114. Leah Garza: Belonging In Living Systems

To me, Leah Garza embodies what it means to be a devoted student of big questions. Working with Leah in the past couple years has helped me open doors to parts of self I didn't know exist and question the fabric of 'reality' as I was taught. 

In this conversation, we discussed her approach to teaching as a way of creating communities that foster intellectual intimacy, the connection between her decolonial and esoteric studies, and, most importantly, why Leah Garza does not exist. 

Leah's bio:

Currently she is writing her dissertation on topics in depth psychology, decoloniality and ontology.
