"Marc-John and Erika's cacao leadership training was truly transformative. The training provided a deep understanding of cacao, emphasising responsibility in its use.

Lorna McLean

"I’ve been working with cacao for 12 years but I was looking for a deeper understanding, and this weekend with Erika and Marc-John achieved that. The highlight for me was delving into the journey of cacao, from the farmer, to the land, and Erika's family. Witnessing Erika personally chop the cacao brought me to tears. I now feel more equipped to lead cacao ceremonies, with a profound connection to the nature and source of the cacao. Deep gratitude to Marc-John, Erika, and the NWH team for this beautiful and deep experience."

NICE TO MEET YOU

I'm Erika Huarcaya

As a native Peruvian of an Andean tradition, it is an honour and privilege to be bringing you this sacred medicine from the lands of my family lineage.

My grandmother was a traditional Andean midwife and it was she who brought me into the world, using her traditional birthing methodologies.

Part of these methodologies was to use this beautiful and sacred medicine that is pure cacao, to help aid the birthing process, create women’s circles, and more.

Quite literally, I was born into the hands of the spirit of Cacao, and she has accompanied me throughout my entire life.

This is a connection that I feel truly privileged to share with you.

From my open heart to yours.

Erika

Rachael Andrews

"Marc-John and Erika hold such a safe container which facilitates deep healing. Aside from Erika's beautiful spirit in general, her cacao ceremonies with beautiful traditional music are one of my favourite things to partake in. Marc-John has an incredible knowledge of sacred practices and is a great teacher, but also a great advocate who brings in traditional wisdom holders to have the space to teach and heal."
