A trauma-informed doctor, EMDR specialist, and coach watched the Barbie movie and sat down to discuss what came up.
SPOILER - if you have not seen Barbie and don't want to hear about the movie, wait to listen to this until after you've watched the move!
Michele Figuero is an EMDR therapist, with an extensive range of clinical experience providing mental health services for depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma, and the LGBTQ population as well as other minority populations. Michele can be found on Instagram @Mind.Renewal.Trauma.Recovery
Here is what you can expect in this episode:
the juxtaposition of two worlds: one where men rule, and the other where women rule
Definitions of trauma - and trauma plays out in the barbie movie and real life
the dynamics of power, control, and trauma - how trauma changes your view of self, others, and the world, and the impact of a culture and society founded on patriarchy in both men and women.
A woman's nervous system response to society
Why are we incorporating trauma into this conversation around barbie
10 signs that you may be fawning in the face of your own trauma, and what to do to heal
The Barbie movie leaves the viewer in a state of tension as it ends with power systems swinging to the opposite side, abandoning patriarchy and embracing matriarchy.
The listener is called to explore the nuance of what a balanced world would look like where neither men or women rule but rather each exists from a place of internal honesty, self-respect, honoring of the other, and balancing the dynamics of control and power.
