Welcome to the first episode of The Listening Way. In this episode, Dusk is joined by Kyle Slabb.
Kyle Slabb is a Gudjingburra Bundjalung descendant from the Far north Coast of NSW. He has been involved in cultural consultancy and education for more than 20 years.
Working on developing young indigenous leaders for the last 10 years has taken him and his team all over the country, from urban aboriginal communities to some of the most remote. Kyle believes that every aboriginal person has a right to a cultural education, and the value of that education is a huge asset to their communities, also their employees, and our society at large.
In the episode we discover:
- Listening through the connection with land and water
- Layers of listening
- Meeting ourselves with safety when listening to the darkness of the mind
- Listening to our spirit above the ‘noise’ of life
- Why do we resist entering spaces that encourage deeper and broader listening
- Asking ourselves, who are we really?
- How is seeing another way of listening?
Thank you for listening!
The Listening Way is a love letter to listening. It holds contemplative conversations on how listening shapes our way of being in the world. The podcast uncovers the different ways that we listen and invites us to practice them again. Hosted by Dusk Liney from The Listening Squad, where we dream of a listening revolution where every person is heard.
Let’s reclaim the lost art of listening.
