See the Invisible: Alejandra Wild Proano on Allowing Different Versions of Our Mothers and Ourselves; Seeing the Invisible; Protecting our Relationships; and Not Seeing Things in Black and White

Psychodynamic psychotherapist, Alejandra Wild Proano, talks about her Ecuadorian mom Desiree, and shares her inspiring story. Desiree went from the first female guide through the Amazon to finding herself widowed, with two small children, a foreigner in the US. Not giving up, she took classes and became a licensed psychotherapist. We learn many wonderful lessons from Desiree: to follow your path and never give up; to see the invisible - the spiritual, energetic, magical side of our existence; to protect our relationships by cherishing what’s important and letting go of small things; and to not see things in black and white. Alejandra and I also talk about many different phases in a woman’s life, and about allowing our mothers – and ourselves - to be different things at different times.  To learn more about Alejandra, please visit her website here.
