I also recommend you research online and find videos, live streams, and podcasts that are reliable, supported by proper research, and that come from the heart, not solely from the mind and science. Old and dated belief systems centered on patriarchal and religious mindsets oppressing children, silencing women, and desecrating natural resources (plants, animals, ecosystems, etc.) is part of the decolonization process and journey. I recommend you do proper research and ensure it is done from love, not fear or hate.
