  Shedding the Shell: The Power of Double Umoja he Blog Post https://www.spreaker.com/episode/shedding-the-shell-the-power-of-double-umoja--72282085 Family, we are standing at a major cultural intersection today. It's a Double Umoja day, and we are officially stepping into the 49-day Cycle of Ujamaa. But before you start thinking about building outward, we need to talk about the internal clutter you're hoarding. Are you currently fighting an internal civil war? When your intuition, mind, emotion, spirit, and physical self are tensed up against each other, unity is impossible.

This question holds weight, not just in words, but in action. It challenges us to examine the very nature of greatness and wisdom. What is Greatness? Recently, one of my elders transitioned to the ancestral realm. During his crossover ceremony, I had the honor of pouring libations and speaking on his legacy. I found myself saying, Elder Tony was a great man. But then I paused and corrected myself— Elder Tony was a wise man. There's a difference.
