This is an Ask-A-Priest episode where Dodji asks the question “How to rebuild my self-belief and self-worth and realign myself to my true purpose in this universe? A bit of context, l feel disconnected from the real me; to who l am supposed to be. I feel a bit like a headless chicken running around aimlessly.”

This is an Ask-A-Priest episode where multiple questions were asked – Xela asks – ‘I am a practitioner of Buddhism (not Zen). I am a new listener recently discovered your podcast without any referral just did a search. I have been interested in the vodou, santeria, Candomble practices but haven’t done much about it outside of shopping at stores or watching YouTube videos. I am considered a senior by institutional definitions. Would I be considered too old to become involved in a “house” as you refer to it? Can one continue to practice their main religion and African/Cuban/Brazilian based religion (I am of African descent)? Is it considered a religion? Thank you and I am enjoying your podcast. ‘ Listen in and let’s start the conversation.

Welcome to the Orisha Wisdom Podcast Episode 75!

2021 was in my opinion one of those years that I am SO happy to let go. The year was a difficult one, and we needed a new year. Before we can go forward, we should take the time to sit and review what went right, and what we learned so that we can apply it to our lives. Here are some of the lessons learned from 2021. Listen in and hear… and do share some of yours. Am happy to hear/read about it.

Listen in for this answer.

Welcome to the Orisha Wisdom Podcast Episode 72! This is an Ask-A-Priest episode where three people asked related questions. Here are the submissions.

Lorna asks “How do you know if you are dealing with a true babalawo or a fraudulent one online?”

Latoya writes “A chief priest from West Africa that I have been working with the past few weeks for love work has been threatening my life and well being everytime I tell him that I cannot afford to keep sending him money. He is hounding me and using different numbers preventing me from blocking him. When I have blocked him he threatened me and said unblock me now or harm will come to you and your family. As soon as I unblocked him, the threats would stop. I told him that I did not wish to work with him anymore due to the loss of money causing me to be delinquent, and because the package he says he sent never arrived. As soon as I told him that, he said that I was going to die and he needed to do more work to prevent it for my sake. Even though I have already told him that basically went broke . I really don’t know what to do. I feel stupid and embarrassed. What should I do?”

Sal writes “I have been chatting with this babalawo in Nigeria and I sent him money for consultation. When I asked him if he got the money he asked me which money? No work done yet. I already blocked him but my concern now is that I sent my first name, mom’s first name and my full picture. I am really worried something bad can be done with the provided information.”

Listen in for this answer.

Welcome to the Orisha Wisdom Podcast Episode 68! I know that we are officially in the fall (at least here in the US), and we know that dressing in white is a BIG YES in our traditions. This episode focuses on the beginning of a chat about wearing white in the hot summer months. For many of us… heat is still a thing… and this is just the start of the conversation. When in doubt… wear white…. but the RIGHT whites. I’d love to hear from you. What other tidbits would you like to add?
