Summary

If you've ever wanted to be a leader, whether at home at work, or anywhere else in your life, or simply feel stronger in your own two feet, then do we have the Cherokee Wisdom show for you!

Today I'll be talking with Cynthia M. Ruiz, the city commissioner of Los Angeles, the former President of the Board of Public Works for Los Angeles with 5000 employees and a budget of 1 billion, and the author of several beautiful books including Cherokee Wisdom.

And that's just what we'll be talking about today, about lessons for becoming a powerful leader or individual.

That plus we'll talk about Rosa's fresh Pizza, a stomp dance and green corn, a grandmother and aunt soon, a loom from uncle bill, a friend of Sequoyah's, why when your legs are tired to walk with your heart, and what in the world's a belly-button check!
