Lady Holly a.k.a. La Alien Bruja — A Spiritual Gangstar! Whether you're new to the path of sacred healing or deep in your own journey, know that you are seen and honored here. This is an invitation into the spaces where sensuality, spirituality, and soul truth meet. Know Thy Sex to Know Thy Self was the foundation of my earlier practice—centered on sacred sexuality, embodiment, and one's soul awakening through pleasure. As my work deepened, so did my call to evolve. As I expanded into La Alien Bruja, I stepped more fully into my truth—a multidimensional guide, Shaman/Oracle if we have to make it make sense. This evolution was born from witnessing how deeply people crave meaning not only in pleasure, but in every threshold of their becoming — from birth to rebirth, and every rite in between.
I’ve since expanded my practice into practical alchemy—the transformation of life’s experiences into healing and power — supporting transitional stages of life with greater depth and intention. I offer guidance as a relationship mediator and gentle provocateur, and I create brave containers — safe, sacred spaces — for moments of profound change & expansion: birth, partnership, separation, and personal transformation.
