Jessie

Jessie Duke (she/her) is a ceremonialist & entrepreneur dedicated to fostering connection & openness that enable people to uniquely contribute what is theirs to contribute to the world. Motivated by her own continual journey of sickness, healing, contraction, & expansion, she is at her best when serving a cup of cacao & creating space for others to slow down & drop in.

As the founder of "Bendichas Manos" (‘blessed hands’ in Ladino), a ceremonial cacao company, Jessie partners with Mayan women's collective Ruk’u’x’Ulew, & encourages the recognition of the power of our hands as extensions of our hearts.

Jessie advocates for incorporating personalized ritual with cacao to create even one small moment for embodied safety, intention, rooting & grounding in everyday life. She emphasizes the importance of centering, slowing down, & listening to enhance capacity for cultivating deeper relationships with oneself, loved ones, ancestors, communities, & the natural world.
