About me

​I'm Fatua, a spirit-led practitioner, weaving the practical with the mystical. 

​​

My work brings together somatic facilitation, sex, love and relationship coaching, and psychedelic integration, informed by years of devotion to plant medicine, ancestral traditions, and the unseen realms. 

​

Since 2018, I've walked a healing path rooted in the medicine traditions of the Peruvian Amazon and Andes, and in the ancestral mediumship traditions of the Shona people of Zimbabwe.

​

I work with people in seasons of deep transformation, those ready to face what they have been hiding from, listen more deeply, and step into who they are becoming.

Lineage & Apprenticeship

​​

In 2018, I sat in my first ayahuasca ceremony with the Shipibo lineage. What began as a search for healing and understanding soon became a calling. I followed that call to Peru, where I've spent the years since apprenticing with my Shipibo and mestizo maestros, Hilda Arevalo Rojas and Loyver Yui, and walking the path of master plant dietas, that opened me to the songs, wisdom, and healing power of the plants.

​I now spend several months of each year living in the Peruvian Amazon, where I help faciliatate sacred medicine retreats at Novalis, a center for rainforest conservation and cultural preservation in Madre de Dios, alongside a multicultural team native to the region. 

​

Part of my path in the Amazon has also included kambo, known as acate by the indigenous Matses people. I was taught to harvest and serve this frog medicine with care and without harm to the frogs, learning alongside Johnny Java of the Kichwa and Matses lineages. I'm also a certified kambo practitioner, with training through Boa Cowee and continued specialized study under Caitlin Thompson.

My path also led me to Zimbabwe, where I was initiated as a spirit medium within the Shona traditions, under the guidance of Samaita Jonathan Dube. My mediumship journey first began in the states with Chris Berry. This lineage has deepened my relationship with ancestral connection, prayer, African drumming, spirit communication, and traditional healing. During my time there, I also studied Shona  herbalism, and was entrusted with a sacred ancestral medicine from the bush.

How This Shapes My Work

​

Over the years, I have come to see which themes return again and again beneath the surface, the body, intimacy, relationship, inner child pieces, inherited patterns, and deeper truths people hold they have yet to let emerge. These are the places I feel called to meet people, not only in ceremony, but in everyday life. 

​

My work today brings together somatic facilitation, psychedelic integration, and sex, love and relationship coaching through the VITA method created by Layla Martin. My somatic training was through the Integrative Psychology Institute, and my psychedelic integration work was shaped through the Psyched Soul Method by Shiri Godasi. Together, these approaches offer grounded support for people moving through change, helping them listen more deeply to the body, understand their patterns, and create shifts that can be lived, not just realized. 

​

I’m also trained in energy medicine through Alberto Villoldo’s Four Winds Light Body School, in the lineage of the Q’ero people of the high Andes. The sessions I offer are informed by these teachings, as well as by years of lived apprenticeship in the Amazon and Zimbabwe.

​

Whether someone is preparing for or integrating a psychedelic experience, navigating intimacy and relationship patterns, or learning to work with what is stored in the body, I offer a space that is reflective, embodied, and attuned to both the practical and the unseen.

Other Threads of My Work

​

There are other threads of my life that quietly shape the way I listen, create, and serve.

In 2019, I birthed Soul Melody Cacao, a cacao and herbal tincture business born from a friendship with Jané, a cacao farmer who lives upriver from Novalis. Through it, I remain in relationship with the medicines, lands, and communities that have shaped my path, while supporting indigenous farmers in Peru and Guatemala.

​

Music is woven through everything I do. I’m a songwriter, ukulele player, and African drummer, with studies through Chris Berry and ongoing drum study with Baba Fred Simpson. These threads inform my relationship to sound, rhythm, prayer, and healing, and they continue to influence the spaces I hold.

​

I also host This Mystical Life, a podcast where I sit with teachers, healers, and seekers from traditions across the world.

​

Before the Amazon, I studied art in Colorado and later moved to Kauai, where I trained as a massage therapist, studied lomi lomi, and taught yoga. Those years planted many of the first roots of the path I now walk.

​

Today, my life moves between Tulum, Mexico, and the Peruvian Amazon, with travel in devotion to study, ceremony, and service.
