A Rebellion of Care with David Gate
Description
I had the privilege of sitting down with viral poet and author David Gate to talk about his recent beautiful book Rebellion of Care—a straight-from-the-heart exploration of how self-care and mutual care are radical and urgent in a culture that prizes productivity over people. We looked at how trauma shapes our relationships, why friendship and community are survival skills, and how language and art help us say the things our bodies already know.
David read several of his beautiful poems, and touched something so deeply in me he made me cry. Felt good. Highly recommend.
I am so grateful to bring forward this practical, honest conversation about what it takes to stay connected to ourselves and each other when the world keeps pulling us apart. It has never felt more necessary, and I am so grateful for wise people like David, gently showing us the way.
