Platica Y Poetics Ep.1 w/ Carmen Calatayud

Our first Platica is a cuento about how poetics has been a lifeline for Carmen, nourishing her innate ability to bring the healing art of storytelling to life through poetry. As both a psychotherapist and poet, Carmen explores the transformative power of healing through words.
In this conversation, we dive into her surreal poetic memoir, “This Tangled Body,” as she navigates themes of family history, war, migration, and the raw complexities of relationships.
Through lyrical language, Carmen searches for ways to rescue a body that has known pain, addiction, and generational trauma.
