Summary
How does sensing into our zones of stretch, comfort, and panic help us to expand our capacities for love and nonviolence — in their more radical iterations? Where might accountability come from in a world that seems to reward behaviors that are extractive, exploitative, and narcissistic?
Our latest conversation features Kazu Haga, the author of Fierce Vulnerability, who invites us to shift the ways that we understand “power” and to center relational healing when addressing injustice.
What does it mean for us to step into the role of becoming healers of collective trauma?

| 0:00.0 | Hey, it's your host, Kamea. I just wanted to quickly share that Alchemize, our 12-week audio-based program of daily imagination and creative practices, is now open for enrollment again. My personal favorite theme from the program is Into Otherness, where I personally lead a practice called You Are Water, and some of our past guests lead |
| 0:22.2 | invitations like, you are a honeybee, or you are lichen, or you are fermenting. |
| 0:28.1 | There are also grounding practices to support you to re-web yourself within your more-than-human |
| 0:33.2 | community, and so much more. The question I had was, what could it be like to go beyond just |
| 0:39.0 | thinking about the topics that we often discuss on the show and to engage them in more |
| 0:44.2 | interactive and embodied ways? If this speaks to you, I welcome you to join us today at |
| 0:49.7 | greendreamer.com slash alchemize. I want to be part of a movement that centers our own healing, not so that we can be healed, |
| 0:59.9 | because I think in an interdependent world, individual liberation is a delusion. |
| 1:03.6 | There's no such thing, right? |
| 1:04.9 | I want to be part of a movement that centers our own healing so that we can build a movement |
| 1:10.5 | that is grounded enough |
| 1:12.0 | to be able to harness the power necessary to stop injustice, |

| 1:32.4 | You're listening to Green Dreamer, and I'm your host, Kameh Shane. |
| 1:39.2 | From our past conversations with El Noralada, Prentice Hemphill, and Abby Reyes, and more, |
| 1:45.3 | I'm excited to keep exploring this question of what it means to tether our inner work of healing with the outer work of systemic transformation. Because they really go hand in hand, right? |
| 1:51.2 | And I think for me, these are some of the most memorable conversations because they speak to our |
| 1:56.8 | hearts and souls and wounds. I know I always feel really seen by these discussions, |
| 2:03.7 | and I'd be curious how they feel and land for you as well. Today's episode is no different, |
| 2:10.8 | or I mean, it's definitely got its own unique flavor and flow, but Kazu Haga, our guest, |
| 2:16.7 | and I continue reflecting on this question of how we can |
