In this episode, I connect with a deep soul about the hardship and the ups and downs of facing the hard truths of disconnecting with our narcissistic parents.
Brisa is a first-generation detribalized Xicana, intuitive healer, and trauma-informed somatic experiencing practitioner. She is also a chef, farmer, and student of curandismo. She is also strongly connected to her ancestors and guides who teach her the medicine for her work.
We go in-depth about our own living experiences with this process and all the guilt, shame, betrayal, and isolation associated with licking these wounds ourselves. Brisa also has a formal educational background in psychology focusing on community, the immigrant experience, and mental illness.
During this conversation, we share some of our wisdom through this lived experience in decolonizing our medicine and our truth!
You can find more of her work @yolotlholistic on Instagram.
Remember to be gentle with yourself going through this process as the ebbs and flows of weaving your own inner wisdom takes time, patience and compassion for oneself!
