MY STORY
Who am I ?
Hey, my name is Kalin, the creator of caringfor.space. I’m an experienced facilitator and activist who has been working in the queer, feminist, climate, antifascist, forest, vegan, and intersectional scene for many years. I’m passionate about exploring the world of emotions, developing workshops, and working with group power dynamics. As a feelings and bodywork facilitator, I support people connecting with their inner selves and healing from traumas of experienced oppressions. My work is rooted in a deep understanding of the nurturing aspect of community building and the importance of creating exploration spaces for self-expression.
When holding space for a group/individual I focus on the process and flow. As a facilitator, I help bring out the vulnerable parts of us to the room. I aim to create a comforting container where we learn to fulfill our needs and heal from our past.
I stay present and active by supporting when we stumble on a block of communication and connection. Showing how conflicts and diversity can nourish our lives as well as projects, and what can be possible when we responsibly address them.
I value diversity as one of the
biggest strengths of our life process, groups and planet Earth.
