Abstract: This short paper explores the transformative potential of collective autoethnographies. We describe unstructured online dialogues (message groups and video meetings) functioning as primary data and show how they afford a dialogical space for exploring vulnerability and positionality among highly skilled immigrants. We specifically focus on the facilitation of theorization and transformation through (1) multimodality, allowing for openness and empathy; (2) active listening, enabling trust and healing; and (3) theorization, reshaping views on privileges.
