EP #17: Holding Space for Healing ~ The Root of Your Trauma can Show Up in Unexpected Ways

On this episode of “Active Allyship…it’s more than a #hashtag!” …
On the “Did you Know?” segment, Sunni and Lisa share two great
news articles related to the voter process!  According to
Good Black News - NBA Legend Michael Jordan and his Jordan Brand
Donate $2.5 Million to Combat Black Voter Suppression and The
NAACP and LeBron Jame’s “More Than A Vote” Initiative Attracts
10,000 Volunteer Poll Works. We all know that there’s voter
suppression, in addition to voter suppression, we are in the
midst of a pandemic where people are feeling unsafe and
vulnerable.  





Our guest Vanessa Codorniu shares her marination as a Latinx
person in this country.  She shares the pain, the process,
the nurturing, the healing and the wisdom of her journey. 
Love is Love and that is made clear when she shares the story of
her father’s unexpected interaction on a New York subway train.
What an amazing journey and life changing story! 





Vanessa is called The Urban Priestess, who is a bilingual
educator and wellness activist. She is an acclaimed Latinx
teacher of intuition and clinical hypnosis, with over 27 years of
experience and more than 10,000 individual sessions. 
Vanessa shares her heritage discussing an array of sensitive
topics. Who knew that Sunni’s vulnerability would show up the way
it did?  Not even Sunni excepted the raw emotions to present
during the taping.  You already know you’re going to have to
listen.  What things are you carrying? Just now, Erykah
Badu’s “Bag Lady” came to mind. Vanessa shares her
vulnerabilities as a Healer and learning to protect herself as an
immigrant and BIPOC from those with misconceptions based on
programming and stereotypical beliefs.  We realize that
people are dealing with unprecedented levels of grief, collective
trauma and fear of the unknown at the moment.  Are you
interested in healing your trauma? Do you believe in alternative
healing?  Have you considered alternative healing?  How
about ancestral healing?  The root of your trauma can be
hard to pinpoint, which means it’s easier to be triggered or
rekindled.  You’ve got to listen to this show, especially if
you’re interested in individual and collective healing.  Be
