Wisdom Keepers: w/Michel Hendricks pt 3 - Elders, Secure Attachment and Multi-ethnic Maturity

Tennison & Ginelle Barry with Michel Hendricks Season 3 Episode 31

"Attachment is the 'pipe' that maturity is passed from one vessel to another" ~ Michel Henricks

Elders are so important in building relationally healthy communities. Without them we are missing a key part and it's nearly impossible. What is the role of elders in community? What does healthy community look like? How do we glean their wisdom? In this new series, Wisdom Keepers: The Role of Elders in Building Relationally Healthy Community not only will these questions and many more be answered, the answers will come directly from Elders.

Secure attachment is needed for healthy relational maturity to be passed from one generation to the next. What happens when the attachment styles is insecure and skilled are being passed down? How can Elders help communities in this area? A gift that is under rated is the presence of different cultures within the community. Every culture has strengths and weaknesses and left to themselves the weakness grow and become more obvious. However, if we all live in the same community, the strengths of us all get amplified.

Join Tennison and Ginelle as they conclude their conversation with Michel Hendricks and discuss how elders help the community grow with secure attachment and model how to live. As elders also share stories of how it is for us to act, they create safety and security for the community at large.
