   Phenomenal: Ria Soemardjo

   I’m Trisna, a psychologist with an interest in the wellbeing and fulfilment of artists, performers, creatives and all those who follow their passions. Phenomenal is a podcast about walking in the shoes of some exceptional people who have paved their own way in life. In this podcast, I hope to not only introduce these phenomenal people, but also give an opportunity to understand them phenomenologically – by hearing their lived experience. For more information: www.iamreadypsychology.com/podcast-2/ Several philosophers and sociologists have commented on what is lost with the erosion of ritual and the acceleration of modern life. In a conversation that allowed pause to reflect on daily life, history, culture, place, politics, creativity and community, Ria Soemardjo and I explored what it means to grow up and create across cultures, find shared language, and to experience the power of community ritual. Ria reflected on navigating challenges and being sustained by human connections that open portals into new worlds of creative work. For more information about Ria Soemardjo’s projects visit: https://www.riavoice.com/ The Phenomenal Podcast is recorded on the sovereign lands of the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung and Bunurong Boon Wurrung Peoples of the Eastern Kulin Produced and presented by Trisnasari Fraser Recorded and edited by Alisha Brooks

For more information: www.iamreadypsychology.com/podcast-2/ In a week where our country's political debate regressed fifty years to discussions of monoculture, I was nourished by a beautiful conversation with Nela Trifković and Goran Ðurić about crossing boundaries, embracing in betweenness, and opening up to other people's lives and experience through arts engagement. We spoke about the loss of childhood to war, art being fundamental to resilience, resistance and transformation, and the power of communing through creative endeavour.
