Radical Faith: I'm Going to Be Okay with Alicia M. Rodriguez

Alicia Rodriguez's sacred gut punch came in waves. First: an electrical charge when she met Napo, a sixth-generation shaman in Ecuador, recognizing him as the figure from a dream decades earlier. She uprooted everything to build a healing retreat center with him. Second punch: he turned dark, aggressive, and dangerous. Third: fleeing with only a backpack and her dog, her life on the line. The final blow that became salvation: landing in Portugal with nothing, starting over in a new country. Each gut punch was a sacred intervention, forcing her to trust herself completely — wisdom discerned from the stillness.
