94. What Would My Ancestors Do?

More than ever, I find myself asking the question what would my ancestors do? During this time of chaos and challenge., it is imperative for us to learn how to connect with our ancestrial  wisdom. 

In today’s episode of the Yes, Mujer Build It podcast, I had the absolute honor of speaking with the brilliant Dr. Patty Ramirez. From the moment I first heard Dr. Patty speak, I knew I had to have her on the show. She has this incredible ability to blend the human experience with spiritual and ancestral wisdom, and our conversation left me with so many breakthroughs (and a full page of notes!). If you’re ready to explore how our ancestral roots can guide us toward healing and leadership, this episode is for you.

Dr. Patti and I talked about:

• Embracing Ancestral Wisdom: How Dr. Patty connects to her Mexican and Salvadorian lineages and uses genetic memory to guide her work.
• Healing and Leadership: The intersection of healing, social justice, and leadership from a place of ancestral knowledge.
• The Power of Community Care: Shifting from an individualistic mindset to collective healing practices.
• Rituals and Rites of Passage: The significance of ceremonies like quinceañeras and how they help maintain accountability and connection within the community.
• Regenerative Power of Fire: Understanding the spiritual and cultural meanings of fire, especially in the context of recent wildfires.
• Finding Your Role: How to listen to your intuition and discover your place within the community and larger ecosystem of healing and social change.
