Testimonials

“Working with Blanca was refreshing and fluid. It awakened in me a long-held desire to engage further in my connectedness with the elements in order to strengthen my sense of community in the surrounding lands. The other than humans I encountered along this retreat shared their wisdom and beauty and helped me engage in a deeper thought process of how I navigate the next 40 years of my life. Referencing collective wisdom and wisdom that felt familiar was also needed as it bridged the gap between feeling able to take space in places that have been colonized in certain respects and understanding my own personal, social, emotional power within this context. I cannot wait to be able to have Blanca as my guide and teacher and comrade in this ongoing journey with the ecospirit.” - Michelle Pereira, Cuentos y Cantos al Desierto 2025
