Visionary Jewels PodcastSelf-Discovery is Self-Care with Kristin Hood RicondoSelf-Discovery was arguably one of the hardest parts of my healing journey because I was living through an identity that wasn't wholly my own. When I began my journey it required me to radically choose myself and in doing so I had to relinquish the parts of me I thought I knew and unlearn, rebirth, and rediscover who I was authentically. The process of self-discovery was for me a love letter to myself and a daily practice of self-care and self-nourishment. Through this practice I was able to restore the power that dwelled within me and develop...

Visionary Jewels PodcastHealing from Within with Crystal Wright AdamsAs we journey through our healing a lot of us find ourselves uncovering that a lot of our behaviors, responses, and negative patterns are survival or coping mechanisms we created from a place of trauma in our childhood age. We find ourselves still reacting, responding, and engaging in childlike behaviors spurned out of childhood trauma manifesting in our adult relationships with ourselves and others today. We’ve played out these behaviors so often they metastasize into every aspect of our lives that it becomes our identity. No longer able to recognize yourself as who you were prior to...

Visionary Jewels PodcastWho Told You You Weren't Worthy with KimAs women we often find ourselves in a silent battle over ideas of self-worth. Often operating in spaces in both our personal and professional lives where we feel as though we are imposter. Unworthy of taking up space in a particular landscape? Why is that? There are a multitude of reasons ranging from patriarchal societal norms bred out of historical traditions, roles, customs that have yet to be reformed to invite women into the experience that is life. We’ve known that narrative to be true but what they don’t tell you or what we as women...

Visionary Jewels PodcastReframe Your HealingWelcome back, Happy first week of a new month. Happy Black History Month! On today’s episode of the podcast I had, and still have every intention to discuss the topic of healing.

I still to intend to talk about that but I’ll be going about it in a way that was unexpected and not quite what I planned. Hopefully the what I provide today paints a vivid picture on the necessity of healing and changing our mind around what it means...

Visionary Jewels PodcastSolace In Solitude Reveals TruthIn the first episode, I talked about a vision I received recently that is the vision that is Visionary Jewels. In this episode, I want to talk about the preparation I had to go through to be able to receive that vision. That preparation didn’t come overnight. It wasn’t all sunshine and roses, it took years, sometimes it was painful, and in the end magnificent. It was necessary and at times remains a practice of mine to continue on the path of clarity. What am I saying when I say spiritual solitude? For me it is t...

Visionary Jewels PodcastThere's Levels to This: Intersectionality with Ciera YoungWe as women all face unique experiences in our lives that cause us to go through many challenging and sometimes traumatic ebb’s and flows. Unfortunately, without we as a society doing the important work of healing and reckoning with the systemically ingrained transgressions and traumas that plague us we as a society fail to heal. We disparage the chance for women to craft and curate their own identities unbeholden to societal expectations and norms. I want to continue the conversation on the topic identity as we did last time on episode 2. On today's episode I will app...

Visionary Jewels PodcastWhose Identity is it Anyways?On this episode I'm going to give it to ya'll straight, no chaser! We are going to dive into the topic of identity as it's defined by normative societal patriarchal gender norms. The main thesis being, that I feel women inherently come into their womanhood lost because our views and our worth are shaped by societal and patriarchal norms from the very start. Our identity is warped before it can even begin to mature into its authenticity. Our value is determined by whether we attain the roles the patriarchal society would like us to accept. This conditioning goes beyond t...
