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.

Kultivating Kapwa: Decolonizing Parenthood Episode 3.17
"A Mother's Raising of Suns and the Healing of Patriarchal Wounds"
In this episode, we are joined by Maria Rubio. We discuss how she teaches her children how to show up for themselves, the most difficult parts of raising two men of color, raising children communicative of their needs and wants, navigating the world of dating and romance, and more.
Maria Rubio is a born and raised New Yorker by way of the Philippines, and a writer of poetry, fiction, non-fiction, and scripts for both stage and film. Her work explores the complicated, often antithetical and multi-layered nuances of the human experience through the lenses of queerness, decolonization, motherhood, trauma, and joy. She is also a registered nurse specializing in psychiatry, mental health, and sexual assault examination. She currently resides in Brooklyn.
