In today's episode, I have the pleasure of speaking with my dear friend and colleague Wilka Roig. Wilka and I met about five years ago, and the synchronicities of our connection continue inspire awe in me:) I am grateful to get a chance to share this conversation with you - it's so profound and explores our relationship with dreams, endings, the lunar cycle, eclipses, and redefining grief.
Wilka is a transpersonal psychologist, she is a death doula, a grief counselor, a dream worker, an educator facilitator and an artist in many mediums. She's the president of the Foundation in Central Mexico for the work of Elisabeth Kubler Ross (EKR México Centro) as well as an end of life doula and instructor and the co-chair of the BIPOC Advisory Council for the International End of Life Doula Association, or INELDA. Wilka is a coordinator for curriculum and faculty for the Institute of International Studies with the Institute for the Study of Birth, Breath and Death. And she's also been a part of reviving green burial practices in Mexico.
I hope you enjoy this conversation and that it sparks your own curiosity about your relationship with endings and beginnings!
