59. African Spiritual Traditions, Ancestral Guidance, and Destiny Ft. Dr. Asanee Brogan

Shifting Dimensions

Jummie sits down with Dr. Asanee Brogan — spiritual coach, educator, and founder of Asanee44 — to demystify the ancient Ifa tradition and the deeper currents of African spirituality. Together, they explore what it truly means to reconnect with ancestral wisdom, honor sacred traditions, and align with your destiny.

Dr. Asanee shares her powerful spiritual journey from Christianity to rediscovering her roots through the Ifa and Haitian Vodou traditions. She sheds light on key concepts like the role of Orishas, ancestors, and the spiritual hierarchy within Ifa. We dive into the nuanced truth behind sacrifices, the concept of destiny vs. purpose, and the importance of balance, taboos, and spiritual protection when navigating ancestral practices.

We also discuss why many in the African diaspora are feeling a collective pull back to indigenous traditions — and how reconnecting with our ancestral practices may hold the key to our collective healing and empowerment.

Ifa is a West African spiritual tradition and divination system that originated with the Yoruba people of Nigeria
