Karen O’Donnell - Radical Practices for Remaking the Self (N332)

No stranger to loss and trauma, feminist theologian, Karen O'Donnell helps us to reconsider some commonly held perspectives around spiritual practice. Sharing from research and lived experience, she offers insight into how we might benefit from reimagining our approach to rebuilding and remaking ourselves in the aftermath of difficult, or damaging, life experiences. 

Following the interview, hosts Anna Robinson and Joy Brooks consider how their spiritual practices have changed alongside their shifting faith and experiences of harm.

Interview starts at 13m 17s
