Recollect Season 1 Episode 3 The Grace in Silence & Pausing a Way to Black Women’s Knowing with Mignon Hooper

Recollect: Black Women Decolonizing thru Story & Nature

Just in time for giving thanks. There is so much gratitude for this conversation. It is a Sunday, November 14th. The sun is shining Mignon Hooper and I are 2 Black 50 something year old women walking in the wood at the Eno River and she has spoken of pausing and I have responded. We talk about pausing and reconnecting with your wisdom so that the “more” that is to be learned about relationships can be learned. We have been friends for 20 years and have learned to trust each other thru the fluidity of relationship and to know that we won’t ever get lost in the woods. Or will we? We encounter other beings, our ancestors, the water and its healing beauty, and our own spiritual voices in this conversation.

Mignon Hooper is a Licensed Bilingual Psychotherapist. She does intentional, collaborative healing work that honors our mutual wisdom, courage, and resilience. As she says, making meaning is the gift that keeps on giving.

Don’t forget, Recollect is listener supported so drop some coins the juke box and push play. Enjoy
