Description

We are made up of those who came before us, and the story of our lineage (which doesn’t have to be blood relatives) may hold clues for how we want to show up. Ancestral work can be a way to understand our own voices and can be healing for us and our leadership, helping us show up as fuller, more rooted versions of ourselves. 

For quiet leaders, ancestral work can create a pathway back to our own power, to feel safe to be ourselves in ways we haven’t before, to take up more space and to speak quietly but clearly. 

In episode 206 of Quiet Messenger, I’ll help you investigate the themes in your own lineage, what you hold carried down from your ancestors, what patterns you’re here to shift.

In this episode, I talk about…

  • How ancestral connection helps quiet leaders find the courage to speak up
  • Stickier aspects like cultural appropriation and the erasure that came with "white"ness 
  • What it means for those of European ancestry to connect back to their indigeneity 
  • Ancestral connection as a spiritual practice & my rituals to connect with ancestors 
  • How to draw on the strength of your ancestors and questions to take you deeper, wherever you’re at in your journey
