If you are anyone who is on a healing journey or has a life coach or even in therapy, I am sure you have heard any of these sentences:
The body knows, the body remembers, the body keeps scores, It's in the body or feel it in the body, feel into the body... and many more. Well, it's because the body truly is a gift we have, it is indeed our temple and it is vessel to truth, healing and wellbeing if only we are to listen and believe the body.

In this episode I am in conversation with Dr. Baba Buntu on one of the most complicated challenges in the black family structure, the challenge of Fatherlessness.

So complex is this challenge that it has many lays across all spheres of society, it is political, economic, social, it is spiritual.
Dr. Buntu and I approach this conversation with great humility knowing that one conversation will not bring about any solution – but rather it is an attempt and our contribution towards the solutions.
It is one of the most important conversations yet

212. Our Money Wounds and Stories - Part1
Sunday Apr 23, 2023
Sunday Apr 23, 2023
In this Episode I am in conversation with Ahaumna AhMaYah on our (my) money wounds and story. This is perhaps the most personal conversation I have ever had on the podcast. It was also the most healing and freeing in ways I cannot explain just yet. The conversation is about my deepest wound which is money, if you have been listening to the podcast for a while you know of my strange relationship with money.
In this part 1 of the conversation, we focus on my money story and the wound thereof. I share the story of losing everything I ever created at a tender age of 31 when I went bankrupt. Ahaumna helps me unpack and process that deep wound and helps me come into some epiphanies and aha moments. She makes me see what I could not see all these years.
We go one to cover other themes of money in the world, how the spirit of money is evolving and changing simultaneously with Mother Earth. We talk about the current system of money being backed by Debt and Pain of others and that money wants to be used differently for the betterment of all, and a lot more.
It was a necessary conversation that was deeply healing for me.
