This is Kultivating Kapwa, hosted by Jana Lynne Umipig and Olivia Sawi. In our FIRST series, we sit down and ask Auntie Leny questions about her life, her work, decolonization, academia, ethnoautobiography, her relationship to nature, the land, and all living beings, and her views of the future. In our SECOND series, we have conversations with members of the community and explore how decolonization has manifested itself in their work, and how they cultivate kapwa in their own lives. In our THIRD series, we discuss decolonizing parenthood. We explore how decolonization shows up at home and in family, relational to our collective children. We delve into the intergenerational healing that exists in parenting the next generation, that ripples into our relationships to our elders and ancestors, our community, and all parts of our lives.

"Navigating Multiplicity and Mixed Identity in Pilipinx Diaspora"
In this episode, we are joined by Jillian Purugganan Werhowatz. We discuss how Jillian has learned to hold the complexity of having a mixed identity, the hardest things she has had to be in confrontation with, finding her place in community, her personal embodiment practices, and more.

Her mother is from Quezon City by way of Illocos Sur in the Philippines and her father is American, from Gary, Indiana. She currently resides on Monacan Territory, also known as Fredericksburg, Virginia, by way of Lenape Territory - New York City and Ojibwe Territory -Detroit.
