Daniel Foor, Ph.D is the author of Ancestral Medicine: Rituals for Personal + Family Healing. He is a ritualist and educator focused on helping others reclaim their innate capacity to relate with their ancestors and with the greater web of other-than-human kin. Today, we talk about cultural repair work, intergenerational accountability and how to become what he calls a “regular size person” through both accepting the gifts and the debts of our ancestry.

This special episode is second (and final) look back over the first year of the podcast; and we're bringing you clips and highlights from both guest conversations and solo episodes. My hope is that long-time listeners will get a refreshing review and that newcomers will get a digestive summary of where we've been.

- The perspective of plants + plant memory

- Centralizing ancestral relationships in both everyday life + ceremony

- The importance of connecting to your own medicine from your own land first

- The harm of appropriating and capitalizing on Native culture
