Do you truly understand tolerance? Shayai Lucero blends traditional Pueblo lessons, teachings, and beliefs with other traditional ways of thought, her travels, experiences as an entrepreneur, as a scientist, a healer, LGBTIQ ally, daughter, mother, sister and friend… in developing a unique sense of tolerance that is needed in society today. Shayai Lucero was born and raised on the reservations of the Pueblos of Acoma and Laguna. She is a 2008 UNM graduate and a former Miss Indian World (1997). In 2011, Shayai was one of "40 Under 40" by the National Center for American Indian Enterprise Development. Shayai is a lifelong student of the traditional Pueblo healing methods. In 2005, she received her Certificate in Traditional Mexican Healing and has integrated Curanderismo Medicine with traditional Pueblo healing. In 2016, Shayai was selected as a "Nominated Changemaker" to attend the United State of Women Summit hosted by The Obama White House. She was one of 49 Native American women out of 5000+ participants. A small business owner of Earth & Sky Floral Designs, Shayai has learned floral design elements and techniques to create her own quirky floral style that has recently been recognized by the international floral industry. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at [ Ссылка ]
