Pattie Gonia: How Nature Can Help Us Transcend Binaries

How can we see nature as an invitation to break down binary thinking?

From hiking in heels to building community through art, Pattie shares how drag became a pathway back to both nature and self. Diving into the deep connection between identity, self expression, and the natural world, this conversation is an invitation to reconnect with what is most alive within us—and to remember that healing ourselves might be part of how we heal the world.
