When I am asked what my current exploration is, I am quick to say it’s about healing- healing the self, healing relationships, healing workspaces, healing communities.
The term doesn’t always land well on people. Some see it as something that is not applicable in organizational settings. They even think healing is not what companies or institutions need. Yet for me, I firmly believe that if we are to usher in new systems and new ways of doing like how we are all clamoring for, it is important that we set the time, energy, and space to devote to healing. The repair is much needed for all the wounds and trauma from the past and the present.
Healing might not be the word that resonates with you, yet conflict management, DEI, social justice, Neurodiversity -areas that we are focused on these days - all need restoration at its core.
It is through healing that we can usher in new systems, where we can find each other in the edges.
WAYFINDING IN THE EDGES
We are in this space
Where the old doesn’t fit
Yet the new is yet to emerge
Is still to be reimagined,
rediscovered,
reclaimed.
We are in this time
Where the old’s dominion is slowly fading
And the grasp of old systems
Tightly holding on to power.
Stabilized to their roles,
to their mandates,
to their clauses
Are ushered by walk outs
Wayfinding in the edges.
Changemakers who believe in possibilities
In a future not only for the select few.
Where the voices of those silenced, marginalized, oppressed
Are brought in with care
Listened to with compassion
Invited to the table.
In these trenches, we see
the hope of humanity unfolding.
Generations clamoring for change.
From the young to the old
From the south to the north
And to the far corners in between.
People finding themselves
As hospices of the dying systems.
Caring for the embers with grace.
Bridge builders, extending their hands
To those deeply entrenched in their power.
One step at a time.
And there are those of us in the trenches
Tasked with morally imagining the unknown.
Radically trusting of a future
Ripe with community,
With compassion,
With belonging,
With wellbeing,
The inifinite hope moving us forward.
To new systems, new ways of being
From a space of regeneration,
From a space of restoration.
For the way for us to find ourselves
in these trenches,
is to start the process of healing
And our wayfinding is through our hearts.
Mending the past, and the present,
Answering the call for the future
And leading us gently back to each other.
