TICKETS TO DANCING WITH DARKNESS

Drawing from her personal experiences, research, and insights, Darcia invites us to rethink relationship, reimagine kinship, and rediscover child-rearing through an ecological lens. We discuss her research on “the evolved nest” and how it can inspire more balanced, harmonious ways of living and growing together.
We explore the layers of nestedness—communal, intergenerational, and cosmic—revealing how these deep connections shape our well-being and the health of our communities. Darcia illuminates the contrast between Western and Indigenous wisdom traditions, offering a path back to the kinship worldview that can guide us toward balance, compassion, and a deeper sense of Belonging.
From the magic of breastmilk to the restorative power of play, and from the significance of the perinatal experience to the reverberations of morality throughout the Web of Life, this conversation calls us to rethink our place in the world and how we care for ourselves, one another, and all of Life, beckoning us toward a more balanced, interconnected, and nurturing way of Being.
