02. Healing in Community
This episode features a special interview with four of Michelle’s close comrades and colleagues. Michelle brought the team of Healing in Community facilitators together to hear about how they are tending their hearts at this time—Katie Veleta, Johnette Walser, Amy Burtaine, and Stephanie Ghoston Paul co-led an online retreat with Michelle this past summer, and are reuniting for a special offering this fall: an online series exploring topics such as Collective Grief and Liberation, Embodying Grief, How to be a Living Ancestor, Decolonizing Our Relationship with the Land, and more. In this conversation, Katie, Johnette, Amy, and Stephanie share about the ways in which they are continuing to heal in community and how they are finding and creating refuge at this time.
