We are super grateful to have sharing her perspective in this episode the beautiful and wise Choiwee Moon, @mamachowceo (IG), Holistic Wellness Practitioner. With her background in Education working with young children and youth in mental health her much experienced and considered perspectives in this korero are very insightful and immersive. With her deep grasp of energies working alongside men and women in the mental health space she navigates conversations and work related experiences with regards to  trauma, healing, mental health and suicide prevention with expertise. As a practitioner she is committed to  creating safe and  judgment free, spaces and identifying a great need for restructuring of societal expectations and support, particularly for our young boys and men.

We navigate a lot in this particular korero. Whilst the subject header is “Mother Wound” the korero took us on such a journey. We traverse a range of topics all interwoven into the fabric that is healing and the impact of the Mother Wound on Tane and Wahine alike. Some of the areas we delve into include:

Wellbeing and making really important decisions

Taking steps to heal self

Masculine and Feminine energies for both Tane and Wahine

Presence, Emotional Availability and Forgiveness

Wounded Masculine and Alchemising Anger.

Creating Healthy Boundaries

Inner Child wounds

Open hearted connection and non-attachment

“One of the coolest parts about this entire korero for me (Jazzy) is that I have a massive learning in the moment, as i share insights from the death of my mother. Clearly my Unconscious Mind was ready for this memory to be presented and for me to acknowledge and learn this beautiful lesson all about Feminine energy! Clearly I need it! And maybe you do too?!” - @navigatingnative

The intention of this korero is to shine light on the difficult decisions we often have to face along our journey, the different events that happen along our pathway and the responsibilities we each have for our own healing. In addition to speaking to the “Mother Wound” how this impacts us and the role that vulnerability plays in our healing.

Awareness of Self is central to understanding how to navigate in Te Ao (The World). Without awareness of the key things about ourselves we can lose our way and be swept up in unconscious, non-serving, repeated patterns.

Being present and having discernment in our lives helps us to better traverse the various paths and obstacles life may present to us.

Self Awareness sets the foundation for the framework that is our Whare (Home) and the way in which we best live.

Join Kayla and I as we navigate the world of why we believe Self-Awareness is important. You’ll hear us talk about the lives we were unaware we were creating, our defining moments AKA the visions we had if we chose to stay on the path we were on, as well as what we did to change our reality. We share bits about what we do in the world now.

Other topics discussed in this episode:
