Gentle Warrior

My guest this week is South African born Janine Schuller - a Sangoma (African Medicine Women) & Prophet, initiated traditionally in the townships of Cape Town, by both the Zulu and Xhosa Tribes.Although she lives in Ireland with her Irish husband, she returns to the townships most years to meet her Tata (African Father) and enter into ceremony with her Ancestors.Janine shares how She was called to be a Sangoma and the ceremonies that took place in the townships were not always welcoming, but She formed a new family and tribe. She also shares her personal challenges through miscarriages and how accepting She would not be a Mother has brought her peace in her life now. Janine is most passionate about helping people build a relationship with themselves (to trust their intuition); their Ancestors (to know where their messages are coming from and trust them) and with others (to be of service in their own unique way).  She shares her own experiences in hope that those listening find their own inner Gentle Warrior and lead their own way.Janine is qualified as a Creative Mindfulness Kids Practitioner, has a Major Award in Early Childhood and Care Education and is currently upgrading her Special Needs Assistance training.  Although she isn’t 100% sure where this training is taking her and the additional training she may be taking on, she is confident she is stepping firmly into an Advocator Role.Find out more about her work and offerings through her website https://www.yourgentlewarrior.com This episode is in association with https://www.instagram.com/retreats_ireland/If you would like to sponsor an episode of this podcast or find out more about Sharon's upcoming evens, please go to https://www.sharonfitzmauricemindfulness.com This is a public episode.
