In this episode, we explore one of the fundamental themes of becoming a ‘Living Ancestor’: orienting our lives toward ‘completion’. This expresses itself in small daily moments, all the way to the larger arc of completing the ritual of one's entire life.
This is timely formy romantic landscape. How do i move within this relational rupture and repair in a way that ultimately leads to becoming an ancestor? The rightness of the question is beautifully shocking to me. In a culture going through a collective difficult adolescence, the pace and time of the ancestral grounds me to actions of truth, love and courage. Courage, because completion suggests that the risk to really live in vital robust aliveness was also taken.

Thank you for this, Ramon! I love the focus on closing loops and am looking forward to listening to the podcast on my walk this morning. ❤️
Thanks for sharing this story, it is moving. Yes closing the loops is important, and I know about the regrets of when not doing so.
