We had the good fortune of connecting with Natalie Palomarez and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Natalie, any advice for those thinking about whether to keep going or to give up?
As soon as I read this question, what comes to mind is the hilarious scene in the show “Friends” when Ross is moving apartments, and he begins to yell, “Pivot, Piv-OT.”

From my perspective, you continue forward even in times of difficulty. However, are you self-aware, observant, and intuitively aligned enough to understand how the Universe is assisting you through challenging times? Without getting too complicated, the Universe gives you clues and opportunities to take action if you’re aware enough.

You have an idea to begin working towards an ideal way to live for a reason. It comes down to understanding energy, how the Universe shows up for you to align with who you truly are, and what you are here to do through your individuality.

What is the energy or higher consciousness revealing to you when you’ve hit a wall? Could your business idea, creative expression, etc., no longer align with your uniqueness? Perhaps it’s time to pivot rather than ditch it.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I came to a profound understanding and knowing that we are spiritual beings having a human experience. We come here to evolve and have a physical experience, but many of us forget our connection to Divine Intelligence. My mission is to assist you in your spiritual awakening.   Individuals are waking up to their shadow, and I’m here to coach you through understanding that calling of the souls awakening, embracing your shadow, and learning to be at peace in your human experience.

Through my talents, education, abilities, and Astrology passion, I guide you toward remembering your Divine Connection. I also help you to explore what I like to call the 5 Keys to Heaven on Earth, as they assist you in exploring a deeper self-discovery.

The other area that keeps me busy is creating a space for individuals to understand they aren’t alone in this human experience, just on an individual journey. Therefore I have teamed up with a Yoga Instructor from Colorado, who is my cousin, Chloe. She and I are developing retreats called The Purusa Project, that will be located around the world, where we will teach the Mind, Body, Soul connection. We hope to reach as many as we can in understanding they are supported through their human journey.


If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I would begin with, let’s get’em fed. Depending on the time of day, I would take them to Mercado San Augustin or the Annex. Both locations give you amazing options for every part of the day. I would get a coffee at Presta, maybe a tiny donut at La Estrellas Bakery, and or an amazing Burro from Seis and chill in their courtyard to catch up a bit. If we’re craving a delicious snack, we’d walk over to the Annex to Beaut Burger, who’s Beer Battered Cauli bites and Fried Green Beans are things I dream about. While we’re there, we’d shop and stay for a beer at Westbound.

I’d take my friend to the Degrazia Art Gallery sometime during their visit. While there, I’d talk more about my late Nana, Delia Figueroa, who is featured there at the studios. She and Ted Degrazia worked together, and she put his artwork onto fabric, clothing or dolls. So I would definitely show her work off and my family roots.

I would have to make sure we were able to make it to Sabino Canyon for a hike and do the Seven Falls trail. Afterward, I take them to Renee’s and have some mouth-watering Pizza and salads.

During the week, my friend and I would visit my dear friend’s Tea House, Scented Leaf, and have one of the amazing teas there, I don’t have a favorite because they’re all amazing, and their tea combos are the best. We could enjoy either the downtown location and look at all the murals being painted around the area, or go to the University location where we could walk around Campus.

I would also take them to my friend’s coffee truck, Calle Coffee, before we go meditate at Rio Vista Natural Resource park. After a little time outdoors and meditation, we may be hungry, which would take us to Tuk-Tuk for amazing Thai Food.

If we had the time, I would take them down to Bisbee to check out the quirky, fun town and do some ghost tours. If we didn’t have the time to head that way, I would definitely take them through Gates Pass around Sunset so they can remember the magic of the desert. Then head over to La Chingada Cocina for some good eats, and drinks with a fun atmosphere.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
The Divine Consciousness, and spiritual guides are what or who I’m eternally grateful for because I know it all begins there. However, it takes a village to raise a person. It’s a collective of individuals and experiences that have helped to reveal who I really am, from my parents, siblings, husband and daughter, to teachers and mentors. I’m especially grateful for those who’ve challenged me, such as bullies, supportive and unsupportive friends, to all the painful relationships in my past. I also have such gratitude for my physical body and all the health battles it has gone through because it showed me how strong and resilient I am. Spiritual Leaders such as Eckart Tolle, Louise Hay and Matt Khan have given me a space to internally heal. Everything is a gift and a gifted lesson to help our evolution, and I am forever grateful for everyone and everything that has and will be a part of my journey.
