What does it mean to heal the queer spirit? How might our queerness shape our spirituality and vice versa? How do we collaborate and contemplate in care and creativity?

In this first joint episode with the Queer Spirit podcast, TanyaMarck Oviedo, Nick Venegoni, and I explore the concept of 'healing the queer spirit.' While the three of us only recently connected, we quickly found flow and sweet kinship that felt profound and ancient.

We had juicy discussions around the process of seeing and embracing our experiences as queer people, the magic and work of growing creative collaborations, and queering our definitions of healing.
