Cultural Kultivators - Nikbo
Manage episode 371228337 series 3478871
In this week’s episode, we are coming back to our roots with a past Kreative Growth Grantee, Nikbo. As a musician and songwriter, she shares her inspiration behind her songs such as “Grief is Love” and her highly anticipated, Breathe Underwater EP.
Nikbo also gives us practical ways to step into your power and potential as an artist, in what she calls “The Dig.” For our listener-creatives who might need more structure with their flow or are just beginning to invest more into your craft, this episode is for you.
In sharing about her experiences as a Filipinx Third Culture Kid, Nikbo shows us that we are not alone in experiencing the pushback that comes with spiritually and emotionally exploring our identities and gifts as multicultural, multi-hyphenated, and diversely talented Filipinx peoples.
And as we open up about our paths through decolonization as a deeply personal journey of exploration and oral histories, Nikbo explains the way she approaches healing in her music and her creative process with ears curiously planted in the ground to listen for what the natural world and our ‘plant-cestors’ are telling us.
