Welcome to Episode 8 of the Sori Podcast. I am honored to introduce my guest on the podcast, Pulxaneeks, who is from the Eagle Clan of the Xanuksiala First Nation. She is the Founder / Facilitator / Visionary & Consultant of “Heart to Heart - Indigenous Relationship Consultation” where she calls upon her lived Indigenous experience to not only offer insight and understanding but also to enable us to discover what it means to come back into right relationship with our Indigenous Hosts & our own Ancestry.

Pulxaneeks inspires the connection to our deep ancestral heritage and the heartbeat of Mother Earth to enable us to hear the complexity of the indigenous story between us. How can we recognize the impact of colonialisation and collective injury and have the courage to stay with the discomfort so we can begin to build cultural safety and trust? What are the many faces of apology that are needed to be considered and how can we can take responsibility and action in this long road towards forgiveness?

In this episode I have the privilege of talking with Ari Vanderschoot, an artist, ocean conservationist and activist whose life is dedicated to safeguarding the wellbeing of the ocean and living sustainably in community. I had the pleasure of meeting Ari on her sailing boat a number of years ago where I had the most profound experience meeting whales off the coast of Maui. In this conversation we consider what does apology and forgiveness even mean when we consider the escalating climate crisis. 

Ari inspires us to live from the heart and take action and response-ability in caring for the incredible planet that we are entrusted with.

Jody shares perspectives on Ho’oponopono from her studies with Kahuna Abraham Kawai'i. She shares a pathway to restore balance and harmony to our inner world as we learn to forgive, accept and love our ‘inner ohana’ (family).

In this episode I had the joy of traveling through Aotearoa, New Zealand, the land of the long white cloud with my dear friend Rachael Lowe. A journey of breathtaking beauty and deep conversations about our ancestry and in what way ancestral forgiveness is needed personally and collectively. 

We had the privilege and honor of meeting Philip Mutu, a Maori elder in the village of Whakarewarewa in Rotorua. Philip took us to  sacred Maori land by the weeping waters at the foot of the volcano Mount Tarawera where his grandfather was living when it erupted in 1886. We had a profound conversation about ancestry, faith, love and forgiveness.

In this episode I have the pleasure of talking with Metta Legita, an Indonesian musician, composer and educator based in Cambodia. Our collaboration through the pandemic resulted in the development of meditation songwriting as a process to make sense of our experiences of the global crisis. Metta shares her personal journey of apology and forgiveness and the impact of songwriting to carry her and others through challenging times.

I also re-connect with my dear friend and TV presenter, Finn Aberdein. We touch base about my journey so far and specifically discuss moral injury, and, how this can impact not only our core beliefs but also the heart and soul of an organization.
