Last month, Deven shared some critical reflections on how he uses his own social capital in this work. We capped off our March reflective practice by chatting amongst ourselves in our podcast about our social capital in this space (Rad-space 😊) and what it means to be inclusive. A note: We could do better. WhatContinue reading “To DO the work…”

Using Our Social Capital
This month, I want to build upon a question Maddy Frey (last month’s RAD guest) was reflecting on, which was (1) recognizing the power held and (2) wrestling with whether or not we should be giving up that power (knowing it’s at least in part a derivative of privilege and social capital). I’m particularly drawnContinue reading “Using Our Social Capital”
Liminal Space
Is anyone else having a hard time naming this space that we are in right now? We’re a month into 2021, and it’s pretty clear that 2020 wasn’t the problem. We’re 11 days into a new presidency, and while we can all take a collective deep breath now, our deep wounds remain unhealed. As theContinue reading “Liminal Space”
RAD 2021
We took a short break, that turned into a longer break. A breath, a pause, a wintering. We checked in with our own hearts and each other to ensure we were still in alignment with our offering. We’ve made some adjustments. Cut back in some places (we shall not worship the written word), growing inContinue reading “RAD 2021”

Reflecting on Self in this Moment
We find ourselves at the six month mark of Radical (Re)Imagining and it’s all come together better than we could have imagined! We have learned so much about ourselves and others through engaging in this reflective practice. When we began this project we intentionally chose to not map out our monthly prompts, but rather letContinue reading “Reflecting on Self in this Moment”
