kindred connections

A space for the unfiltered, real and sometimes messy experience of living in a body that doesn’t always cooperate, in a world that doesn’t always understand you —  all during a time of great uncertainty and change. 

 

The pieces are mostly written from a personal perspective, with the occasional 'clinical pearl' perspective woven in. Written with no shame, no performance, just honest stories from someone who gets it, and who —  despite the dumpster fire we are living in —  still believes we can build a better future, together... well, on most days anyway. ;)

I stand with these communities:

Inclusive image of the Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander, LGBTQIA+, Trans, Non-Binary and Palestinian flags.

I deeply value inclusion & accessibility, and am committed to showing up for those values in practical and emotional ways, in both a personal and professional capacity.

I, Aliesha Bannister, acknowledge that I live and work on the lands of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation — sacred Country that continues to offer healing, vision, grounding, and inspiration. I honour the Wurundjeri people as the Traditional Custodians of this land, and pay deep respect to their Elders — past and present — as well as all knowledge holders. 

 

For over 65,000 years, Aboriginal peoples have cared for these lands, waterways, and skies through deep, reciprocal relationship. This connection was never ceded. I stand with First Nations peoples in their ongoing fight for justice, recognition, and sovereignty. I am guided and inspired by the wisdom, culture, and spirit that continues to flow through Country, and I long for a future where this knowledge is not only respected, but re-centered in the collective life of this place. 

 

Always was, always will be — Aboriginal land.
