Through deep conversations, insightful storytelling and mindful exploration, we will step back and reframe our perspective on the deepest challenges and questions life throws at us. How do we press pause, learn, grow and tap into our inner wisdom as humans?

Ancestral Healing: Ceremonies, Community & Grief with Dr. Enjolie Lafaurie & Maria Parra Cano
Grief doesn’t begin or end with us — it’s carried through our bloodlines, our stories, and our traditions.
In this episode of The Hanged Woman Podcast, host Julienne Irons closes the Grief Arc with a powerful conversation on ancestral grief and healing featuring Dr. Enjolie Lafaurie and Maria Del Carmen Parra Cano of the Cihuapactli Collective.
Together, they explore how grief is passed through generations and how we can begin to heal not only ourselves but our entire lineage. Through stories, ceremony, and community wisdom, this episode unpacks:
The roots of ancestral and generational trauma
How colonization and systemic oppression shape collective grief
The role of ritual, food, and medicine in reconnection
Practical ways to honor your ancestors and create healing practices in daily life
This conversation is both spiritual and grounded — an invitation to remember, reclaim, and restore.
