“Well, the first experience with the Golden Willow Grief Retreat, the drumming journey was just so powerful in that what first came to me was the animal, the raven. And he led me through my family's home, the ones that passed.”
Imagine turning the deepest pain into a beacon of hope. That's what Dr. Regina Griego has done, and she shares her incredible journey on this episode of 'Kaleidoscope of Possibilities'. Hosted by Dr. Adriana Popescu, this conversation dives into the heart-wrenching yet inspiring story of how Regina transformed her family's tragedy into a mission for healing and change. Raised in New Mexico with Hispanic roots stretching back centuries, Regina's life took a drastic turn after a family trauma.
Instead of succumbing to despair, she found solace and strength in Native American traditions and rituals.

Regina also discusses her advocacy work, aiming to reform the mental health and justice systems, and sheds light on the Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) study.

Whether you're looking for ways to cope with your own stress or seeking inspiration from someone who's been through the fire and come out stronger, this episode offers a wealth of wisdom and practical advice.
