Being in transition, with Rebekah Ubuntu
Season 2, Episode 15, Sep 18, 12:30 PM
In this week’s episode of The Unmasking Unschool Podcast,
I am joined by Rebekah Ubuntu (they/them, she/her)
who generously shares their unique perspective on what it means to be in transition;
Refusing to be a finished product; a destination, a known self,
and being open to the mystery of being in process.
Rebekah articulates felt truths that have emerged inside the experience of not knowing, and not needing to know, who they are becoming next;
"refusal as an act of love"
“in honouring refusal, I am also visualising everything that is refused, not being rejected or thrown away […] Composting as a literal phenomena [that] I derive a lot of hope, not necessarily optimism, but hope that even in the face of life destroying forces, that nature has a way of bringing some kind of balance.”
