A visionary multihyphenate. An encouraging speaker. A healing facilitator. An experienced producer. A heart-centered writer. A conscious creator. A spiritual guide.
I am Jocelyn Valencia
My work is my play and my play is my purpose. I believe that as I grow and evolve, my purpose grows and evolves along with me but there is an underlying force influencing all that I do - this force is a passion to guide others back home to their true Self and make the world a softer place. I am passionate about inspiring you to turn inward, encouraging you to practice self-awareness, and empowering you to believe in yourself. And I am passionate about designing experiences that matter with brands that care about intention and impact. I fulfill these passions by consciously creating in front and behind the camera, on and off the mic.
The Start Of A Fulfilling Career
In late 2014, after returning to AZ from a music journalism internship in LA and in the midst of becoming the first to minor in “Hip-Hop Cultures” at the University of Arizona, I felt inspired to produce a charity event that honored all the elements of Hip-Hop. This successful venture aligned me with my business partner Pike and our union founded the Tucson Hip-Hop Festival - an annual, cultural festival that’s given a platform to every element of Hip-Hop and hundreds of up-and-coming artists across the country. The success of my own festival led me to begin consulting other festivals, which then led me to develop my own creative agency. From here, I began touring nationwide (and developing my nationwide network of creative professionals), providing production, experiential, strategy, and creative services for some of my favorite brands and incredible clients I’ve had and still have the honor of working with.
Expansion Of The Heart
The heart of co-founding my festival for me was and remains to create a safe, celebratory space for a culture and artists of that culture to be respected, seen, and heard. And as my entrepreneurship led me further into live production, I noted the presence of this heart expand in all that I was involved in. This presence gained much light when I began to conceptualize and produce successful experiential activations that incorporated wellness and self/social awareness. When 2020 put a pause to live production, I leaned into the stillness to discover how I’d like to move forward and create safe spaces that continued to activate wellness and awareness beyond live production. This pause birthed a clear vision that honors my heart, my gifts, and respects my transformative nature. This vision is still unfolding before me but has already given life to my podcast, my channel, my meditations, my booking, and my shop.
My Initial & Ongoing Awakening Spiritual Journey
I remember watering the flowers in our front yard as a little girl and my dad came out to gently lecture me on how to water them properly. I’ll never forget this moment of spiritual awakening, as he expanded on how flowers feel just like humans do. Since then, I never saw life and all living beings the same.
I’ve always been hyper-aware and sensitive of my surroundings, of energy, of presence. Having clairvoyance, clairsentience, and claircongnizance as a young human who didn’t have the conscious awareness or tools to properly manage these spiritual gifts caused me to feel unexplainably different and often led me into solitude. As I journeyed through life and experienced trauma through child and teen-hood, I began to realize I am a gifted alchemist, as I not only continuously overcame the trauma but alchemized them into experiences that ultimately empowered and enlightened me. I intuitively felt that these experiences in my life were gifting me the opportunity to not only be able to relate to people walking many different paths in life but to also be able to guide people back home to their true selves.
It wasn’t until recent years, when I truly began to intentionally manifest my dreams, pave my unique path in purpose, and devote my Self to Spirit, that I leaned into and confidently claimed my gifts. I am a certified spiritual practitioner, as well as certified breathwork teacher, meditation teacher, and yin yoga teacher. I am an intuitive channel with psychic abilities passed down from my indigenous ancestors which include: clairvoyance, clairsentience, claircognizance, and clairaudience. I am a curandera that specializes in platicas (heart-to-heart conversations), a light-worker and shadow-worker, an alchemist, and visionary. My gifts grant me the honor of being a spiritual guide. I give thanks to being divinely guided, supported, and protected.
