In this thought-provoking episode, Sarah Hopkinson, a māmā, curriculum designer, urban farmer, and storyteller, joins Melanie to unravel the intricate threads of identity, ancestry, and the environment.
Sarah delves into what it means to be Pākehā in Aotearoa, reflecting on collective accountability, the deep-rooted values shaping our land, and the relationship between humans and the more-than-human world.
As a passionate advocate for te Tiriti justice and sustainable education, Sarah shares her journey of decolonising education, the transformative power of somatic practices, and how growing food has rekindled her connection to the Earth.
We explore the role of metaphors in shaping cultural narratives, the healing potential of embracing discomfort, and the importance of fostering collective well-being.
Sarah also reflects on the broader societal shifts needed to enact te Tiriti in Aotearoa, and how we can cultivate a future where diverse ways of being thrive in harmony with nature and each other.
