“I believe that our inner life defines our outer life.
When we are able to tap into our WILD nature, find empowerment within ourselves and how we show up in the world, everything becomes possible. This inspires others to do the same.
This is how we make massive impact on a collective scale. It starts with each one of us.
Together, we rise.”
Niki Serafina Lúz Jaimes, Founder of Rising Wolf Collective
Hi Friend! It’s so great to meet you!
I‘ve lived my life led by so many titles. Having one foot in this world, I’ve identified myself by many Corporate and Board-level titles. I still honor these and yet, in my heart, I resonate most with the titles held in the other realm, the one of magic. I am a Priestess — a protector and keeper of the sacred, as well as a Sueñadora — a guide through the dream realms. I honor this wisdom and responsibility in everything I do and offer to this world.
I believe in magic. I listen to my dreams and move forward through their wisdom. I live what I speak whenever I can. I see the world with symbolic sight. I do my best to lead from the heart. To learn as much as my brain can handle. I ask questions. I get confused as hell. I allow myself to change my mind. I choose growth over and over again. And I sure as shit fail…a lot. Failure is what has taught me reinvention. I get down and hopeless. I question everything. And I hold on to the love, the mystery through it all. This is empowerment. Working with these things in all their aspects and growing through them? This is alchemy.
Life is WILD! None of us truly know what’s going on and whenever we think we do, we should just stop there. We are always learning. We are all on the same level. Some of us have just tried different tools that we can now choose to support others with on their journey. I would also say, I didn’t choose this path. This path chose me and I listened. Even when its felt gnarly and hellish. I’ve listened and I continue to.
This is where I’m at. This is who I am. A guide along the journey. The same as you, here to share learned and embodied wisdom from experience with the promise that I will dedicate my all to myself so that I can show up for you in the most authentic and supportive ways possible.
To become empowered and reconnected to ourselves and the God of our own understanding is to step into the hero/heroein’s journey. Whether as an individual or a business. To enter the wilderness to uncover everything that keeps you stuck. Whether in yourself or your surroundings. To remove the layers of conditioning to understand you and your greater connection to this incredible natural world. To do things differently than everyone else because you are free to express your truest self because there is sure as shit nobody else in this world quite like you.
You were born into this life for a purpose. You choose this. Let’s work together to remember why.
