: Supremacy's Impact on Our Relationships is well underway and our first contributors have joined the movement!
Learn more and sign up to join us at: www.shiranimpathak.com/fierceauthenticity
In today's episode we're revisiting the conversation between Shirani and Dr. B. Nilaja Green on racism, supremacy, and intergenerational trauma. A big part of where we're headed with Fierce Authenticity 2.0 has to do with the fact that much of the trauma we're currently experiencing and the ways we've adapted to that trauma, has to do with what our ancestors felt and experienced, and that includes the effects of racism, which has its roots in supremacy culture.
We talked about this briefly in last week's nervous system episode, and in this rich conversation, we're taking it even further, including conversations around the enslavement of Black bodied people, Juneteenth, and the continued violence against Black bodies in America.
Tune in and let us know what you think!

Pre-Season Review: Collective Trauma and You
Thursday Aug 19, 2021
Thursday Aug 19, 2021
Before we dive into today's episode I have some very exiting news:
I am cordially inviting you to join me in community to support and uplift the message of Fierce Authenticity by becoming an early supporter of the publication of my new book, Fierce Authenticity 2.0: Supremacy's Impact on Our Relationships!!!
Imagine a world that's free from the detrimental effects of believing that there are some who are superior and others who are inferior. Imagine a world that's free from the ways we get ourselves into patterns of "better than/ less than" that usurp our personal power and keep us oppressed. Imagine a world that's free from the "right-wrong" polarization we see in society.
Fierce Authenticity 2.0 will open your eyes to the science behind why we do what we do, how we keep ourselves in oppressive patterns, the behaviors you participate in that are detrimental to your relationships and well-being, as well as equip you with powerful tools that support you in undoing supremacy's harmful conditioning on you and your relationships.
As an early supporter of the publication of the forthcoming book, you're saying "YES" to joining a movement to deeply understand and eradicate the effects of supremacy culture's conditioning on us and our relationships. Effects which include: racism, sexism, perfectionism, comparisonitis, the "not enoughs", the hustle to achieve and so much more.
When you understand where these patterns came from, how it's been encoded into your nervous system and your DNA, how it shows up on the day to day in your relationships, you get to awaken to and rise above supremacy's inherited systemic invasion rooted in fear and lack so that you can refocus your energy towards reclaiming a fiercely authentic personal relationship that's grounded in an abundance and love that is so radiant all your other relationships are elevated with you.
Visit www.shiranimpathak.com/fierceauthenticity to join me on this movement!
-----
Now, today we're doing our second pre-season review to help you in understanding collective trauma: what it is and how it impacts your DNA.
Do not skip this review! It sets some of the groundwork for where we're headed.

Pre-Season Review: Relational F*ckery with James-Olivia Chu Hillman
Thursday Aug 12, 2021
Thursday Aug 12, 2021
We're back and we're starting Season 3 of the Fierce Authenticity podcast with a pre-season review to get you ready for what's next.
Over the next several weeks, we'll be releasing some of our most popular podcasts of our first year. School's been out for the summer, so these review episodes are going to help bring you back up to speed on what it is we're doing here and where we're headed.
Today we begin with the conversation I had with James-Olivia Chu Hillman last year on Relational F*ckery and the havoc we cause in our relationships as part of supremacy culture's conditioning. This is by far our most popular episode and I think it's because we're talking about the real real when it comes to our relationships.
We talk about supremacy, patriarchy, grandiosity, contempt, and also right relationship and belonging.
Do not skip out on this review!
For a summary of the episode you can visit www.shiranimpathak.com/blog or read the transcript. 😊
So glad to be back with you all!

Quotes:
[00:04:55] I just knew that my heart needed to share these messages. So, I hit record, then I uploaded and I hit submit and no joke- it took less than 48 hours for me to receive the email from Apple Podcasts that said: Congratulations! Your podcast is approved and it’s LIVE!
[00:05:48] I have right here a board and at 11:44 AM on June 5th of 2020, I wrote down: There is nothing more powerful than a woman in God’s will for her. And that meant so much to me, because I literally felt it in my body. When you are in alignment with what the divine is asking of you, things happen so effortlessly and so miraculously.
