Isabella Braveheart is an evolutionary performance artist and activist, speaker, playwright, director and producer who transmutes the pains of humanity into the voice of truth through bold multimedia transmissions and heart-centered, experiential events in service of bringing our global family back to wholeness and love. She has been called a Deep Water Heart Surgeon and an Urban Priestess and she calls herself a heart-trepreneur. Don’t miss her spoken word performance of “Patriot” and her thoughts on how we might reclaim this fraught term while prioritizing personal, then societal healing.

To start off the show, co-hosts Wendy Sheridan and Robin Renée chat in Timeline Cleanse about an unusual item on display at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam and the recent Sky Farm Arts & Music Festival in Basking Ridge, NJ. Robin and Wendy recount their No Kings Day experiences in Pièce de Résistance and discuss some activists’ tendency toward protest gatekeeping. Wendy shares another brief and important principle from On Tyrrany.
