From Pain to Purpose: Native American Elder Iniigoos on Ancestral Healing & the Spirit Path

Alcoholism. Ancestral Rupture. Generational pain.

Native American Elder Iniigoos McKay doesn’t shy away from the hard truths of his past — but nor does he remain trapped in them.

In this raw and reverent conversation on Who On Earth?, he shares how the inherited pain of his upbringing almost consumed him… until the ancient ceremonies of his people called him back to purpose.

Now travelling the world to pass on the wisdom of his ancestors, Iniigoos leads sacred sweat lodges, creates powerful ceremonial art, and offers teachings that speak directly to the spirit.

This is a story of survival — but more than that, it’s a story of sacred remembrance.
