In this rich and soul-stirring episode of Conversations with Cacao, host Alexandra Gabrielle Schooley-Marks welcomes Catalina Rivera-Dois—ceremonialist, healer, and guide of feminine flow—for a profound dialogue on the medicine of cacao and the reclamation of sacred feminine wisdom.

Together, Alex and Catalina explore cacao as a powerful plant ally that opens the heart, connects us to nature, and invites us into deeper ceremony, gratitude, and presence. Catalina shares her personal journey with cacao, the beauty of moon blood rituals, and the transformative power of honoring the earth through offerings and embodied reverence.

This episode moves through the essence of surrender, the balance between divine feminine and masculine energies, and the historical and spiritual weight of the witch wound. Catalina offers reflections on how healing begins with humility, trust, and cultivating deep relationships with the land and plant medicine.

Whether you’re a practitioner of ritual, curious about the feminine mysteries, or longing to feel more grounded and empowered in your spiritual path, this conversation invites you to slow down, listen to the land, and remember your own magic.
