Honoring Joanna Macy w/Lydia Violet Harutoonian

In the wake of Joanna Macy's death and with You're Going to Die's upcoming San Francisco event - A Wild Love for the World: An Evening Honoring Joanna Macy - host Ned Buskirk speaks with Lydia Violet Harutoonian, a scholar in Joanna Macy's work and a collaborator of Macy's for over 16 years. An Iranian-Armenian-American facilitator, public speaker, and musician, Lydia is devoted to inner and outer ecological renewal and cultural healing, facilitating group work across many communities, weaving together systems of thinking, deep ecology, and emotional resilience in the face of global crisis. She is the founder of the School for The Great Turning, a learning community where activism and spiritual practice meet. With training in community organizing and trauma-informed facilitation, she offers grounded emotional support to individuals and communities navigating burnout, grief, and the psychological weight of living in socio-ecological crises.
