038 Sean Harvey
<p>Join Nadia Chaney and Sean Harvey in a deeply hopeful conversation about courage and compassion, and a deep dive into healing the masculine. Sean makes a compelling case that healing men is the most direct path to transforming systems.</p><p>Sean Harvey has spent his career going where most facilitators won't: into police departments, military units, prisons, and far-right extremist circles, and doing it with love. Sean shares his remarkable journey from homeless and couch-surfing in post-9/11 New York, to doing soul-healing work with the hardest-to-reach men in America, with a rich breadth of experience in between.</p><p>They explore how to meet hate, and also question if there is a place for it. You'll hear why belonging and unhealed wounds drive radicalization, and how our inner work becomes the foundation for working in groups. Sean introduces his frameworks: the stomach, will, skill, and cred; the bridging mindset; and using courage, curiosity and compassion in all his work. For more about Sean, check out his website at the Warrior Compassion Institute: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.warriorcompassion.com">https://www.warriorcompassion.com</a></p><p>Enjoy the episode!</p>

We are new friends, though I think we have been circling each other for some time. As an artist and a creative facilitator Rhys is formidable: deep, intellectual, creative, subtle and magical. They work primarily in food systems sovereignty but also beyond and have started a wonderful integrated arts space in their home town. I find all their efforts quite inspiring and I imagine you will, too.</p>

036 Elioa Steffan
<p>I’m excited to bring you this podcast with one of my dearest friends and collaborators, Elioa Steffen. Elioa was an essential part of the Time Zone Research Lab, but our friendship goes back many years before that all the way to the early days of facilitating Power of Hope youth camps. At the Time Zone Elioa’s nickname was the obsidian blade because she is so sharply insightful. You will hear that sharp intelligence shining through this interview, balanced with a truly heart-felt sense of inclusion and a tender and poignant personal experience. In this podcast she is talking about a book she co-authored called A Queer Feedback Handbook, Experiments in Otherwise Arts Education. It really is a handbook, full of useful frames and activities.</p><p>To learn more about her work, or to buy the handbook, visit <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.elisteffen.com">https://www.elisteffen.com</a>.</p><p><strong>Elioa Steffen</strong> (She/They, USA/NL) is an artist and researcher working in the fields of performance, writing, and social practice. Her work focuses on the intersection of communal narratives, cultural norms, and systemic violence. In 2021, Elioa co-founded <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.atd.ahk.nl/en/das-research/projects/ipop/">In Pursuit of Otherwise Possibilities, Queer Performance Pedagogy and Feedback</a> (IPOP) an educational, artistic research platform exploring pedagogical strategies for supporting queer artists. She is also an Associate Researcher at ATD Lectorate and works in several collaborative constellations exploring trans-feminine voice in religious ecstasy and the pedagogical possibilities of madness.</p><p>Elioa’s performances commissioned and produced by The Warp, DOOResidency, (Amsterdam) Gay City, On the Boards, Studio Current, (Seattle), Risk/Reward (Portland), Dixon Place (New York), and Vashon Center for the Arts (Vashon Island) among others.
