Episode 5 Rituals of Becoming: Magic and Disability as Transformation
In this conversation, I sit down with my friend Raven Hinojosa to trace the threads of our connection—how ritual, magic, and care weave through our friendship. We talk about:
How our relationship shifted when Raven joined me in disability and illness
Following ease and pleasure, even in pain
Evolving and unfurling without needing to “fix” ourselves
The role of ritual and creativity in deepening love and interdependence
This episode is an invitation into the ways friendship, disability, and magic hold us together.
Stay tender. Stay tangled. Stay held together.
