Wild & Holy
A Writing Workshop
Writing the Things That Cannot Be Resolved
Register NowIntroduction
▾
We are living in a time that asks us to carry grief and joy, outrage and tenderness, beauty and devastation, exhaustion and hope — all at once.
Wild & Holy is an invitation to write from these places of paradox. Not to explain them. Not to resolve them. But to dwell within them.
Through poetry, music, guided writing, and shared reflection, we will explore the contradictions we carry, honoring both the wildness that keeps us alive and the holiness that helps us remain present.
About the Facilitator
▾
Haneen Sabbah is a Palestinian storyteller, singer, and facilitator who has spent her life learning to hold contradiction without flinching from it — grief beside joy, exile beside home, rupture beside repair. Her writing and facilitation work moves between mourning and celebration, protest and prayer, always circling back to one belief: that healing doesn't require us to resolve what we carry, only to make room for it. She brings that same spirit into every space she holds — inviting people to write, sing, and sit with what is unresolved in their own lives, together.
Workshop Goals
▾
We won't be asked to choose one side. We'll write from the place where both are true.
