Her roots are part of the work.

Lauren walks Taíno and Mexica Indigenous paths and is an Espiritista. Spirit is not something she studies from a distance. It is part of how she lives, how she listens and how she sits with the people she works with.

If you grew up with a bodega and botánica, a grandmother who prayed over you or a family that reached for the herbs before the doctor... she comes from that too.
