Sydney Searchwell-Simpson is a writer, activist, public speaker, permaculture practitioner, and devoted lover of Life whose work seamlessly merges spirituality and cultural transformation. Drawing from her lived experiences of surviving sexual and domestic violence, her spiritual journey, and a lifetime of activism, her life and work explores how we can heal, love, and liberate ourselves from the grip of what she calls “domination consciousness.” With a deep love of learning and an expansive perspective, Sydney approaches her work holistically, weaving together insights from history, politics, ecology, relationships, culture, storytelling and spirituality.

In this initial conversation with Sydney, we were delighted to find out how much we shared in how we relate to being alive at this time of critical social and planetary upheaval. We hope you find the discussion as uplifting as we did.
