In this podcast, Jarrah talks about how The Weekly Service is co-created. She explains a bit about the background of The Weekly Service: the intention & structure.

How we co-create Services

Inbal left her birth country of Israel twenty years ago - but being a migrant doesn't define her. A few years ago, Inbal decided to reconstruct family - and she wonders why people say "sorry about your divorce". Inbal has three boys who sometimes wear pants and sometimes wear dresses - and she feels pretty good about that. Inbal has braved child abuse - and she talks about it, simply. Because silence is oppressive, and we must turn on the lights.

Inbal is a member of The Weekly Service and a pretty inspiring human. With a strong will and a quiet smile on her face, she is stepping into her power and deconstructing unhelpful narratives. For herself and for others.

Please note there is a content warning for this story, which will mention sex and sexual child abuse.

Abe Nouk is a poet, a community educator, a mentor and a humble human being with an infectious sense of gratitude. 

In this podcast he talks about how he fled civil war in Sudan to come to Australia, and his journey to creativity and gratitude as a way of unravelling the numbness and trauma he grew up with.

Through his story, Abe encourages the audience to be open to both suffering and joy, and 'know your truth, keep your peace and speak your joy'. Abe also performs some of his of his spoken word poetry.
