    Art & Therapy | Address Creatively #013

    Art is a powerful instrument for social transformation. Art is a gift that CAN bring healing to the individual with the gift, and to society as a whole. Art can therefore be a very powerful tool in therapy. If Creatives take time to sit with the art that they have created, most times it could help them SEE the things that are caught up in their subconscious. And if as a society we take time to listen, see, hear & savour art, most times it will tell us a lot about ourselves, as a people. So, how can Creatives practice how to release themselves from any and all encumbrances that make it difficult to enjoy the gift of healing that exists within? Let’s talk about it in the 13th episode of the #WajibiqaPodcast

    Gender | The Identity Crisis Conundrum #012

    Ambiguity; gender ambiguity, carries within it the possibility of a crisis, the possibility of confusion. And in the same breath, fluidity by itself, as a concept, can be a valuable posture. Fluidity is an invitation to continuously evaluate what you believe, and adopt a willingness to shift swiftly if you come into the realization that your theory is wrong. So how do you balance those two? How do you learn to exist in the tension of holding these two SEEMINGLY contradicting truths at the same time? Let’s talk about it in the 12th episode of the #WajibiqaPodcast ______ This episode’s methali on Jifunze Kiswahili; Mwenda pole hajikwai; a person that takes their time, goes slow, is not in a hurry, that person, does not stub their toe.

    Mental Health | When People SEEM to be Triggering #011

    As much as being with people can be highly triggering, being with people can be as useful as looking into a mirror that helps us see the spaces in ourselves that need work. In the 11th episode of the #WajibiqaPodcast I challenge those of us who are on a journey toward healing to learn how to belong to communities that support and admonish, rather than exploit, enable thus derail. The month of May is #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth. May you have the courage and curiosity that will lead you to investigate yourself in a very honest manner, and to OFTEN intentionally choose self-awareness over, and over again. _____ This episode’s methali on Jifunze Kiswahili; Kinyozi hajinyoi; a barber does not shave his own head.

    Balance | Existing in THE Tension #010

    As human beings, we often gravitate toward false dichotomies that present choices as an either-or, and most times it’s not an either-or situation, it’s just that finding options beyond the either-or requires a lot of work, a lot of conversation, a lot of grace, a lot of gentleness, a lot of patience, and so the either-or alternative becomes the default and easier option. In the 10th episode of the #WajibiqaPodcast I challenge us to learn how to exist in the tension; the tension of holding two SEEMINGLY contradicting truths, at the same time. For often you’ll find that both can exist together. ______ This episode’s methali on Jifunze Kiswahili; Fimbo ya mbali, haiuwi nyoka; a weapon that is not in your hand, cannot kill a snake.

    Ageism | The Vicious Circle of Shame #009

    How often we shift uneasily at the thought of taking on a new journey toward being, at a stage that is “late in life”. How often we hold on anxiously to who we think we are, swatting off any perceived ideas of a call to adjust at a point that is “late in life”. And so, how often we settle comfortably into mediocrity. ______ This episode’s methali on Jifunze Kiswahili; Ukiona vyaelea, jua vimeundwa; if you see vessels floating, be YE cognizant of the fact that, a lot of effort has been put into achieveing that state of keeping them afloat.

    Uncertainty | Maneuvering “in it, but not of it” Realities #008

    This episode is meant to address trail-blazers, innovators, creators of things, and generally just human beings who are travelling down roads that are rarely travelled. What do you do when society’s economy of belonging will cost you your true face? In the 8th episode of the #WajibiqaPodcast I share my thoughts and musings on the complexities of existing in “nothing else to compare it to” realitites, and therein journeying through continuously and intentionally putting effort into placing value on the things that actually matter. Pull a seat, we made room for you at the table. _________ This episode’s methali on Jifunze Kiswahili; Mgema akisifiwa, tembo hulitia maji; immediately after a palm wine tapper is praised, that’s when he dilutes the palm wine with water.

    Addressing | When Awkward is Progressive #007

    Addressing difficult issues can be a source of great unease; confronting someone’s lack of integrity, or lack of respect, or lack of truth. However, the aftermath of such conversations can be very progressive. In the 7th episode of the #WajibiqaPodcast I share my thoughts and musings on the dilemmas that existed in my journey toward reclaiming my voice from years of voiceless-ness, learning the importance of being real, and the importance of communicating even when it felt unfamiliar, unsettling, awkward, and highly uncomfortable.

    Love | This plane called “FREEDOM” #006

    Love MUST, of necessity, exist within a plane called freedom. However, freedom does not come without a cost to the individual, or to those around them. In the 6th episode of the #WajibiqaPodcast I share my thoughts and musings on the dilemmas surrounding love in an era where the general attitude is that we must get WHAT we want, WHEN we want it, and HOW we want it. Pull a seat, welcome to the table.
