In this episode, Tarah and Liz spend a very nourishing almost 2 hours with Jenisa Washington! Jenisa is passionate about S.A.C.R.E.D. conversations, an enthusiast and consultant of Waldorf education, a mother, a change agent, a being of immense depth and grace, and a woman who is here to serve our world with her whole heart.
The ladies share deep conversation about many things:
-The healing of relationships with mothers and all beings at this time
-Growing up in an Ashram in southern California with swami Turiyasangitananda (Alice Coletrane)
-Questioning the religious home she was raised in, asking, what else is possible?
-Women all around Jenisa staying true to themselves
-These times and asking the question, how do we feel to serve now?
-Her Waldorf inspired alternative learning pod
-The main points of creating your own pod (Mission, resources (what you have to offer), who can offer what you can’t, and registering in your home state as an individual family)
-Doing whatever it is that you’re doing from a place of yourself, your love, and your values
-The intelligence of the Earth and us as nature
-Asking the question, what is education?
-Teachers as guides, not authorities
-The heart connection being how we create community, it’s simple, and yet the foundation for all we are and do as humans
Join us for an episode full of healing codes for all who are ready. At the very end, there’s a little funny for you all too!
Jenisa grew up in an Ashram Community in the presence of an enlightened spiritual teacher where the wisdom of East and West harmonized in a rich tapestry of vibrant living. Her International travel and exposure to rich cultural diversity nurtured her deep appreciation and value of others.
Years of partnering with educators in the holistic Waldorf educational model broadened her view of educational values for herself and her three children. Recently she created an alternative learning pod. This creative model that integrates heart, head and hands can eventually serve as an innovative model to expose children to humanities science in the younger years instead of later in college.
Her former non-profit, the Impact Circle, reached out to others and encouraged supporters to transcend personal pre-occupations and expand their heart through conscious giving. This model of creative philanthropy allows for the support and empowerment of others in need. She is on a quest to bring people together and build community in LOVE through S.A.C.R.E.D Conversations.
