Monique Ruffin is a celebration of living. She is one of those people that folks say has “A beautiful soul”. And I completely understand why. Monique grew up in the neighborhood of Watts in Los Angeles. Yes, that Watts. It's where Sanford And Sons was set, and was where Denzel Washington and Ethan Hawke duke it out in Training Day. That neighborhood is not known for many empowering things, but it's where Monique called home. Growing up in an area impacted by crack, with parents in and out of jail, many wouldn't have been surprised if Monique failed to transcend her environment. But she did, and in a big way. Monique is a mother, writer, creator, coach, radio host and group facilitator. But most of all she's an example of what it looks like to live with heart, authenticity, courage, vulnerability and realness. In our conversation, Monique and I talk about her childhood, the lessons she's learned as a mother, and how we can all grow beyond our circumstances.

"Moon Mama" Monique Ruffin is Arlia's guest today. She describes her own journey to astrology, the personal implications of our birth charts, and the challenges we are all facing right now. Monique went to live with her grandma in Watts, CA when she was just three years old.  By the time she was thirty, she had experienced the death of both her parents and all of her grandparents. She wanted to do nothing but die from all the trauma she was carrying in her body. She started asking questions of her higher self. She stopped asking “Why me?” and began to ask the universe for the strength and the power to meet the call of the obstacles that lay before her. She stopped resisting and began surrendering to a power within her that desired solutions over escape routes. Monique is an Astrology coach, feminine power coach, MMS facilitator at Progressive Love Academy. She Studied Spiritual Psychology at University of Santa Monica and Political science at Howard University and studied with spiritual leaders. But nothing has prepared her to support others in their healing work the way her life experiences have. Monique is naturally gifted with astrology and uses natal chart readings as well as ritual, crystal grids, reiki healing, talk therapy and lots of personal reflection to serve her clients. Monique says, “Every difficulty and obstacle is an invitation to know what you're truly made of and who you really are, if you're willing to show up.” Topics in this episode: How she came to astrology The movement from victim to creator The Hero's Journey for People of Color The role of the Moon in our lives Miracles are normal Understanding your Value The awakening of our society to the systems to be dismantled Connect with Monique: Website Instagram The Women's Sanctuary Podcast is hosted by Arlia Hoffman.

To hold onto negative beliefs and feelings toward our parents is to be at war with ourselves * The science of how the experiences of our mothers are transmitted through our cells into multiple generations * The judgements we formed about our mothers become the judgements we make about all women * The judgments we formed about our fathers become the judgements we make about all men * The practicality of forgiveness as a gateway to FREEDOM * What we believe about our mother is what we believe about god * When we can identify what we believe, we can shift it * What we believe about our mothers is intrinsically linked to the type of mothers we are, the relationships we have with other women, and the relationships we have with our own bodies * To heal the relationship we have with the archetype of the Mother at the level of the heart and soul, we will heal the relationship we have to one another, to the Earth, and to life itself * Our cultural awakening to our intrinsic power as creative beings * Healing the shame we carry around the wrongs of our ancestors and choosing to forgive them   CONNECT WITH MONIQUE Email Monique at moniquecruffin@gmail.com Finding Our Mothers: Healing the Original Wound Course Finding Our Fathers Course Moon Manifestation Astrology Intensive   Follow IN{HABIT} Podcast on Facebook, thru my Instagram!

Monique Ruffin and Mark Husson are the special guests joining Life Coach Ade for ENCORE "Healing the Past in the Present: Feel, Deal and Heal" on the Ask Life Coach Ade Radio Show.  The process of healing can take years, months, weeks or a moment. How long it takes is not as important as much as your willingness to heal. Are you willing to heal now? Are you willing to set your future free?!?! Say YES to the “gift” of the present moment and be made whole.

Raised in Los Angeles by her grandmother, Ruffin was the child of drug-addicted, often imprisoned parents. This challenge, along with her grandmother’s life-saving love and guidance, serve as her activism’s foundation and inspiration. Monique received her BA in political science from Howard University and a master’s degree in spiritual psychology from the University of Santa Monica.  Mark S. Husson is a man with a lifelong interest in the inner workings of the mind. Mark received his undergraduate degree in psychology and went on to receive his master's in counseling from West Virginia University. He is the co-founder of The Twelfth House, which developed a reputation not only for its psychological approach to astrology.

Monique Ruffin, Cazembe Abena, Charly Palmer and Celeste Morgan are the special guests joining Life Coach Ade on the Ask Life Coach Ade Radio Show. With the sensational rise of Lupita Nyong’o, we have been privy to many conversations that have erupted about beauty, the role of women of African descent in society, and questions about how African American men and women are currently relating to each other publicly and personally on this matter. Some of these conversations are revealing personal and collective past pains and hurts experienced by both women and men of color. Healing is seeking to be acknowledged between black men and women, but that can only start when we focus on healing from the neck down.  Please join us for a heart centered conversation with Life Coach Ade  on the Ask Life Coach Ade Radio Show with the hopes of putting more clarity on this matter and to create a space for a healing conversation.   Call in 347 426 3346 or post your questions on "Ask Life Coach Ade Radio Show" fan  (LIKE) page on Facebook. Monique Ruffin is an Author, activist, life coach, and mother. Charly (Carlos) Palmer is an award-winning artist.   Cazembe Abena is a Certified Reiki Master Teacher & Energy Medicine Practitioner, Holistic Consultant, Channeler, and Initiatory Guide.
