Oh my has this episode been a long time coming. But it is landing here at just the right time.
My dear friend and mentor Stefana Serafina is our guest today. Her work has transformed my life. The way I live in my body and what I experience because of the intimate relationship with its language.
It became a very rich conversation about body, my body, your body, the body as the extension of Earth. .
A conversation and reflection about the risk of not including our bodies (again!) in the visioning for the new world that might be shaping with this crisis.
About the body having to be the guide and the way in this hopeful emergence of a renewed human race.
I’m so excited to share her work with you! We would love to hear what you take away from this episode.
