Who is La Loba — the Wolf Woman

This Latina Heritage Month, we honor La Loba:
the gatherer of bones,
the singer of life,
the Wild Woman of Mexican and Southwestern legend who restores what has been silenced.

More than folklore, she is an archetype — the fierce feminine soul that refuses to be tamed. She teaches us that even when broken, forgotten, or hunted, we can rise, rebuild, and sing our stories back into the world.

In Indigenous traditions, wolves are guides, protectors, kin. La Loba reminds us that women hold this same untamed power — the force of resilience, renewal, and deep healing.

Like the wolves, women have been misunderstood, suppressed, hunted. And like the wolves, we carry the wisdom to restore balance when we are free to live wild.

This month, may we gather the bones of our lost stories — and breathe them back to life. For ourselves. For our sisters. For the wolves.

Whispers of the Sacred Wind
🪶https://nativefamilyarts.com/native0001
Listen to the wind—
it carries the voices of ancestors,
songs woven through cedar trees,
echoing the memory of the Earth.

Listen to the silence—
it speaks in the heartbeat of rivers,
in the stillness of the stars,
in the fire that glows without words.

Listen to your heart—
it is the drum of creation,
a sacred rhythm older than time,
a guide when the path grows dark.

The wind talks.
The silence speaks.
The heart knows.
And in this circle,
all things live as one.

How I’ve been spending most of my days lately… supporting couples transition into parenthood. Birth doula life

Woke up with such gratitude in my heart that I knew this morning I was going to sit with Mama Qocha, my Misa/Mesa, Pucucho, Sacred Rapé and Palo Santo to do ceremony.

Grateful for the teachers, sister, brothers and elders that have come, gone and stayed in my life and who has taught me this medicine.
Grateful for my pachamama, Apus and sacred spirits that are with me everyday teaching me the beauty and joy of life.
Grateful that I am able to surrender and release whats not for my highest good.

Being a shaman isn’t about doing. It’s about living and experiencing life… from deep down in the darkness to high above in the light and everything in between.

Once upon a time,
When women were birds,
There was the simple understanding
That to sing at dawn
And to sing at dusk
Was to heal the world through joy.
The birds still remember what we have forgotten,
That the world is meant to be celebrated.
