Hi. I’m Angélica Rodríguez.
We’re on a wild ride in these modern times. We have all the conveniences, yet we’ve stepped away from the healing traditions that have kept our ancestors alive and well.
Embracing shamanism and practicing curanderismo (Mexican folk healing) has helped transform my life. In 2010, I had a major health scare, yet my doctors couldn’t find anything.
They told me, “There’s nothing we can find. You have a clean bill of health.”
The problem was I was doubled over in stomach pain most days and it wasn’t a way to live. I knew something had to change, and thankfully another doctor referred me to a medical qigong doctor. That is what began my exploration into alternative healing modalities, which ultimately led me to shamanism.
Shamanism is a healing practice.
Shamanism is a spiritual practice.
Shamanism is a cosmology (belief system).
The truth is, shamanism has become a way of life for me. It is a beautiful practice that has put me directly in touch with my Helping Spirits in the spirit world to heal ancestral wounds that have held me back.
Shamanism has helped me:
overcome years of self-hate
move out of the stuckness I felt for years
turn around self-doubt
see where fear has been leading my life (so I could transform it)
step into my personal power.
Those around me would look at me and from the outside looking in, think “Wow, she has her stuff together!” but I felt the polar opposite.
You see, we are raised with the belief that we are inherently flawed. We are told (in so many words) that we are inherently damaged goods. We are raised to believe that some entity outside of us has the ability to swoop in, forgive us, and set us free. That wasn’t the path that was setting me free.
We are inherently beautiful, powerful, and a part of the divine.
One of the greatest acts of self-love is to step more fully into your power and claim your rightful place in this world. I can help show you how.
My work is gentle and very powerful. It supports healing, rest, rejuvenation, and restoration in ways aligned and customized for you. This healing is no longer a “nice-to-have” or a “luxury.” It’s a necessity and it’s needed everywhere - from the corporate board room and non-profit leadership teams to entrepreneurs and solopreneurs. The challenge that our time is asking us to rise into is to show up and lead with a different approach.
If you are ready to learn more and talk, contact me. I am ready to support you in a way that is aligned for you.
