I Am Afi G: What We Carry
I Am Afi G: What We Carry is a podcast about the things passed down through blood, silence, and survival — and what it takes to transform them.
Hosted by Coach Afi G, Spiritual Life Coach and Ancestral Healing Practitioner, each episode moves through the intersections of intergenerational trauma, emotional shadow work, ancestral healing, and lineage narrative — drawing from Afro-Diasporic spiritual traditions, epigenetics, and over time 30 years of healing practice.
This is a space for Black, Afro-Diasporic, and Latino/Latine communities — and for anyone who has ever felt the weight of what their family couldn't say out loud. Whether you're beginning your healing journey or deepening a practice you've carried for years, you'll find here what most spaces don't offer: a conversation that honors both your wounds and your lineage with equal reverence.
What your ancestors couldn't finish — you can.
