This week, we’re opening the Rooted Resilience audio vault to share another preview of our conversation and upcoming podcast episode featuring the co-creators of Rooted Resilience - Luc (they/he) and M (they/them).
Luc (they/he) is the owner and founder of Bloom Local and has been cultivating and queering platforms and spaces that foster collective growth in the River Valley of Western Mass since 2021. Bloom Local’s mission is to unite locals with 2SLGBTQIA+-friendly businesses and organizations, nurturing a community where a culture of support blooms.
M (they/them) is an artist, entrepreneurial creative, and spiritual director who co-creates spaces, relationships, and experiences that affirm, center, delight, and strengthen under-represented intersectional communities and individuals. Their work under the umbrella of To Encounter Belonging includes partnership development, event programming for 2SLGBTQIA+ youth and caretakers, co-founding and managing Yet Another Queer Pop-Up Market, and their work as a Spiritual Director within the 2SLGBTQ+ community and the Bombyx Fellows program. Each of these is a reflection of their commitment to cultivating a deep and meaningful space for interconnection, agency, and resilience.
Rooted Resilience is a forthcoming podcast. Season One is set to launch in mid-March 2025.
