In the Intro:
Books to live by
Mitochondrial meanderings
The deep ancestry of all humans
In the interview:
The sound of the thing you are called by, and choosing a name with multilayered meaning
From outcast to leader
What being the daughter of an immigrant taught Yaya about communication & self expression
When you realize you're magic
Making the radical choice to express the way you really feel (that way, if people hate you, at least they hate the real you and not a false impression of who they assume you are) (also, that way, you attract the exact right people into your life)
Why dreams are real, our favorite dream teacher/writer, & how to work with your dreams (and nightmares)
Fear is never the truth
Magic, nature, and layers & layers of ancestral depth ("I feel like I have an intact ancestral identity in a way I didn't even three years ago")
Healing chronic pain
Sensory overload and how "there's a lot of undeniably magical things happening all the time, but life is loud"
Navigating the world as an empath/Highly Sensitive Person
A lot of chronic conditions are due to long term nervous system overwhelm
Herbal body oiling
How a radical diet change healed Yaya's endocrine (hormonal) and nervous system
It's good to do things that our ancestors would recognize from their time on earth
Shapeshifting mythical archetypes & fields of consciousness
Discovering your own relationship with the plant realm
