Mandy Martini Chihuailaf (webpage) came on the podcast. We spoke about indigenous wisdom, remembering, and why our western culture seems to be so stuck. Mandy works with indigenous approaches to moving through trauma and stress. Healing it by completing they cycle, just like any other wound. We also spoke of our current perdicament, remembering who you are and the different steps in teaching. The importance in her tradition to show and allow the one that is learning to then take their own steps. Even when it comes to hard lessons... this is a down to earth, wonderful conversation touching a place outside the dominant culture.
