Hola amor!
I’m Cindy (she/they), a queer Latina intimacy coach and educator with roots in El Salvador and Guatemala. I help people reconnect with pleasure, power and cultural wisdom — without shame (sin verguenza). My work blends sexuality education, decolonial healing, and acestral knowledge to create affirming spaces for LGBTQ+ and BIPOC communities to explore intimacy, identity, and connection. Whether I’m guiding a workshop, hosting a retreat, or building bilingual resources, I do it with heart, humor and the deep belief that our desire is sacred and our joy is revolutionary.
My Story
I didn’t grow up with language for pleasure, boundaries or queerness. I grew up with silence — passed down through generations who carried more than they ever had the chance to release. As a queer Latina raised in a culturally conservative home, I learned early that desire was dangerous, and identity was something you either erased or fought for.
I was raised in a household shaped by silence, survival and shame — not because my family didn’t love me, but because they never had the tools to talk about about queerness, desire, or emotional safety. As a queer Latina with roots in El Salvador and Guatemala, I inherited the weight of colonization, religion and generational trauma — all of it tangled up in how I was taught to relate to my body and my worth.
And yet, even without the language for it, I always knew there had to be something more. Something beyond the guilt. Something truer than just surviving. My healing didn’t come in one big breakthrough — it came in phases. In unlearning. In choosing pleasure. In reclaiming parts of myself that were never wrong to begin with.
I became an intimacy coach and educator because I wanted to give others what I never had growing up: honest, affirming, culturally grounded guidance on how to come home to their bodies and desires. I do this work for the ones who never felt seen, who carry shame that isn’t theirs, who are ready to stop surviving and start feeling everything.
This isn’t my job — it’s the work I believe in. My story is still unfolding, and every workshop, retreat, and conversation is part of a collective healing that I hope ripples outward. Because when one of us remembers our worth, it gives the rest of us permission to do the same.
