For decades, Dr. Anita Sanchez, Nahuatl (Aztec/Toltec) and Mexican American, has committed herself to bridging indigenous wisdom and science for individual, business, and societal renewal. Drawing on her indigenous life experience and inner-city origins, Anita is a messenger of the Eagle Hoop Prophecy and gifts: forgiving the unforgiveable, healing, unity, and hope in action. A renowned consultant, trainer, coach, and speaker, she focuses on cultural transformation, leadership, diversity, inclusion, and belonging for Fortune 500 companies, education, and global non-profit organizations. Anita is a board member of Bioneers, a member of the Evolutionary Leaders and Transformational Leadership Council, an Elder Council member of The Wellbeing Project, Wisdom Weavers of the World, and the Fire Circle Earth.
Anita is a grandmother, Auntie, mother, and activist who holds a Ph.D. in organizational development. The author of seven books, including her international award-winning book, The Four Sacred Gifts: Indigenous Wisdom for Modern Times, and her upcoming book, Your Kaleidoscope Mind: Getting More Done by Letting More Go, Anita shares tools for transmuting trauma and pain into freedom and joy. Dr. Anita’s recent awards include 2022 Mogul’s Top 100 DEI Leaders, 2020 Conscious Company Media “World Changing Woman”, and the 2020 World Woman’s Foundation “Woman of the Hour”- #SheisMyHero, a campaign to inspire one million girls to live their dreams and leadership. Each year, Anita leads an annual journey into the sacred headwaters of the Amazon, continuing her personal mission of inspiring people to discover and trust their gifts so that they become a life-giving force to all, people and the earth.
In this podcast, our intention is to amplify Native voices that are essential, and largely muted. Indigenous leaders from every part of the world – the east, west, north, and south, share their life experiences, unleash their knowledge, wisdom and expand our perspective: to inspire us to dream a different dream. They light the way from a dream of separation and illusions to one of connections and relationships, highlighting the “original knowledge” that provides an essential path to ensuring our (and the planet’s) survival. When we allow ourselves to be quiet enough to listen to the wisdom from within, from Elders, and from Mother Earth, we give ourselves the opportunity to experience unity and oneness with all life.
