And being actively engaged in this process of figuring out how to be kinder to yourself so that accountability isn't carceral is called parenting.

Yeah.

It's parenting.

That's going to be more useful to whatever little human is growing inside of you than being perfect.

We all need support and guidance in as many forms as we can find it.

North Atlantic Books offers a book that provides just that, outgrowing modernity, navigating complexity, complicity, and collapse with accountability and compassion by Vanessa Machado de Oliveira.

It's a powerful follow-up to her previous book, Hospicing Modernity, as it helps us make sense of where we're going in time of endings and investigates the impact of colonialism on our thinking, acting, and ability to adapt.

Outgrowing Modernity

is a much-needed guide that shows readers how to activate responsibility, nurture care, and grow up in the face of collapse.

It invites us to recognize what no longer serves us and to reinvent in nurturing structures and life ways with reflections, exercises, and prompts.
