The Journey of My Book
I arrived home one day to find a box with my name on it. Confused, I opened it to discover a Spanish translation of my book! Holding it felt surreal. It’s been nearly two years since Heal Your Ancestral Roots: Release the Family Patterns That Hold You Back was released in March 2023.
But this journey wasn’t easy.
When I first approached publishers, many said no. They told me I needed a significant social media following to make the book viable. Resigned, I planned to self-publish on 02.22.2022, a date I hoped would bring some luck.
Just a week before, I heard a publisher might be interested. I was skeptical, but when they offered serious interest, I was shocked. They wanted to delay the release by a year, and I resisted. My editor’s mentor convinced me to wait, assuring me it was the right choice. She was right, waiting paid off in ways I couldn’t have imagined.
How My Ancestors Played a Role
What I rarely share is how ancestral healing shaped this journey. During my first ancestral healing session, my facilitator said, “Your grandmother wants you to write a book.” I dismissed the idea, after all, I had only met my grandmother a few times. But as I deepened my ancestral healing work, writing became a way to process emotions and insights. Thousands of words later, the book emerged.
Today, Heal Your Ancestral Roots has sold 5,000 copies, with a Spanish edition being released this May.
A Moment to Remember
I often think of my grandmother, Aita, and her resilience. The last time I saw her, she cooked luchis for me and my sister. As we left her home, she stood at the doorway, pulling her shawl tightly around her. I never saw her again.
When she passed, the city she nurtured mourned her deeply. Her generosity and kindness touched countless lives, people she fed, supported, and sheltered. She was a force of love, and her spirit continues to inspire me.
Sometimes it’s hard to see where life is taking you. But looking back, I’m grateful I waited, listened, and trusted my journey. My ancestors, and my publisher, did far more for this book than I could have alone.
That’s the beauty of ancestral healing: It carries you further than you could ever imagine.
