As we move into the month of the mother and Mother’s Day, Trauma Informed Health and Wellness Coach Teya Valentina joins us to share about her journey helping her mother face the grief of aging and transitioning to a period of more dependence. She brings her knowledge as a dancing alchemist and from her time learning Indigenous pathways and older ways of knowing to teach us how we can bring spiritual and ancestral warmth to the tedious tasks of dealing with life insurance, real estate decisions, and other realities of transition and stress. Listen to hear how you can embrace the power and alchemy of the mother in order to be more loving, present, and non-reactive.
