Welcome. I am Carolina Casas Cordero, the founder of Habitar el Camino.

My journey into self-growth and spirituality has been a lifelong exploration that began in my childhood and has spanned across continents. I was born and raised in Santiago, Chile, before moving to Canada, where I lived for half of my life. Driven by a profound passion for the outdoors and the natural world, I studied forestry and environmental engineering.

My curiosity about the inner workings of the human spirit has always run parallel to my love for nature. This calling grew significantly stronger during my time working alongside Indigenous communities in Canada, which profoundly shaped my perspective on connection and healing.

Eventually, life called me to an even greater adventure: a five-year journey traveling from Alaska down to Chile with my husband. This trip was a major life event and a deep period of personal growth. Along the way, I spent two transformative years working with a shaman in Guatemala, an experience that deeply anchored my understanding of spiritual development.

Today, through Habitar el Camino, my mission is to accompany you on your path. I firmly believe that the answers we seek already exist within our inner selves. When we are met with a safe space, when we have someone who truly sees us with compassion, we are able to process our difficulties and heal in a deeply sound, lasting way.

I am here to hold that space for you, facilitating your journey toward calm, presence, and your own inner power.
