On todays episode, Dr Danielle Arabena yarns to Arly Mehan, The Love Warrior Celebrant and Death Doula, about her PhD in EcoAcoustics. We also delve into how Arly helps others use ceremony as a profound way of connecting to Kin in the seen and the unseen.
Arly is a Birrbay and Dunghutti ceremony creatress living and working on Country near Guruk, what is now known as Port Macquarie, NSW, Australia. Arly is currently working within the wedding and funeral industries in an educaring approach to contribute to decolonising, bringing meaning and authentically honour sacred life moents. Arly speaks about both the seen and unseen, the human and the beyond-human with the same respect. Currently studying a PhD, Arly attends to this work because of kin and cultural responsibilities, disrupting mainstream narratives about Koala conservation. Arly collaborates with sound agency and Country agency to ngarra (listen, learn, remember and know) with Country and encourages others to translate sounds to calls for action.
