from a workshop in Zuni pueblo
~ Leatrice Lewis ~
After I spoke my CATALYST EXPRESSION, I felt like a mule who had traveled from Mexico to Shiwina (Zuni) for the first time. We all have been carrying the burdens of colonization since the 1500's. I also felt like a bird (child of eagle), a flapping of wings trying to take flight on wounded wings. Finally, wings in flight, soaring and continuing the journey to be part of ancestral destiny.
YOUR VOICE AS CATALYST was so joyful. Our group made very deep connections. Shebana is engaging and generous with her time and skills. She brings a rich multicultural knowledge and sensitivity that weaves into a magical way of guiding the body, mind and soul of people who work with her. Her patient and sensitive approach midwifes people into to deep levels of themselves and the story they want to tell. And it all gets polished by her excellent knowledge of technical aspects of writing and creating art. She is that rare person who can help others bring body, soul, and mind together in the creative process of their choosing—be it writing, visual, performance or other art forms.

On this journey I saw some beautiful beings, five women, and one man. I feel ready to discover more of the world, I feel lighter about pouring my heart out, all corners of it. Our facilitator, Shebana Coelho is a true magician constantly pulling different facets of her multi dimensionality and joyful self out of her universal hat.

Your Voice as Catalyst series was a profound experience. It was an opportunity to give expression to the thoughts and feelings that have been looping in my mind and nagging at my soul. Shebana worked her shamanic magic to create fertile soil, and to water and nurture the seeds from their imprisonment. I didn’t just enjoy it, I needed it.

When I started this journey, I was so scared to share my voice and actually to be seen by others in sharing! Your voice as Catalyst was so much fun! I never expected that it would feel so joyful to share my voice and so exciting to be seen. A new world opened up for me. Now I know how much I love this. And I feel a new level of confidence in sharing. This is a HUGE thing for me. This journey also brought me deeper into my own writing and a lot of inspiration has been coming to me since I joined this program. I am so grateful that I got to be part of this journey! Shebana is a great teacher. She has so much wisdom to share and she knows how to guide the group with compassion and play. Thank you Shebana! I wish I could do this program all year long!
