In this conversation we hear Hannah and Zena talk about caring ferociously, macho homemaking, living life as a committed spinster, work as a trauma response and domestic embodiment.

Weekend Intensive: Mending With Gold
December 9-11, 2022
Join KTC’s co-directors for a virtual weekend intensive with a concentrated and highly personalized curriculum designed to support care workers*. We hope to challenge the unrealistic expectations of the care work industrial complex, nurture pathways for reconnecting with pleasure and develop enlivening professional practices/strategies.
Enrolling Spring 2023:
The Embodied Private Practice Cohort is a year-long mentorship offering for clinicians who are beginning or revisioning private practice with a focus on embodiment and sustainability. Combining reality-based, capacity-conscious clinical and business consultation, mentorship will focus on the ways that therapists can be nurtured by clinical practice, avoid burnout, and commit to sustainability, self care and healing.

KINTSUGI THERAPIST COLLECTIVE
To apply for the Fall Embodied Private Practice Cohort: kintsugitherapistcollective.com
If you are not a care worker, consider purchasing some Kintsugi Therapist Collective merchandise. When you buy a t-shirt, hoodie, or tote bag, you support the sustainability of this developing business that needs a bit of a nest egg so that we can offer scholarships, send our collective members to conferences and retreats and sustain and make actionable, the radical vision of this collective.
--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/asher-pandjiris/messageThank you Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha, Bridget Bertrand and Dr. Jennie Wang-Hall who attempted to address the question: What does it mean to be a care worker in the third year of this global pandemic?
Thank you for the additional question.....“What happens when we are reached for, and we are the alternative system, and we are completely tapped out?” (Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha)
and
thoughts on rushing towards denial, heartbreak, disability justice, "i can't go to your party," "no vietnam war memorial for the covid dead," deep grief, being in crisis and at capacity, stuck in trauma loops, building alternative systems care, hope in abolition, connecting in rage and grief and creating and joining collectives.
CARE WORK: Dreaming Disability Justice By Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha
--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/asher-pandjiris/messageMugabi Byenkya is an award- winning writer who was born to Ugandan parents in Nigeria and is currently based in Kampala. Mugabi lives outside the gender binary and has a seizure disorder, chronic fatigue and experiences the world in a way that some would describe as “neurodivergent.” In 2018, Mugabi was named one of 56 writers who has contributed to his native Uganda’s literary heritage in the 56 years since independence by Writivism (East Africa’s largest literary festival). Mugabi wants to be Jaden Smith when he grows up.
In this interview we cover so many topics including the distraction of reading comics while bed-bound, falling in love with writing, identifying access needs as someone with a seizure disorder, chronic fatigue and other health conditions, living in a volatile body, toxic masculinity, why Cambodia has infrastructure that makes it a good place to have a physical disability, why haircuts can be painful for folks with sensory sensitivities, keeping a secret blog, racism in the American healthcare system and learning how to mask disability.

Kintsugi Therapist Collective
Kintsugi Therapist Collective’s Embodied Private Practice Cohort (EPPC), a year-long mentorship for clinicians who are beginning or revisioning private practice with a focus on embodiment and sustainability is now enrolling our September Cohort. We will continue reading applications on a rolling basis until all available spots are filled. Due to the waiting list generated last time around, we encourage anyone interested to apply as soon as possible, as openings are limited. Our hope is that by providing a space to support therapists that welcomes, rather than disregards, the parts of self that therapists too often feel afraid or ashamed to invite ‘into the room,’ we will assist in activating liberatory possibilities for space holders and their clients. To apply, go to kintsugitherapistcollective.com

Always Coming Home: A disordered eating support group
registration: https://forms.gle/j5x9uhfHQUPrietB8
--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/asher-pandjiris/messageToday I am thrilled to celebrate the 3 year anniversary of the podcast! We’ve had over 250,000 downloads and released 51 full length episodes along with some really powerful pandemic dispatches. Living in this Queer Body has become a platform that has connected queers through instagram, workshops and group intensives. This community has allowed me to get to know so many beautiful, inspiring and generative people and I am humbled at all that has come into being over these past 3 years. I look forward to many more. Our guest on today's episode showed up with such openness and willingness to ask and answer complex questions, someone who is inhabiting the X and offering us all some hard won tips about how to radically accept and honor our care needs.
What began as a series of conversations about Olivia Laing’s fascinating book “Everybody” during the second year of the pandemic became a full length interview in which Joey Soloway and I talk about their trans family, the 6 genders in the Torah, the feeling of cross dressing as a cis woman, the importance of having a coven or care team as a trans human, moving away from "admin as a love language," naming what often goes unnamed, epigenetics and much more.
Joey Soloway is an artist, activist and filmmaker. They created the Emmy– and Golden Globe–winning series Transparent, cult feminist series I Love Dick, as well as Afternoon Delight, which received the Sundance Directing Award. They are currently working on The South Commons Experiment, a documentary about race, architecture and memory. They are the co-founder of 5050 by 2020, launched East Side Jews, and are on the board of Nefesh Temple. They are amidst development on podcast, television and film projects that fulfill the Topple Production’s mission of elevating marginalized artists and their stories.
