<p>Today I’m sitting with Brooke Blurton, Noongar woman, youth worker, author, television figure, and powerful voice in queer and First Nations storytelling; for a conversation that steps beyond the public versions of her life.</p><p>Together we explore what the last year has looked like for Brooke, including a deep chapter of healing, self-connection, and learning how to hold herself with more softness. Brooke discusses what it means to begin a love affair with yourself, and the difference between inner work done quietly and the expectations placed on her publicly.</p><p>We look at inner child work, where Brooke shares how reconnecting with “little Brooke” has shaped her healing, and helped her create emotional safety as an adult.</p>
