Aloha and welcome to the latest episode of Random Acts of living! This episode is an amazing conversation I was able to have with a young woman Sheridan Ruth who is absolutely a lovely badass woman changing the world! I love these conversations so much as they give me hope as we all come out of the pandemic,  that there are women and men who are working to change the destructive course we have been living in and will do this wk for decades to come! 

Sheridan is a world traveler, women’s empowerment advocate, yogi, and Yoga Therapist. She supports women with hair loss to feel more self-acceptance, step into their true power, and radiate confidence. Sheridan supports women at various stages of their journey, who share one common goal – transforming their hair loss journey into a self-empowering, spiritual journey. 

Since losing her hair at 7 years old, Sheridan battled the ups and downs of hair loss for most of her life. Brought to the yoga mat by her own mental health afflictions, Sheridan was once unsure about what to do and where to go, completely disconnected from her reality and her body. Today she is motivated to assist others in moving past their own entrenched traumas and self-confidence issues through the practice of yoga. She accomplishes this through a deep understanding and constant study of the connection between mind and body and uniting the esoteric teachings of this ancient practice with valuable, evidence-based western sciences such as psychology.  

She now exclusively serves the hair-loss community, creating safe spaces for her community to dive deep into self-inquiry, reconcile with their bodies, and connect with a sense of grounded confidence. Her calm but energetically powerful teaching style creates a safe and loving space in which to grow and ultimately encourages a better relationship with your physical and spiritual bodies, greater awareness, and a profound sense of self-love. 

She is the Director of operations of Proyecto Florecer-Proyecto Florecer’s (Proyecto Flourish) grass-roots programs, led by local community volunteers, to offer Latin American women the opportunity to break cycles of poverty, under-employment, sex trafficking, gender discrimination, drug abuse, early pregnancy, under-education, and abusive relationships. more information about Proyecto FlorecerSheridan has been featured in Bald Life Magazine, Medium and Elephant Journal, and now Random Acts of Living!

Random Acts of Living

Host Emillia Noordhoek shares deeply personal, heartbreakingly poignant true stories about surviving personal loss and transforming trauma into “Random Acts of Living” a call to action to get her through some of her most challenging moments. Recounting an unusual childhood full of weird, wonderful and truly funny moments to loss and redemption as a very imperfect single mother, artist, partner and community activist, she explores the stories that appear in our lives in big and small ways, teaching us the joy of living and learning from day dreaming, singing out loud, being mischievous, to more serious endeavors such as art and music (both making and experiencing) community organizing, saving our democracy, social justice and climate change. We are all in this together and the stories that we tell and share with each other give us valuable insight into the state of our lives, both the public and private, because what seems random is really anything but! Emillia Noordhoek is a social entrepreneur, mentor, and artist having lived the last 13 years on the small island of Molokai, Hawaii. She is a co-founder of both Sust`aina ble Molokai and the Molokai Arts Center and currently finds herself in the Midwest in the middle of the global pandemic and personal crisis. Emillia has been deeply influenced by Native Hawaiian leaders through the Aloha `Aina movement integrating the values she was taught into her daily life. She seeks to find value and significance in the stories that shape our world and define us as members of this human race on the blue marble spinning in our universe. Join her every week for a unique take on living, breathing, and exploring our humanity through Random Acts of Living!
