Rickeeta Walley joins Brooke Collard to talk about her role as a cultural educator and researcher in this episode of Noongar Wellbeing.
They explore the the complexities of cultural safety, how to hold the space when teaching, and how the international attention of the Harry Styles moment was an opportunity for a much broader cultural engagement.
I did office 9 to 5. I would watch the clock for my break to just walk outside for 15 minutes and it just drained me. I only did it for six months and I was starting to actually feel quite low... I know some people are just so good at it and thrive and I can't. I love to be able to do something different every day. That's what keeps me full of energy.Rickeeta Walley
