Nina Simons: Beyond Binaries, Towards Solidarity
Bioneers | Published: April 6, 2024 Nature, Culture and Spirit Video
The co-founder of Bioneers and its Chief Relationship Strategist, author most recently of Nature, Culture & The Sacred: A Woman Listens for Leadership, sets the stage for each year’s conference and did it on the occasion of Bioneers’ 35th anniversary by acknowledging the unusually intense anguish and pain underlying the pressing crises we are currently facing, but sharing her own need to balance activist engagement with self-care, inner exploration, and an honoring of our personal and collective grief.
This talk was delivered at the 2024 Bioneers Conference. Read a written version of this talk here.
