In today's episode you get to meet a courageous and inspired soul, Brittney. She is a first generation Sri Lankan-American and it seems that perseverance is inscribed into her DNA. Now, a certified Nurse Midwife, Brittney takes us back to her childhood and adolescents to depict how stepping forward, even in the face of fear, is worth the risk. In our honest and uplifting conversation Brittney teaches us how forgiveness trumps grudges every single time and how paramount a supportive family and community can be. One of my favorite quotes from this episode that really resonated with me and was more of an Aha moment was when Brittney said “I don't hold grudges its too exhausting.” This episode is resonating for any woman who is exhausted from holding on to their past and is missing out on the here and NOW.

“I don't come in with an agenda, Spirit guides me…it's our higher power, it's for everyone. It doesn't matter what religion you are or aren/t, what color, what creed, what country what language what sex, what income level you are at–none of that matters. We all fall under that (Spirit/God/Source). All of us fall under it.” -Nichole Gregory-Marfo In today's episode Nichole and I dive deep into what it means to be a female Reiki healer using ancient energetic healing practices along with her divinely appointed gifts to provide alternative modalities to ultimately heal the body. Like Nichole, I believe many of our dis-eases are just that dis- ease in the body that needs to be released and attended to, usually on an emotional & spiritual level. And if you remember from episode one– Ianne Celeste Rivera of emotion being no other that energy in motion. Have I piqued your interest yet??? This episode is a great listen for any sister (or brother) who are ready and willing to release emotional baggage and wanting to explore holistic practices that aid you in your journey toward self healing. If you are new to the scene this is a great episode explaining, in the most simplistic forms, how energy healing works and if it is something you find your heart is calling you to. Like Nichole says, "This self work is for people of all ethnicities, religions, creeds, socio-economic status, etc." Interested in working with Nichole remotely or in person?

“If we (as women) can have different communities maybe it can be women who just HEAR us, women who are LIFE LONG LEARNERS who are always learning about a subject or a theme, something of interest where we can exchange ideas, and also a community of women who have a very strong FAITH. In whatever community of women you find yourselves in use them as your leverage, as your resource to help you, so you can be that women that you are supposed to be…with that calling, with that purpose, many times we can be on that path with the challenges that come about or those triggers that sometimes arise in our hearts with the flaws. It can stray us away from our path and having these different communities of women can help to guide us back onto our path.” -Anel Sanchez In episode 5 we are welcoming my dear friend Anel Sanchez. She is a radiant beam of light who has the gift to call together groups of people into community, into healing, education and empowerment.
