WF Osunyoyin (& Chelsea): Ifa Is The Wisdom, Ifa Is The Word, Ifa Is Life

What this episode covers

In this episode, Amy sits down for a delightful conversation with Godmother and Goddaughter, Osunyoyin and Chelsea! Osunyoyin aka Iya Linda is an Apetibi, Iyanifa and Iyalorisha in the Yoruba religion and has been initiated into Ifa for 30 years. She was initiated into Ifa, Obatala, Osun and other Orisas in Nigeria in the 90’s. She has recently formed an Ile called Gbogbo (pronounced bogbo) Orisa, which means All Orisa. As the Iya of GboGbo Orisa, Iya Linda provides a safe and confidential space for people on their spiritual journey through Ifa and emphasizes the importance of family and community. She also helps people solve life and spiritual issues by using Ifa divination and facilitates connections between Yoruba high priests in Nigeria, known as Babalowos/Babalorisas, to people in need of guidance. She believes that getting to know yourself spiritually is just as important as getting to know yourself in the physical realm so it's best not to go on that journey alone. When Iya Linda is not being a godmother and Ifa priestess, you can find her enjoying karaoke, cooking, or spending time with family and friends. Contact Osunyoyin at [email protected]
