This course is for those standing in-between… not quite where they were, not yet where they’re going. It’s for the ones in spiritual rupture, cultural dislocation, professional reinvention, or relational overhaul. For anyone in transition both chosen or imposed, who is asking: What now? What of me remains? What of me must change? We meet in the in-between, where the old scripts no longer fit, and the new ones are still being written.
We begin by naming the space-between. What is ending? What is becoming? We explore liminality as sacred, disorienting, and generative. We do this through personal timelines, collective upheaval, and mythic echoes.
This week we tend to loss of identity, belonging, clarity. We reflect on what cannot be carried forward, and what it costs to loosen our grip. Drawing on our work on dis-identification, we consider grief as both rupture and rite.
Who speaks from the threshold? We explore how voice can change when identity is in flux and how silence, stammering, or uncertainty are not weakness, but fidelity to becoming. Creative expression and witness work hold us here.
How do we return to the world with altered sight? We consider how transitions are not linear but cyclical. What practices sustain us? What stories do we carry forward? We close with ritual, reclamation, and gently held beginnings.
Four weeks of embodied and reflective co-holding. Each 90-minute session includes slow arrival, a short thematic input (drawing on authors like Arendt, Kristeva, Anzaldúa), and shared narrative practice. Participants will be invited but never required to bring fragments of their own stories, and to begin crafting personal anchors that can travel with them across thresholds.
We work with imagery, metaphor, art and cultural memory. Between theologies, migration studies, narrative therapy, and psychoanalysis, this is a space for the soul in flux.
