facilitator | she/her/they/them

natalie is a community facilitator, interdisciplinary artist, life-long learner and creative soul. They have spent the last 20 years connecting and collaborating with diverse communities on Turtle Island (North America) and in Nubia (Egypt - her ancestral home). They facilitate the co-creation of learning environments that nurture presence, care and vulnerability alongside playful exploration and spaciousness for inner wisdom to emerge and guide - embracing a vision of solidarity, justice and transformation from the inside-out. It is through the blending of deeply creative, embodied and participatory practices, that they support individuals and groups to reflect, share, learn and grow alongside one another for the purpose of organizational learning and change, equity and diversity, conflict resolution, and collective emancipation.
