Radical (Re)imagining Libby Smith

The OTHER Erin Gilmore - Radical (Re)imagining S3 E9
Radical (Re)Imagining hosts Deven Wisner, Tiffany Tovey, & Libby Smith are joined by Erin Gilmore, yes – our second Erin Gilmore. Listen to hear the story! This Erin is a San Francisco-based yoga, meditation, and breathwork teacher with a unique modern style and specialty in trauma-informed yoga. She describes her teaching style as Pilates meets dance meets yoga. 
This year we’ve chosen to focus a little less on how the work gets done and a little more on who we are in the work. That translates to ongoing attention to how we’re showing up and purposeful self-examination. We hope our conversations and guests inspire you to do just that.
 
We discussed the following resources:
 
Try some Living Room Yoga with Erin
 
Find meditation and breathwork with Erin on the Open app
 
Erin learned about Non-violent communication with Judith Hanson Lasater
 
Down Dog app that got Libby & Deven through the early part of the pandemic
 
We also mentioned Elizabeth Grim’s work on inclusive and non-violent language.

Dr. Vidhya Shanker - Radical (Re)imagining S3 E6
Radical (Re)Imagining hosts Tiffany Tovey, & Libby Smith are joined by Vidhya Shanker, PhD, is an interdependent and interdisciplinary evaluation practitioner, scholar, organizer, and activist. Using an intersectional paradigm, her research bridges critical theories of systemic oppression with systems thinking to examine how racialized difference is constructed in and through evaluation. She puts the result of that research into practice to interrogate, identify, and articulate the processes that reinforce—and disrupt—oppressive power dynamics in, through, and around evaluation and the racially stratified industries that use its services.
