    Episode 137 - Mary Wright

    Mary Wright is an American painter and founder of the Wright Way Organic Resource Center in the Santa Monica Mountains, sacred land where her and her late husband, organic architect Eric Lloyd Wright lived, stewarded and offered to the public for ceremonial and teaching purposes for over 4 decades. Jaymee co-facilitated weekly sweat lodge ceremonies with shaman Miguel Rivera at Wright Way from 2014-2017, and this interview with Mary, recorded on Valentine's Day was a sort of homecoming for Jaymee, who views Mary as a saint. Recently her husband Eric passed away, and the home they shared was destroyed in the 2025 Malibu Fires. This conversation is a meditation on non-attachment, heartfelt resilience, the importance and truth of nature, and the abundant attitude of gratitude.  Mary's Art At Tara's Gallery: https://shorturl.at/O4DXm LITA PODCAST: hosted, produced, and recorded by Jaymee Carpenter.  SOUND MIXED: Austin Lee Goza OPENING SONG: “Ocean Of Beauty” by Earthtones Music.  CLOSING SONG: “Gangstaleen” by JJ RAM (J.
