The power of celebration with celebrant Theresa Ribeiro Conversation Changers

This week, I spoke to Theresa Ribeiro, a non-traditional, feminist celebrant based in the UK. She performs and officiates ceremonies, whether that’s weddings or partnership ceremonies, funerals or naming ceremonies. 
Humans love ceremony and ritual, we come together to mark occasions and we’ve done this for thousands of years. We need these spaces to celebrate, commiserate, grieve and mark them out, to connect with others as we change, as we move through our lives. I really think celebrating these moments are transformative and that’s why I wanted to find out more from Theresa what celebrants do and how we can mark these changes in our lives.
I talk to Theresa about life as a celebrant, what moments in our lives she officiates and the major changes in her life and ones she thinks we could mark out in different ways, for instance, divorce. When a relationship ends, how do we serve it, how do we commemorate it? Such an interesting conversation!
