I was 28 when everything changed. When I found out I was expecting my first child. It should have been one of the happiest times of my life.

Then I was diagnosed with Type one diabetes.

In a single moment, my future felt like it had been rewritten. Fear and uncertainty became my constant companions for many years. Even when they told me I would never be able to walk again. But instead of letting it break me, I dove deep into the world of natural health, remedies, plant medicine, and the healing traditions of our ancestors. I wanted to learn everything… a life long path of learning and growing, not just for me, but for my family and friends.

That journey didn’t just change my body, it transformed my spirit. It taught me that wellness isn’t just about surviving… it’s about living with intention, honoring what the earth gives us, and finding magic in the everyday.

The Brujo Bar was born from that transformation a place where every tea, every blend, and every ritual carries the same love, resilience, and purpose that pulled me through the darkest times.

Here, we don’t just sip tea. We share stories. We heal. We rise.
