Decentering Whiteness and Re-Learning Culture with Rhea Goodrum

What does it take to de-center whiteness and create spaces where ALL people can experience nourishment?

What does it look like to nurture harmony experience healing together amidst systems of oppression that impact each of us so differently?

How might spiritual practice support us in these endeavors?

These are the questions I explore with my colleague and collaborator, Rhea Goodrum, in preparation for this year's winter solstice Nourish retreat.

Rhea is a Chamorrita with roots from Guam in the Mariana Islands.  She is a spiritual activist, and seeks to reconnect us to the wisdom and life skills of Indigenous Peoples to nourish our personal rhythm, and the rhythms of our environment. 

In this episode, Rhea shares about her eclectic spiritual journey, her experience as a participant of the Nourish retreat, and what she aims to offer to other women of color in that space.

We wade into the awkward waters of ancestral access, navigating whiteness, and nurturing intercultural spaces with authenticity, equity and grace.
