Introduction Katukina.us Affiliate Spotlight Series: There’s a moment—when you sit with the right person, the right medicine, the right intention—where something shifts. You slow down. You soften. You remember.   In our affiliate spotlight series, Katukina.us, is about those moments… also lifting people up who deserve to be seen. This series exists to shine a light on them. In our next Affiliate Highlight, we step into the world of Camila Cóndor, founder of Medicine Wombyn Cacao in New Smyrna Beach, Florida. Camila’s work is rooted in a deep, embodied relationship with ceremonial cacao—held not just as a product, but as a living medicine of the heart. For generations, cacao has been used in ritual to open emotional pathways, deepen connection, and bring us back into presence with ourselves and others.   Through Medicine Wombyn Cacao, Camila shares ethically sourced, ceremonial-grade cacao infused with intention, reverence, and care. Her offerings invite a different rhythm—one that honors feeling, creativity, and the quiet intelligence of the body. It’s not about doing more… it’s about listening deeper. In this conversation, Camila shares her path, her connection to cacao, and the way she holds space for others—especially women—to return to their heart, their voice, and their inner knowing through ritual and presence.   Affiliate Highlight: Camila Cóndor (Medicine Wombyn Cacao) BUSINESS NAME: Medicine Mombyn Cacao ROLE:   Founder & Ceremonial Cacao Facilitator at Medicine Wombyn Cacao LOCATION:   New Smyrna Beach, FL FOCUS: Ceremonial Cacao, Heart-Centered Ritual, Feminine Embodiment SOCIALS:   Instagram: @Medicinewombyncaco Sharing Your Practice Discover My Ritual: How do Katukina.us's offerings support your personal rituals or the space you hold for others? What is an example? Katukina.us’s offerings support the spaces I hold by helping me deepen the prayer, protection, and intentionality around ritual. As someone who works with Cacao, sound, song, womb work, and earth-based practices, I value having access to tools that feel rooted in care and right relationship. I have worked with their hapé, sananga, and mapacho, as well as their artisan pieces, and each has supported me in different layers of preparation and presence. Whether I am preparing for a Cacao gathering, opening a private session, or tending to my own personal prayer, these tools help me arrive more fully, more grounded, and more connected. The Featured Medicine If you could recommend just one product from our collection to a fellow practitioner, which would it be — and why? I would recommend their Colombian Cacao. It is the same Cacao I source and share through Medicine Wombyn Cacao and I know exactly where it comes from in Valle del Cauca, Colombia, through relationships that are personal and rooted in care for the land and the people. While they offer other blends and preparations, I personally prefer working with the pure ceremonial bar from Colombia, where it naturally grows with extra fat content (the nutrients live in the fat). There is something about its simplicity and integrity that allows the medicine to speak clearly. I trust it as true heart medicine, supporting emotional openness, nervous system regulation, and deeper connection in a very embodied way. RECOMMENDED OFFERING: Ceremonial Cacao from Colombia  Why Katukina.US What makes Katukina.us your trusted source for these medicines or tools? Katukina.us is very dear to my heart because they were the first wholesale buyer of Medicine Wombyn Cacao. They have supported my growth not only as a business, but also on a personal level. That kind of relationship means everything to me. I have also experienced the quality and intention behind their offerings firsthand, from their plant medicines to their artisan-made pieces like Shipibo dresses, alpaca ponchos, and ruanas. It is rare to find a place where both the medicines and the crafts feel held with this level of integrity. Their work feels rooted in relationship, not just transaction, and that is something I deeply value. Integrity & Responsibility What does ethical, intentional use of plant medicine mean in your work? Ethical and intentional use of plant medicine means remembering that these are not just products. They are connected to land, culture, and lineage. In my work, this means moving with care, honoring consent, education, preparation, and integration. It also means not overusing or misrepresenting these tools, and being mindful of how and when they are shared. I approach this work with humility, always remembering that the medicine is not mine. I am simply in a relationship with it. I also feel sourcing directly from indigenous communities as much as possible is the best way to go, and I see how, at Katukina.us, they can even tell you the names of who prepared the medicines more often than not.  Community & Mission What are you currently building, protecting, or devoted to that you'd love our community to know about? I am currently devoted to growing Medicine Wombyn Cacao, a heart-centered Cacao company rooted in ethical sourcing, prayer, and remembrance. Our Cacao is shared as heart medicine, supporting people in reconnecting to themselves, their bodies, and the earth. Alongside that, I hold spaces for women, children, and community through music, movement, education, and earth-based practices. At the center of it all is the intention to bring ritual back into everyday life in a way that feels accessible, grounded, and true.
