148. Rising Woman: From Trauma to Transformation w/ Sheleana Aiyana

In this episode of Bridging Connections, we welcome Sheleana Aiyana, founder of Rising Woman. Sheleana takes on her journey from tumultuous upbringing and traumatic relationships to her spiritual and healing path. Sheleana shares profound experiences from ayahuasca ceremonies and the importance of working through personal wounds to foster healthy relationships. We touch on the challenges men and women face in understanding each other's experiences and the significance of mutual vulnerability and support in partnerships. Sheleana dives into the need for self-healing and becoming 'the one' rather than seeking someone to complete us. 00:00 Introduction to Episode00:34 Welcome to Bridging Connections01:17 Rebranding the Podcast02:27 Introducing Sheleana04:40 Men and Relationship Anxiety06:59 Challenges in Male-Female Dynamics11:59 Founding Struggles of Rising Woman18:02 Spiritual Path vs. Healing Path24:31 Becoming the One29:18 Recognizing Red Flags in Relationships29:41 The Importance of Healing Work30:49 The 10-Year Relationship Journey34:40 Understanding Safety in Relationships35:49 Ayahuasca and Profound Healing42:15 Building Trust and Healing with Men52:43 Steps to Self-Discovery and Healing54:28 Final ThoughtsConnect with Sheleana:• Website: https://risingwoman.com/ / https://sheleanaaiyana.com/• Instagram: @sheleanaaiyanaConnect with Bryan & Tait:• Website: bryanreeves.com • Instagram: @bryanreevesinsight / @taitarend08
