“I really craved being in a SAFE open space shared with women and RISE was the perfect place for that. Valeria holds space in such a beautiful and authentic way that made me feel safe to share my thoughts, feelings, as well as my unique energy. I felt extremely welcomed by her but also by all the other women participating and I am truly thankful I had the opportunity to be in this beautiful space.”

RISE: An 8-Week Sanctuary for Women in Transition

Who Is This Mentorship For?

For the woman standing at the edge of change—this is your moment

You don’t have to go through this alone.

So many of us move through transitions in isolation, convinced we’re the only one feeling this way. We sit with our sadness, our anxiety, our worries ruminating, overthinking, feeling stuck. Maybe we don’t want to burden others. Maybe we don’t even have the words for what we’re feeling.

But here’s the truth: You are not alone in this.

RISE is a space intentionally created for the woman who wants to be held through transition, to be nurtured, supported, and reminded of her power. You don’t have to figure it all out by yourself. You get to be witnessed. You get to be guided. You get to be in community as you move through this next chapter.

Come as you are. Leave with clarity, courage, and the deep knowing that you are not walking this path alone.

What you will experience

You know something needs to shift. You feel it deep in your gut. You’ve outgrown the job, the relationship, the version of yourself that no longer fits. But taking the next step? That’s where the fear, doubt, and hesitation creep in.

RISE is the space where you find your power again. This is your sanctuary for your transformation.

“What shifted for you through being part of RISE? My mindset on what healing looks like, that there is no one size fits all but when you have community, support and guidance it sure makes it a whole lot easier. I have always felt so disconnected from my roots and RISE helped bring me back to how my ancestors practiced healing, how they found themselves again and worked through trauma and the power of community especially an all women's community where we just get it.”

Meet Valeria

Founder of The Balam Sanctuary | Ceremonialist, Guide, and Space Holder

Hola, I’m Valeria, Mexicana, first-generation, and deeply devoted to the path of healing. My work isn’t just what I do; it’s who I am.

I’ve walked this road myself, unraveling generational trauma, reconnecting with my roots, and learning how to hold myself through the hardest seasons. No one is exempt from the waves of life, and over the years I’ve learned to lean on community, the body, and ritual as anchors that keep me grounded through transition. Now I hold space for others to do the same.

With over 200 ceremonies facilitated, I’ve guided healing spaces across Mexico, Puerto Rico, and the United States, creating sanctuaries for deep transformation. My background blends trauma-informed yoga, Reiki energy healing, and psychedelic peer support training through the Zendo Project. As a plant medicine apprentice, I’ve spent years learning directly from the wisdom of the earth, integrating ancestral traditions with modern approaches to wellness and self-discovery.

Beyond my work as a ceremonialist, I also serve as a Program Manager at the Rocky Mountain Multiple Sclerosis Center, where I lead initiatives focused on culturally competent care and community programming for Spanish-speaking and underserved populations. Through this role, I help design accessible health and wellness programs that center equity, empathy, and the lived experiences of those navigating chronic illness.

Though this professional path fulfills me deeply, my heart work lives within The Balam Sanctuary. I believe in this work so much that I continue to make space for it — guiding women, holding circles, and building bridges between wellness, culture, and community. This is more than a passion project; it’s the embodiment of everything I believe in: healing as remembrance, leadership as service, and growth as an act of love.

My approach is rooted in presence, integrity, and compassion. I don’t stand above you; I sit beside you. I see you fully and walk with you as you remember your power, your truth, and your own medicine.

Let’s walk this path together, con corazón, con tierra, con verdad.
