S5E07 - Countercultural Leadership: Capitalism, Race & What It Means In Business with Toi Smith

In a system that shapes our bodies as a means for production
(that is, taxi for our brains & a machine to put to work to
get things done) it’s a countercultural act to center the fullest
expression of who you are as a human being in the way you live
& work. That’s exactly what Toi takes a stand for & in
this conversation we explore current cultures including
capitalism, race & what it means for women, white women and
business.


 


In this discussion with Jenna & Toi we explore:


3 common capitalist practices many entrepreneurs employ

How Toi’s experience of embodiment lead her to do
anti-capitalism inquiry & work

A brief history of capitalism & race in the US

The practices Toi uses to create pleasure & stamina in
how she works

What do white women who (truly) want to be allies need to be
doing

Toi's work centers on doing life differently, doing business
differently, and doing motherhood differently. She works with
people whose work is countercultural, liberatory, and
revolutionary in nature...or people who desire and are committed
to moving their work or lives in that direction.
