This week's guest Louisa Boifuana Afeau is a self-healer, intuitive guide, and sacred space holder. Her work blends South Pacific cacao, movement, and meditation — all guided by deep inner knowing and ancestral remembrance.

She has walked the path of healing through the trauma of divorce, natural disaster, growing up with a bipolar mother, and carrying the weight of generational pain. Movement — from dance to martial arts — has been a lifeline, helping her come home to her body and reclaim her power.

Today, she gently guides others to remember their own ability to self-heal. A bridge between worlds, cultures, and generations, her presence is an invitation to reconnect, restore, and rise.
