Beloved Friend!

I’m so grateful you’ve found your way here, that our paths have intertwined, and that we can weave together in this shared space of reflection and storytelling. From this moment forward, please know that you are warmly welcomed—not just as a reader, but as part of a greater circle of healing and connection. I see you, I honor your journey, and I am here, cheering you on as you create the life you truly desire and deserve.

I know the world is overflowing with advice on how to live, pulling you in countless directions—be more of this, less of that. I’ve felt it, too. That’s why I chose to step outside the noise and honor a different path—one rooted in ancestral wisdom, self-agency, and intuitive knowing. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Instead, I believe in collective healing that begins with personal empowerment, in the quiet remembering of your own wisdom and the reclamation of your voice.

We are each a manta (shawl) of lived experiences shaped by the landscapes, environment, cultures, and stories that raised us. My intention with my writing and work is to support you in reclaiming the sacredness of your existence—to remind you that your healing is not just personal; it is a vital thread in the fabric of collective well-being.

As part of this community, you’ll receive the latest news about my books, reflections, articles, and audio recordings. You can also visit my website to explore additional writings, blogs, and resources available in both Spanish and English.

Regarding paid subscriptions, I believe in reciprocity—that when we give from the heart, abundance finds its way back to us. If you find meaning in my work, I deeply appreciate your support. As a paid subscriber, please know that a portion of your contribution is donated to nonprofits supporting women and youth, extending our collective impact beyond these words.

Thank you for being here. Thank you for walking this journey with me.
