Join me for part two of my road trip to Miami. In this episode, I am sharing my profound experience of being with, learning with and caring for 3 incredible Wisdom Keepers, indigenous Grandmothers and now family.
I thought I would be attending a spiritual workshop featuring Moetu Taiha, a grandmother and spiritual healer from New Zealand, and Flordemayo, a Mayan elder from Nicaragua, along with her older sister, Esperanza..who, at 89 years old, is a powerful healer in her own right.
You will hear about the deep impact the grandmothers' teachings have had on my life and hear why I wanted to document their events and photograph them as a tribute to their wisdom.
I share my moving experience accompanying them to the land of the Seminole nation, who have a pre-existing relationship with Maori people, who knew? and witnessing their participation in a beautiful welcoming ceremony with the grandmothers.
I go deep into my involvement in serving and caring for the grandmothers for the week, and the profound lessons she learned from their teachings and wisdom.
Lastly you’ll hear my personal reflections on feeling deeply loved and cared for by the elders, as well as the impact of witnessing the love and care given to Flordemayo by her sister.
The 5 main takeaways for you from this conversation:
- Embracing Synchronicity: My experience of finding out about a workshop featuring her beloved elder, grandmother Flor de Mayo, in Miami emphasizes the importance of recognizing and embracing moments of synchronicity in life.
- Profound Interactions: Reflecting on my experiences with the grandmothers and my nephew, I emphasize the impact of genuine, heartfelt interactions and the potential for deep connections with strangers.
- Importance of Elder Wisdom: my journey with the grandmothers underscores the significance of seeking wisdom from elders and spiritual healers, and the impact their teachings can have on personal growth and transformation.
- Healing and Love: My insights on feeling deeply loved and cared for, contrasting her experience with strained family relationships, highlight the power of healing and the nurturing bonds that can exist between individuals.
- Heartfelt Connections: I encourage listeners to open up to their communities, acknowledge each other as human beings, and engage in heart-to-heart and soul-to-soul interactions to create more meaningful and authentic connections in their lives.
Thank you for listening, and I can't wait to share this insightful and inspiring journey with you!
