ABOUT josephina
As a Frequency Fairy and Creative Visionary, I show up in the World in the way the World needs at each moment. My calling comes from Source, and I am guided by my deep connection to this planet Earth, also known as Mama Gaia.
In 2001, the World needed coders, so I become an IT Consultant; I learned Java, C++, SQL, Peoplesoft and I trained others how to code.
In 2003, the World needed to wake up surrounding our connection to Source via food – I worked with chefs forging a deep connection to Source via Farm to Table food. This movement awakened the consciousness of the world surrounding the importance of our ingredients, where our food came from and the connection we have to the air, the soil, the plants and the animals.
In 2006, the World showed me that hospitality wasn’t the medium to move this forward. And I aligned with chef Greg Christian and started a non-profit called Organic School Project, and subsequently a for-profit consulting company Beyond Green Partners, whom I still work with today.
In 2008, I became a Mother and devoted my life to raising my 3 boys.
In 2017, the World needed more delight, so I launched CUR(8) Chicago as an experience designer/consultant for visionaries, entrepreneurs and founders.
In 2020, the World needed healing - for me it was a mental health awareness journey in which I self-selected out of traditional Western medical treatments and big pharma solutions, and instead chose an alternative healing path of Ayurveda. I awakened to my inner REmembrance of my soul’s purpose as a Priestess, to be connected to the Divine via the Interconnectedness of All, to REcognize our embodied wholeness + holiness and to REclaim EROS as our birthright: Temple of Loha was born.
LOHA is Sanskrit for iron, the iron in the swords and shields of the Warrior within All and the Priestess/Daka/Dakini within those who answer the Call. It is also the iron within our blood, the sacred elixir that binds us as humans and what defines us as Unique Self Symphonies. We are differentiated by blood, by LOHA, and unified in the mission to protect this planet and Her people.
