From Stories to Soul and How It All Started

My name is Renata Barradas. I was born in Mexico City in 1988 and raised in a home where wonder was encouraged, where books lined the walls, the sacred was woven into everyday life, and curiosity was encouraged. My mother gently introduced me to spiritual and metaphysical teachings, while my father taught me to love what I do and to marvel at the world around me. From them, I learned to live with gratitude, to care for life with reverence, and to see the divine in both the grand and the simple.

Curiosity has always been the compass guiding my journey. I’ve had the joy of living in several countries, of exploring different cultures, and of being touched by the stories and wisdom of people from all walks of life. Each encounter has added richness and depth to my understanding of the world.

This thirst for connection and meaning has shaped my path as a writer, communicator, and creative. I have been writing and creating content in my professional journey for over a decade. Yet, I always knew there was something deeper calling to be expressed. So, I decided it was time to write about the topics that piqued my passion the most and put my talents in the service of others. After a long journey inward, I discovered—among many other things—that the intersection between my talents, skills, and a higher purpose lies in giving voice to the topics addressed at The Voice of Gaia.

Exploring The Sacred Web of Universal Truths

This lifelong passion for learning led me to explore the vast universe of consciousness, spirituality, and mysticism. I’ve studied and experienced traditions like yoga, Ayurveda, Shamanism, astrology, tarot, Kabbalah, sacred geometry, Buddhism, and more. What I’ve discovered is this: all paths speak of the same essential truths — and remarkably, many of these truths are echoed and supported by modern science.

We’ve been raised in a paradigm that often separates the spiritual from the rational. My mission is to help bridge that gap—to show others how science and spirituality are not opposites but partners, working together to illuminate the sacred patterns of life. I want to demystify the mystical, to present it in an accessible and beautiful way so others feel invited to explore, remember, and awaken the divine spark within themselves.

Awakening Through Synchronicity, Remembering Who I Am

This calling became profoundly clear during my time living in the United Arab Emirates. There, a series of synchronistic events and healing encounters helped me shed layers of conditioning and truly remember who I am. Through deep inner work — in both individual and group settings — my heart and mind aligned, and I stepped into the path I had always sensed but hadn’t yet named.

During this time, I’ve encountered generous souls who shared their wisdom and light with me, each encounter guiding me closer to my truth and higher purpose. Their gifts awakened in me the deep desire to support others on their journey of remembrance — to help them reconnect with the divine power that lies within.

Holding Light, Spaces of Healing and Remembrance

To prepare myself to walk with others on this path, I’ve studied and become certified in a variety of healing arts:

Reiki • Sound Healing • Biodecoding • ThetaHealing Kinesiology • Access Consciousness (Access Bars)

I now see my role as a channel of light in many forms — whether through sharing knowledge, guiding others with my hands and heart, or simply holding space with presence. My mission is to create luminous spaces of healing and remembrance — spaces where people, through their five senses, can reconnect with their inner truth and the subtle dimensions of being, reclaiming their power and essence in harmony with themselves, their surroundings, and Mother Earth.

Living with Intention and Devotion: Service, Practice, Creativity & Remembering

At the heart of all I do are four guiding pillars:

Service & practice

Service. Serving others through each act and offering those acts to the divine.

Practice. Anchoring ourselves through daily spiritual practice. The key is in the practice—no shortcuts. Through practice, we return to our centre.

creativity

Infusing consciousness into every act of creation and seeing every act as an act of creation. Everything can be sacred when done with intention, from preparing a meal to starting a movement.

remembering

The answers are within. Remembering our divinity, our connection to Gaia, and humbly returning to the wisdom of the Earth.

A Space for Awakening and Where My Journey Meets Yours

This vision lives through The Voice of Gaia. It is a space where I weave together the threads of spirituality, Earth wisdom, ancient traditions, healing frequencies, and healing frequencies. It’s where I share my journey — and invite you to walk alongside me in your own awakening.

Through online courses, blog posts, gatherings, and offerings like Gaia’s Threads, I hope to inspire beauty, remembrance, and real change — the kind that starts within and ripples outward into the world.

Thank you for being here.

Let us listen deeply, remember gently, and honour the divine in all things — together.
