A Conversation with Di Riseborough: Authenticity, Healing, and the Power of Forgiveness
In this deeply reflective episode, I had the honor of hosting Di Riseborough, a former therapist of mine, in a poignant role reversal. Di, an incredibly powerful breath therapist, shares her journey from South Africa to Canada, touching on the challenges she faced in adapting to a new culture while staying grounded in her true self. She opens up about the profound experience of confronting the brutal murder of her grandmother, how it shaped her understanding of love and forgiveness, and how she found the strength to forgive the murderer—an act that speaks volumes about the depth of her heart and healing journey.
Throughout our conversation, Di talks about authenticity—not just as a concept, but as a way of life. She beautifully reflects on a quote that has stayed with her, challenging all of us to think about how we can truly "walk the walk" of being authentic, not just talk the talk. For Di, authenticity means being true to who you are, even when it risks portraying something or someone else. It's about honoring yourself and staying rooted in your essence, no matter the external pressures.
Di’s wisdom and compassion shine through as she speaks about her work today, holding space for those who are on their healing paths. Her ability to offer unwavering support and profound empathy has made her a guiding light for many. I tell her in this episode that she reminds me of Mother Earth—she holds so much space for people, nurturing their growth and supporting them in their healing.
