Content Warning: Profanity, Somatic feelings of intense illness
Episode Description: Bilen Berhanu joins the show to share a story of hiking the Catskill Mountains as a disabled woman and experiencing the conflict between what her brain vs body needed.
In their own words: Born and raised in Ethiopia, currently based in Brooklyn (NY), Bilen is a lifelong enthusiast and student of all things outdoors. Bilen has an established full-spectrum doula practice. Her care work is grounded in liberatory practices of reclaiming agency and providing pathways to empowered experiences in life’s monumental transitions. In an effort to add to the movement to address disparities, Bilen is deeply committed to creating accessible, culturally competent, and LGBTQIA+ affirming experiences in the outdoors. Bilen graduated with a BA in Environmental Studies from Mount Holyoke College and an MA in Social Science: Environment & Community from Humboldt State University.
