Abstract
Life is a cosmology with changing scenes and intricate patterns. Over time, I have changed how I frame life's events. Bricolage autoethnography, which is descriptive and interpretive, is the basis of this paper. Within a critical look at the impact of my family of origin dynamics, ecological location & relevance of place, and the historical roots of our various social systems, including child’s services, justice and medicine, I aim to discover in what ways might meaning making and knowledge building approaches, applied to the examination of my life experiences, challenge and contribute to my current cosmology and social work practices? As a white-bodied person speaking from a social justice perspective and having spent most of my life in an indigenous context, I am decolonizing my worldview. Lessons learned through this writing inform and enable the connections I make with the clients that come through my door. |
