Living Brown, Living Well
Hola! Mi nombre es Andreina Zamudio, Licensed Clinical Social Worker in CA (94422) and energy master facilitator. Estos regalitos de ser quien soy hoy fueron dejados por mis antepasados y mis padres y siblings. I can understand first hand the challenges of growing up in a Mexican home with traditional practices and values (looking back, I think they're more trauma related). I can understand the challenges that rose from being raised by immigrant parents. From jumping in and out of religion (because of the disappointment with the Catholic church) to being the silly, chillona, sensible, berinchuda, callejera, la que les preocupava, youngest daughter.
Finding spirituality, reclaiming indigenous practices and wisdom of my Mexica ancestry, and building awareness of intergenerational trauma has been the greatest blessing in my life. The more I walk my life in this way, the more I grow to recognize the immense beauty that life has for us. From my personal experiences and appreciation of life came a deep soul drive to help mi gente find and begin to walk towards their own personal freedom. A personal freedom that embraces who you are, your cultura, tus raizes, y tu ser.
