Cassandra grew up between the U.S. and Mexico in a deeply conservative household where the paranormal was never supposed to exist. Except it did. Shadow figures, a rotating cast of duendes, and a Hat Man wearing the face of someone she knew. That was just childhood.
Now she runs a full curanderismo practice rooted in biology, quantum physics, and devotion to La Santa Muerte. And no, before you ask, is Santa Muerte evil? Short answer: no.
Cassandra breaks down what Santa Muerte protection actually looks like in practice, what devotion costs you (hint: accountability), and how unresolved emotional trauma becomes chronic physical illness. She also explains what happens spiritually during an alcohol blackout, the difference between a soul liberation and an exorcism, and why she accepts donations instead of charging set fees.
