In today’s episode, we engage in a thought-provoking conversation with Laura Rios, co-founder and visionary behind De Corazón Circles, a multifaceted creative consulting firm. Laura, a wife, mami, tia, and madrina, is deeply committed to healing intergenerational and colonial trauma through Matriarchal Leadership, Cultural Resilience, and the preservation of Folklife. Her work fosters solidarity and nurtures Afro-Indigenous futures through resistance, radical love, and a profound sense of belonging. We delve into how individuals can reconnect with their ancestral roots—whether through tradition or the rediscovery of lost connections—and explore how healing from the roots allows one to grow stronger, like a tree offering shade to future generations.
