Cultivating Creative Seasons with Jacqueline Suskin
Special Bonus + New episode of Common Shapes
This week on Common Shapes podcast, I’m deep in conversation with poet, teacher, and my dear friend,
Jacqueline is a poet and educator who has been teaching workshops, writing books, hosting retreats and creating spontaneous poetry around the world since 2009. She’s published eight books, and her most recent one, A Year In Practice, was just released with Sounds True press.
This will be the last episode before a holiday break and pause going into the new year. I love doing the podcast so much and am officially starting GRAD SCHOOL in January and will be focusing on the advice column and writing in this space. But I will leave you with a special treat at the bottom of this email.
Together we talk about seasonal practices, radically reconnecting with the Earth, Fern Gully, writing multiple books, having multiple calendars, and choosing to remember.
Tune in to learn about :
🧶 The radical nature of connecting to the Earth’s cycles
🧦 How to tap into seasonal rhythms
🕸 Jacqueline’s daily & weekly planning practices
🌿 What’s our work & what’s not our work
🌼 How to hold nuance in your writing
“I am not unaware of the atrocities and oppressions that happen around the world. I actually create work in response to trying to be present with that and make things that are accessible for all types of people so that they can then remember that they have poetry within them, they have a voice, there’s a way for them to use it and practice using it.”
Jacqueline Suskin
Jacqueline was a resident at Have Company in 2015 and it has been the pleasure of a lifetime to share life together these past eight years in so many different forms. It feels so special to bring you this episode!
