Hey griefsense familia! It's your host, Mimi Gonzalez, and today we're embarking on a transformative journey into the heart of death, grief, and rebirth. Settle in and join us as we explore these profound themes with the magical Adriana Michelle, known to many as @thedeathalchemist on Instagram. ๐ŸŒŒ

Adriana Michelle, a storyteller, cinephile, Bruja, and guide, has been helping people reshape their relationship to change, loss, and grief ever since the passings of her grandmother, mother, stepfather, and cousin. From her early years in Mexicali under the nurturing care of her beloved abuelita, Fernanda, to her explorations in the world of cinema, Adriana's journey is a testament to the transformative power of storytelling. She's currently leading a film class titled "Exploring Death & Grief via Cinema" and weaving the tapestry of her life into her first book. With her motto "Do not fear the unknown. Walk towards it and be transformed," Adriana encourages us all to lean into life's deepest mysteries.

In this deep episode, we explore Adriana's memories of Mexicali, the enduring wisdom of her abuelita Fernanda, and the solace she finds in film. We unpack the role of death as a character in our lives, how movies like "My Girl" "Ghost" and "Sixth Sense" shape our understanding of grief. We also discuss the healing power of ancestral foods and traditions and the importance of reconnecting with our roots to heal our lineage.

And let's not forget the intriguing question: Why "The Death Alchemist"? Dive in as Adriana eloquently shares her mission of transforming our perceptions of death and and how our relationship with death can shape how we show up in life. 

It's not every day you get to sit down with one of your favorite content creators, and trust me, by the end of this, Adriana might just become one of yours too.

Remember, it's all about transforming our relationship with death and embracing the lessons it brings. Tap in, tune in, and let's channel our inner #griefsense together. ๐Ÿ’ซ๐Ÿ”ฎ
