ep. #26 
Ashley talks with Dr. Mia Hetenyi, a writer, ceremonialist, and grief doula. 
Their conversation weaves through many topics, with a continued thread of the power of the wild world to support our grief and lives. 

Topics we touch on :

• * Spring happenings in the landscapes we live with. The spring energy of waking up, growing, and shifting *
• *Our sense of safety impacting how open we are to tuning into eros and aliveness in land
• *Ancestral connection to specific landscapes*
• *How nature can help us recalibrate our worthiness and belonging* 
• *"Trauma doesn't exist in nature", grief and hard experiences move through the animal body*
• *Systemic racism and patriarchy impacting access to the wild*
• *The importance of children building relationships with the wild*  
• *Ways that Hungarian culture honors death*
• *Redwood trees supporting Mia's capacity to get sober and grieve* 
• *Addiction as a spiritual illness*
• *Feeling safe and held by sprit/nature/other as the groundwork for moving big feelings*
• *Cultural patterns of emotional suppression impacting our grief* 
• *Building relationship to the divine mother, and healing the mother wound*
• *Meeting resistance to taking care of the body* 
• *Lack of cultural containers for grief and the large amounts of unprocessed grief in this culture*
• *Grief opening our connection to our true self, and clarifying our relationships*
