  • In this episode, we reflect respectfully and humbly on Grandma Toon’s influence on my understanding of community, spirituality, and family: exercising love as a practice, investing in the transformation and growth of community members, applying the concept of family-first, being congruent and real, and holding space for inner wisdom (prayer, somatic practices, quietness).
