S5: Episode 75 - The Medicine of Your Roots — A Conversation on Ancestral Healing with Denisse Silva

from Mindfully Disruptive · host Patricia Rundblade

Some conversations stop you in your tracks. This is one of them.Patricia sits down with Denise Silva — licensed therapist and founder of Ancestral Therapy — for an honest, intimate conversation about what it means to heal not just individually but through the lineage. Denise brings her own story of reconnecting with her El Salvadorian and Mexican roots, and what she found when she started doing the deeper work of rematriation and ancestral healing.What makes this conversation different is where it goes. Beyond therapy. Beyond the clinical. Into the places where food, land, storytelling, and traditional practice hold more medicine than any framework Western psychology has to offer.They talk about what migration and cultural erasure actually cost us — not just historically but in our bodies, our relationships, and our sense of belonging. They talk about the adaptations our parents made to survive and how we inherited those adaptations without a manual. And they talk about what it looks like to start breaking cycles — not through willpower but through reconnecting with the richness and wisdom that was always already there in our roots.If you've ever felt disconnected from where you came from — or quietly grieved something you can't quite name — this episode will put language to it.Connect with our Guest:Denisse Bianed Silva Escobar, LMFTLicensed Marriage & Family Therapist & Founder of Ancestral TherapyLinks: Website: https://www.ancestraltherapyhealing.com Instagram: @ancestraltherapy Tiktok: @ancestraltherapy Facebook: ancestraltherapyAncestral Healing Retreat in Oaxaca, Mexico on Oct 30th-Nov 3rd (Link: https://www.ancestraltherapyhealing.com/ancestralhealingretreats)If this episode stirred something true within you, share it with a fellow soul on the path.Leave a review to help amplify voices like yours — voices that disrupt, remember, and realign.Let’s stay in sacred conversation:Instagram: @patricia_rundbladeFacebook: Patricia RundbladeEmail: [email protected] Website: www.patriciarundblade.comCurious about being a guest on the show?Send me an email at [email protected] or DM me in socials. Let’s co-create something unforgettable.Thank you for tuning in to Mindfully Disruptive.Until next time, may your voice be rooted in truth and your presence be your power.
