Why I Created BORN FOR THIS: A Message from My Heart to Yours

When Everything Burns, What Remains?

At the beginning of this year, we evacuated from the LA fires with only what we could carry.

Standing outside, watching the smoke rise, feeling the Earth herself crying out in pain, something profound shifted in me. The question wasn't "why is this happening?" The question was: "What is my place in this chaos?"

As a teacher, as a leader, as a friend, as a sister… but most importantly, as a human being living through these times of profound transformation.

The Birth of BORN FOR THIS

In that moment of displacement and uncertainty, when normalcy was stripped away and only the essential remained, I heard the clearest message:

We need to remember that we were born for these times.

Not born to suffer through them. Not born to be victims of them. But born with the exact medicine, wisdom, and power needed to transform through them.

That's when BORN FOR THIS was conceived, not as another program, but as a lifeline. A daily practice. A coming home to ourselves when home itself might be burning.

What BORN FOR THIS Is

BORN FOR THIS is a 24-day container of morning spiritual practice that grounds you in indigenous, earth-based wisdom. Every single morning for 24 days, we gather (virtually) to:

  • Remember who we are beneath the chaos

  • Ground into the Earth's unshakeable presence

  • Practice ancestral technologies for navigating uncertainty

  • Build powerful certainty from within

  • Connect with community choosing transformation over terror

This is not about bypassing our pain or pretending everything is fine. This is about finding our power WITHIN the chaos, not despite it.

The Sacred Mathematics: Your Healing Multiplies

Here's what makes my heart sing about this program:

100% of profits become scholarships for others.

Every single dollar of profit from BORN FOR THIS gets channeled directly into scholarship funds, ensuring that those who need this medicine but lack the resources can access it throughout the year.

When you join BORN FOR THIS, you're not just investing in your own grounding and power—you're literally paying it forward so someone else can receive what they need, when they need it most.

Your transformation becomes their opportunity. Your healing creates space for theirs.

Why 24 Days?

24 days is the minimum time needed to:

  • Establish a new neural pathway

  • Break through resistance patterns

  • Create lasting change in your nervous system

  • Build genuine community bonds

  • Experience at least one full lunar cycle together

This isn't a workshop you attend once and forget. This is a practice that rewires how you meet uncertainty.

The Urgency of Now

I don't say this to create false scarcity. I say this because the world isn't waiting for us to be ready. The chaos is here. The uncertainty is now. And so must be our response.

A Personal Promise

When we had to evacuate, I grabbed three things: my family, my medicine bundle, and my certainty that we are more powerful than we know.

BORN FOR THIS is me sharing all three with you.

This is not just another program. This is a response to these times. This is medicine for this moment. This is me saying: "I see you, I feel you, and we're going to get through this together, not just surviving, but transformed."



Final Words

The fires taught me something profound: When everything external burns away, what remains is what's real. Our connection. Our community. Our unshakeable knowing that we were born for this.

Not born for the suffering… born for the transformation.

Join us. Monday. Let's remember together who we really are.

With fierce love and unshakeable faith,

Xóchitl Ashé

Xóchitl Ashe

Xochitl (pronounced “So-chil”) Kusikuy Ashe is an Afro-Quechua Aymara medicine woman, representing the fifth generation of her family’s healing lineage. For the past three decades, Xochitl has been sharing her wisdom as a respected teacher, guide, author, and community builder, offering retreats, workshops, mentorships, and ceremonies across the world. At just 16 Xochitl became the first woman in five generations to be initiated into her Peruvian ancestral healing traditions. For the past 30 years, she worked with her godfather, a Mazatec medicine man skilled in the ancient practice of healing with Teonanácatl (psilocybin mushrooms). Blending ancestral wisdom with Western trauma-informed therapies, such as internal family systems, Xochitl bridges ancient healing traditions with modern wellness practices. Beyond education, she is a passionate preserver of Indigenous teachings, an expert in plant spirit communication, and a devoted advocate for honoring sacred mushrooms. Through her unwavering commitment to these sacred practices, Xochitl not only helps individuals embark on joyful and empowered healing journeys but also ensures that these ancient traditions remain alive, relevant, and accessible for generations to come, so that we may remember that we live in a magical world.
