My Story
I went for a massage, and everything changed.
I have always tried to hold on to the magic I felt growing up in a tropical country –to be forever playful, heaping with passion and filled with curiosity. I was raised with beauty in all directions, where nature has countless breathtaking terrains and people welcome you with the most colourful cultural lattice you can imagine. My world was hypnotizing drums, waves to ponder in front of, legendary stories and hello-kisses.
My language was music and I moved in Spanish.
Moving to Canada was a profound change. I adapted, I absorbed, and I pivoted, I put my brilliance into projects and climbed the right ladders. But slowly, something began to feel off. By early 2017, the cracks were showing. My game face was deeply intact yet the arrow of my life was pointing in a direction not of my own making. I was starving for meaning, burning out and following scripts not written by me.
Do you know this feeling? Like you followed a map and realized the terrain no longer matched it?
On a more intimate level: beneath the curated image, I was aching for something authentic. For depth. For peace. For pleasure. For love. For my full Self. The Woman beyond the labels and expectations. The sensual one. The sacred one. The wild one. The magic we all carry. And perhaps, like you, I didn’t have a guide. Just a deep inner whisper: is this it? there’s more… and somehow, better.
We often approach these topics from the neck up—analyzing, overthinking, playing the role of our own psychologist. But I craved something different. I wanted to meet myself in practice, through my body—to feel something new, break a pattern, and transform my experience from the inside out. Not in a “woo-woo” way, not a temporary fix or validation, and not just to “work out the knots,” but to actually unlearn what created the tension in the first place. You know what I mean? For me, a tantric massage just made sense.
““A story must be judged according to whether it makes sense. And ‘making sense’ must be here understood in its most direct meaning: to make sense is to enliven the senses. A story that makes sense is one that stirs the senses from their slumber, one that opens the eyes and the ears to their real surroundings, tuning the tongue to the actual tastes in the air and sending chills of recognition along the surface of the skin. To make sense is to release the body from the constraints imposed by outworn ways of speaking, and hence to renew and rejuvenate one’s felt awareness of the world. It is to make the senses wake up to where they are.””
In a desperate need to gasp for air in the midst of my own chaos and burnout, I found a world of wonder, wisdom and grace. Totally out of my comfort zone, I booked a massage and arrived quietly hopeful, brittle. It was so clear to me once I surrendered to the process and set my intention, it revealed my inner life and started to unveil the light and connection that I believed had been extinct in this modern world, using just oil and intention. It was deeply inspirational and stopped me in my tracks. It spoke a language I had forgotten I knew. It tuned me back to the field of energy where spirit meets flesh, where the senses speak louder than words, where the stories behind the stories unravel in silence.
It woke me up. It makes it impossible to live only in your head. You must inhabit your body and listen to its deepest story, in poetry rather than prose. Osho’s teachings resonate here: "Truth is not something outside to be discovered, it is something inside to be realized."
Such slow, immersive touch seemed to work under my day-to-day persona and unlock my native sensuality, inner life, and sacred truths. This amazing process showed me that these were merely ways into who I was being called to become. In many ways it was only natural to find myself captivated by this kind of experience, as it is musical, flowing and pulsing with energy. All in all, this experience inspired a whole new standard for touch and awareness for my life, and consequentially, my other senses had to follow suit. I had to inhabit my whole self—and invite others to do the same.
So in mid 2018, I created Gemmasphere’s Self-Discovery Studio—a sanctuary for you to heal, reveal, expand and transform—through the body, through story, through love.
This is a space where you don’t have to perform, explain, or edit who you are… where the body is invited to speak, where your soul is held in reverence, and where you can stop the chase and remember that truth is something to feel. You already hold the codes.
This was the beginning of my devotional commitment to my personal, relational and spiritual growth.
Transformation didn’t happen in a straight line for me. After that awakening, I faced the first test: a mysterious injury that made it impossible to work for months. I fell into a spiral of pain, fear, old relationship dynamics, and emotional residue. But in that darkness, I found the path forward… and more. I reached out to a Personal Growth Coach and gifted myself a Breakthrough Session—a fusion of NLP, Hypnotherapy, and deep subconscious healing. It was one session, and I rewired my entire life.
I went from surviving to thriving, from injured to whole, from self-doubt to love.
““When our behaviors match our intentions, when our actions are equal to our thoughts, when our minds and our bodies are working together, when our words and our deeds are aligned … there is an immense power behind any individual.” ”
Now, the ultimate test appeared for me: a global pandemic. This was a true testament and feedback about how my inner work influenced my outer experience and results. It was a delight to witness myself respond in a new way of being. My injury healed within two weeks, it was a blessing and a lesson in disguise. My energy surged like never before, even during lockdown and in the depth of uncertain times. My vision expanded and everything began to flow with ease! I stopped playing small and began making powerful, aligned choices. I reconnected with my calling and began mastering the very tools that had transformed me—so I could serve others on their own journeys of awakening.
Soon, my clients began to transform their lives, share their wisdom forward, and make their dreams come true too.
Today, I’m a certified guide, coach, mentor and creative force devoted to helping others to unlock their sensuality, authenticity, and personal power. Whether through immersive bodywork, coaching, or meaningful conversations, I’m here to walk beside you as you remember who you really are.
Honestly, I feel this is only the beginning!! Stay tuned!
