A podcast about responding to the political and ecological crises of our times through the lens of relationship.

  • Updated Biweekly

From climate crisis to childhood trauma, we are a culture focused on solutions. A fear of uncertainty in our relationships, work, and movements cuts us off from our wisest, most creative, and visionary potential. When our bodies struggle to stay with the unknown, our reflex is often to grasp for power and control. Lost Together asks: What would become possible if we responded to the political and ecological crises of our times through the lens of relationship rather than individual protection? What if we stopped trying to find solutions, and started trying to find each other? For over 20 years Marika has explored the intersection of embodiment and collective liberation as a writer, organizer, and somatics practitioner. In conversation with friends and collaborators, Marika explores the wisdom uncertainty has to offer us and shares grounded, practical tools for cultivating strong relationships with each other and our more-than-human kin in the midst of the great unknown. marikaheinrichs.substack.com

    What does Regeneration Mean?

    What does Regeneration mean? Welcome to our first glossary episode! There are so many words and terms that we use in the field of somatics, social justice, and the politicized healing sphere that we don’t always have the same understandings around, or take the time to really explain. This can both lead to misunderstandings, and a kind of gatekeeping. I want the kind of brave conversations we’re having here to feel open and invitational so, the Lost Together Glossary was born! Each week between our interview episodes we’ll share a word or term from our previous conversation and spend some time breaking it down, meditating on its various meanings, and I’ll share a bit about my relationship with the word or term. Think of it less as a dictionary, and more as a living document of shared language — one that is always evolving. If you have suggestions or requests for future glossary entries, paid subscribers can submit queries for our bonus Q+A episodes every month on Substack: marikaheinrichs.substack.com/ If you haven't listened yet to my conversation with Nisha and Lua on how they are practicing Regeneration in real time, you can go back and find it in last weeks' episode. This week our first glossary entry is on Regeneration. I hope you enjoy!

  2. How The Land Teaches Us To Be In Relationship With Each Other

    How The Land Teaches Us To Be In Relationship With Each Other

    “When we are together, there is me, there is her, and there is a third person, there’s our relationship and we are trying to know it better each time we meet.” This weeks’ guests are Luana Couto and Nisha Mary Poulose. Lua is a researcher, educator and storyteller from the Brazilian Amazon. Her work lives where ancestral knowledge meets futures thinking. She partners with Purpy and Futuro Possivel to bring regenerative practices into organizations and communities worldwide. Nisha is an architect and bioregional planner with a passion for socio-ecological transformation and regenerative systems. She is the founder of Woven Design Collaborative—a firm that designs, strategises and weaves at the confluence of human habitat, planning, and the environment.  This conversation explores the deep and often messy connection between land and relationship. Lua and Nisha share their journeys, practices, and perspectives on healing, trauma, and collective transformation. You’ll hear us refer to a retreat. We spent a week together in Italy alongside other teachers including Bayo Akómoláfé, Laura Peña Zaneta, and a group of climate justice activists and artists from the global south, practicing embodying regeneration in real time. You’ll also hear the impacts of some powerful weather on the quality of audio in a couple of places.
