¡Seamos bosque nativo!

The end of September was such a generative moment in my life! Still under the energy and effects of the Fall equinox cellebration a week ago, flowing with the cycles continues taking me to transformative experiences.

Body, mind and spirit walk hand-in-hand. Alongside the literal invitation of the season to harvest the produce cultivated over the past months, this attunement to nature coincided with a beautiful opportunity to share the harvesting of so many colleagues doing research from feminist lenses during AtGender Conference.

Sharing knowledge, emotions, food, dreams and uncertainties has been so special. The effort I put in gardening [and researching ^^] allowed me to weave together with so many sensitve, capable, and multi-talented people. It brings a sense of accomplishment (and security) to witness and co-create spaces like that.

We also shared tea and (witch)craft. And I got to say that conferencing other-wise was a crucial moment to help me reasses my approach to my career and activism being situated in Europe. A post would not be enough, and an image, in this case, can say much more than I would be able to do using words.

I express my gratitude to this effemeral encounters and all the creatures that were part of this process. Thank you for helping me to put some pieces of my identity back together, decolonise a little more my mentality and my praxis, and for offering a supportive and respectful environment for my continuous co-becoming!
