There is a societal trend towards wanting instant results and avoiding the discomfort of being in the process. This aversion to uncertainty is reflected in education and training, which often emphasizes end results. However, the speaker challenges this mindset by valuing the process of questioning and self-discovery. Instead of providing definitive answers, she encourages individuals to explore their unique paths and find their own answers, recognizing that individual journeys may vary even when aiming for common goals like justice and peace.
In the past few years, resistance has been a live issue for many of us, whether we’re wondering for the first time how to bring about social change, or realising that we need to find new ways to be activists.
For Kaitlin Curtice, this resistance is an ongoing practice, informed by her perspective as an Indigenous American, and imbued with gentleness, integrity and personal sustainability. In this episode, we talk about her book, Living Resistance, how her own perspective developed over time, and - appropriately for this podcast - how we can live in this unsettling moment.
Katherine's new book, Enchantment, is available now: US/CAN and UK
