Zhawa East
I'm Zhawa! My full indigenous name is Nigwigan Biinjibizo Waabani-Nodin Sa Zhawenim. It translates to: I have wings and fly about in the east wind carrying blessings. In 2000 I was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and I just turned 23 years this year. I have known all my life that I am a spiritual being put on earth with spiritual work to do, but for years I did not know my purpose and what my work would be. I grow spiritually each day and understand that my primary spiritual work is not with people but with animals, especially who end up in a shelter. I realized this is my spiritual assignment or mission on earth because I am gifted in working with animals. I commune with their spirits. My ability to be informed by our spiritual connection eases their transitions when they are passing.
