15+ years guiding personal transformation
Experienced in facilitating couples work, communication tools, and long-term behavior shifts
Based in Sedona, available globally
A note: I come from a Guatemalan family that worked closely with cacao cultivation. While cacao is part of my practice, my focus is on clarity, emotional intelligence, and helping people achieve measurable growth — not spiritual identity or performance.
My Mission
Through The Sacred Cacao Path, I help leaders, visionaries, and couples break through emotional barriers and elevate their relationships. Rooted in ancient Mayan wisdom and grounded in modern psychology, I create transformative experiences that support deep healing, heart-centered leadership, and conscious connection.
My Belief
Cacao is a sacred ally in relationship healing. When used with intention, it opens the heart, softens emotional defenses, and creates a powerful space for truth, intimacy, and connection. It helps couples dissolve old patterns, communicate with clarity, and return to each other with compassion and renewed devotion. In this way, cacao becomes more than a plant — it becomes a bridge back to love.

A space where ancient traditions meet modern healing to nurture your body, mind, and spirit. These transformative experiences support deep healing, genuine connection, and clear self-discovery.
Why This Works?
Because it’s not just about healing — it’s about upgrading how you live,
love, and lead.
I bring over 15 years of experience in psychology, human behavior,
and relationship transformation, working at the intersection of
emotional intelligence, modern leadership, and human connection.
This work is direct, honest, and results-drive
Pure Mayan Magic: Artisanal Guatemalan Cacao Crafted for Your Soul
Our artisanal cacao is more than a drink — it’s a legacy. Handcrafted using traditional Mayan methods, this pure, ceremonial-grade cacao carries the essence of generations.
The cacao maker, now in his mid-40s, is a third-generation artisan who grew up immersed in the heart of cacao-making. As a little boy, he watched his grandmother prepare it, and by age seven, he and his brother were helping their mother continue the tradition. Over time, they fully embraced the craft, and after their mother passed just two years ago, he and his brother took over the family business.
Each cup holds our family’s devotion and the soul of Guatemala, inviting you to create your moments of warmth, connection, and renewal.
