Heart of Invictus (2023)
Very deep and raw: Inspiring & educational
The real cost of war: The human beings we send to war! Veterans from all walks and countries represented! From Gabe in the US dealing with chronic pain, Na from South Korea who lost both hands, Darell from Canada dealing with anxiety, Tom in UK to Team Ukraine and Yulia aka Taira.... I have cried and laughed and been left feeling inspired!!! All the visible and invisible injuries are covered.
The images from Ukraine are compelling and powerful as it covers images from before and during the war! Despite all the Ukraine team is funny, foul mouthed (in a funny way) and the resilience and strength shines.
As Prince Harry articulates, it's been 10years and now there's lots of resources for wounded veterans which is a great thing! I am looking forward to the next Invictus game's starting September 9th.
Archetypes (2022)
Breath of Fresh Air
Love love Archetypes! First of all can I say that Meghan has such a good voice for podcasts! So soothing.
Second ,the topics covered so far are so relatable for me as a woman. It has also given me pause to think about other women's experiences like Asian women, whose experience I didn't necessarily used to think about. Every Tuesday I have been refreshed and feel more enlightened.
Third, I have been challenged too about the Archetypes and how I also used words like Diva and Crazy in a stereotypical way. Now I have caught myself thinking about the meaning of these words I would loosely throw around. I love the intervention of experts with the historical contexts of the Archetypes.
Last but not least, the production is excellent! The music, the transition, the mixture of interviews and academic explanations, is all seamless!
