Let’s be real—feeling stuck is part of the creative process.

In this episode of Cacao Conversations, we’re getting honest about what it really looks like when your inspiration dries up, your ideas stop flowing, and nothing you create feels quite right.

Sound familiar? You’re not alone. We’re pulling back the curtain and sharing the raw truth about our own creative blocks—and the practices that help us move through them.

Whether it’s stepping away from the work, leaning into ritual, or just letting ourselves feel all the damn feels, this episode is packed with grounded wisdom to help you reconnect with your creative spark. ✨ Because creativity isn’t about forcing it—it’s about remembering who you are.

Sip your cacao and join us as we explore:

What blocks creative energy and how to identify it early Rituals and tools we use to reignite inspiration

Why rest and play are essential parts of the creative process

How comparison and perfectionism sabotage creativity

Ways to create even when it’s not “perfect”

If you’ve been questioning your magic, your voice, or your vision—this episode is your reminder: the muse never really leaves you… sometimes she’s just waiting for you to come home to yourself.

In this heart-opening episode of Cacao Conversations, we’re flipping the script and turning inward—asking the question: How do you hold space for your own healing? ✨

We talk a lot about being there for others, creating safe spaces, and showing up with compassion… but what about ourselves? How often do we sit with our own pain, listen to our own needs, and truly honor what we’re moving through?

Today, we’re diving deep into the practices, mindsets, and rituals that support us in being with ourselves—even when it’s messy, raw, or uncomfortable. From sacred cacao ceremonies and journaling to setting boundaries and letting ourselves cry it out, we’re sharing the very real ways we hold space for our own healing in a world that constantly tells us to keep going.

Grab your cacao, your journal, or just your open heart—and join us for a conversation that’s honest, vulnerable, and (as always) a little bit magical. In this episode, we explore:

• What “holding space” for yourself actually means
• Why self-compassion isn’t soft—it’s powerful Practices we use to support emotional processing and energy release
• How to recognize when you’re bypassing or numbing

The importance of slowing down and letting yourself feel Because the truth is… healing isn’t something we check off a list. It’s a sacred, ongoing relationship with ourselves. And you deserve to be held—especially by you.

Cacao Conversations Podcast: Balancing Giving and Receiving in Relationships with Julietta & Graciela

Welcome to Cacao Conversations—your weekly dose of heart-opening, soul-nourishing conversations, served with a warm cup of cacao. Join Julietta and Graciela as they dive deep into life’s big questions, offering humor, wisdom, and authentic stories to inspire and empower you on your journey of self-discovery.

Whether we're laughing about life’s quirks, reflecting on spiritual growth, or simply chatting about everyday topics (like, is the weather a bigger deal as we age?!), we share it all. From cacao ceremonies to sweat lodge rituals, our podcast covers everything that brings us closer to our true selves and to each other.

This week, we're tackling a crucial topic: How do you balance giving and receiving in relationships? Most of us are more comfortable with giving than receiving, but healthy, soul-aligned relationships require both. In this episode, we explore the delicate balance of offering love and allowing ourselves to be loved.

We’ll discuss why receiving can be challenging for some (hello, control issues and old programming) and how embracing the art of receiving with grace can be one of the most transformative acts of healing. Julietta and Graciela also share personal insights, wins, and lessons learned through their relationships—romantic, platonic, and professional.

Tune in for real, authentic conversation that will help you cultivate relationships that nourish both sides of the equation.

Grab your favorite mug, pour in some cacao, and join us for a laugh-filled, heartfelt chat that’s all about empowering you to step into the life that’s truly yours.

Welcome you to Cacao Conversations—where every week, we indulge in heart-opening chats over a comforting cup of cacao. Join our podcast for candid, often humorous explorations of life’s profound questions. From our journey through transformation to chuckling at life’s quirks, even pondering the weather (which seems to matter more these days, right?!?), you’ll get an intimate view into our sometimes chaotic, deeply spiritual, always genuine lives.

So, grab your favorite mug, fill it with cacao, and join us for some deep laughter. Cacao Conversations is all about empowering you to reconnect with your purpose and step into a life that truly reflects who you are.

How do you align with your purpose? It’s a question we’ve all wrestled with—perhaps in the stillness of a sleepless night or amidst a chaotic car ride (no judgment here!). In this episode, we dive into what purpose means, how it evolves over time, and the practices that anchor us to it—especially when life feels overwhelming. We’ll discuss the things that knock us off balance, how to recognize when we’re off-track, and the small yet potent rituals that guide us back to our true selves. This isn’t about striving for perfection—it’s about living authentically from the depths of our souls.

So, pour yourself some cacao, take a deep breath, and join us as we explore staying grounded in your essence and fulfilling your unique path. Your cup is full, your journey awaits. Let’s sip, chat, and transform together.

We’re Julietta and Graciela, and we’re so excited to welcome you (or welcome you back) into Cacao Conversations—your weekly dose of heart-opening chats, served with a warm cup of cacao and a big side of realness. This podcast is our sacred (and sometimes silly) space to explore what it means to live authentically, love boldly, and laugh through the messy middle.

We talk about the spiritual tools that support us, the lessons we’ve learned (and relearned), and all the divine breadcrumbs that have led us to where we are now.

In this episode, we’re reintroducing ourselves—because like you, we’ve grown, evolved, and shed some layers. We’re sharing who we are, what lights us up, why we do what we do, and how this community is at the heart of it all.

Whether you’ve been sipping cacao with us from the start or just found your way here, this episode is your official invitation to join the circle.

Get cozy, press play, and let’s reconnect.

✨ Your cup is ready.

✨ Your people are here.

✨ And your magic? We see it already.

We’re Julietta and Graciela, and we’re so excited to welcome you into Cacao Conversations—your weekly dose of heart-opening chats, served with a warm cup of cacao.

This podcast is your invitation to pull up a chair, get cozy, and join our unfiltered, often hilarious, always authentic conversations. We go deep on life’s big questions, share the wisdom we’ve picked up on our healing journeys, and laugh (a lot) at the magic and madness of being human.

Whether we’re diving into transformation, riffing on spiritual tools, or giggling about things like sweat lodge ceremonies and sweaty teen socks, you’ll feel like you’re right here with us. It's soulful, it's real, and yes... we may even talk about the weather—because honestly, it is more interesting at this age!

Cacao Conversations is about empowering you to remember who you are and step into a life that feels aligned and fully yours.

In today’s episode, we’re exploring the power of the divine feminine—not about gender, but energy. It’s flow over force, intuition over hustle, presence over productivity. It’s the art of soft strength—of creating from deep inner wisdom instead of pressure or performance.

We’ll unpack how to embody this energy, balance it with the divine masculine, and why your softness might just be your superpower. So grab your favorite mug, fill it with cacao, and join us for some profound laughter and soul-nourishing insights.

✨ Your cup is ready.
✨ Your journey is waiting.
Let’s sip, chat, and transform—together.

We’re Julietta and Graciela, and we’re so excited to invite you into our Cacao Conversations—your weekly dose of heart-opening chats, all served with a warm cup of cacao.

Whether we’re diving deep into transformation, laughing at life’s quirks, or talking about the weather (which, let’s face it, is a big deal at our age!), you get a front row seat to our sometimes crazy, mostly spiritual, and always authentic lives. From sweat lodge ceremonies to sweaty teen socks, we cover it all.

So, grab your favorite mug, fill it with cacao, and join us for some profound laughter. Cacao Conversations is about empowering you to remember who you are and step into the life that’s authentically yours.

In a world that glorifies being busy, building real, soul-nourishing relationships can feel like a challenge—but it doesn’t have to be. Authentic connections don’t require grand gestures; they thrive in the little moments—sending a voice note instead of a text, making eye contact when you ask, “How are you?” and actually listening to the answer. It’s about being present, dropping the masks, and showing up as your whole, beautifully imperfect self. In today’s episode, we’re talking about how to cultivate deeper relationships, set boundaries that protect your energy, and find your people—the ones who see you, get you, and love you exactly as you are. Grab your cacao, and let’s get real about love, friendship, and the art of meaningful connection.

Your cup is ready. Your journey is waiting. Let’s sip, chat, and transform—together.
