Cultures of Healing and Resistance // Simple Rituals for Shared Strength with Zena Rouse Winterbottom, Jude جودْ, Jessica Epperson-Lusty, Jimena Paratcha and Nikita Llerena- E244

How do we really engage and create cultures of healing and resistance? This episode, recorded at Lovejam, explores exactly that. Through song, poetry and shared wisdom, this circle brings together five incredible women from diverse backgrounds: Zena Rouse Winterbottom, Jude جودْ, Jessica Epperson-Lusty, Jimena Paratcha and Nikita Llerena. Together they reflect on ways to respond to violence and societal collapse through community, art, joy and reverence. Even in the most difficult circumstances, people continue to celebrate life - singing, dancing, and gathering together. Acts of resistance that become powerful forms of resilience, helping us hold grief and hope at the same time and reminding us what it means to stay human amid struggle. We hope that you are inspired and activated by the wisdom and courage of these incredible women and reminded of the power we have when we gather. Join us for The Rhythm : live meditation sessions twice a week with our community - no recordings to catch up on, just show up and breathe together. For links and more, visit
