Empowering Play with Jessica Cauthorne
In this episode of A Hero's Welcome Podcast, Maria Laquerre-Diego and Liliana Baylon explore feminist theory and play therapy with Jessica Cauthorne, LCSW, RPT, to empower individuals and challenge societal norms. Our hosts and guests discuss nonbinary identities, equality, and overcoming personal and systemic challenges. Using Disney movies, we examine how these stories reinforce and challenge gender norms, highlighting privileges and oppressions from a multicultural perspective. We also tackle the impact of negative beliefs and how play therapy can help heal and embrace inclusive identities. Join us for insights and stories that foster equality and understanding in today's complex world.
