ABOUT ME
About Sarah Evangelista
Holistic Coach | Mindfulness Teacher | Sound Healer | Creator of Soul Whispers — A Medicine Card Deck
My journey began in a home where tenderness was scarce and survival was instinct.
Born to a young mother and abandoned early by both father figures, I grew up navigating chaos, silence, and a profound sense of disconnection—from others, and from myself.
I became the caretaker early on. The one who soothed, who softened, who sacrificed. But underneath it all, I carried the aching question: “Am I safe to be me?”
As a young adult, I entered an abusive relationship that nearly cost me my life—not just once but three times. i thought i’d never escape. The violence left me shattered, ashamed. Buried under years of unresolved trauma I wore many roles—teacher, trainer, survivor—but none felt like home.
In 2012, I moved to Brazil, a decision born from the hope that my son would maintain a relationship with his father, it was there tucked away in the rural island that healing began to whisper through the cracks.
Reiki found me in 2015. And with it, a doorway to Spirit.
Alone in a foreign country, I began to reconnect—with the elements, with silence, and with the animals who visited my porch, my dreams, my soul. The fireflies, monkeys, frogs and many more —they all saw me before I remembered how to see myself.
I returned to California in 2019 and, amidst the global uncertainty, began rebuilding my life.
Through the heartbreak of a love that opened and unraveled me, I was brought to my knees—back into the sacred work of feeling, of remembering, of softening.
I dove deeply into somatics, mindfulness, Reiki, sound healing, and the sacred art of ceremony.
I began offering what I had only practiced in solitude—and to my surprise, others began to heal too.
Today, I guide with a heart both wild and wise.
I work with recovery centers, shelters, teens, and soul seekers across California. I offer sound, presence, ritual, and a place to come home to your truth.
And now, I’m humbly releasing my first medicine card deck:
Soul Whispers from the Animal Heart — a 44-card deck channeling the wisdom of Spirit and animal kin. It holds stories, rituals, journal reflections, and sacred invitations for those who are remembering who they truly are.
This work isn’t about fixing — it’s about remembering.
It’s not about being light all the time — it’s about honoring the dark with reverence.
It’s about truth. Stillness. Awakening.
And the tender, courageous journey back to love.
You don’t have to do it alone.
I’m honored to walk beside you.

FAQ
Holistic coaching is an integrative approach that works with the person as a whole – mind, body,
emotions, and spirit. Unlike conventional therapies or traditional coaching, we don’t focus only on specific
goals or problems, but on the harmonious integration of all aspects of your being to promote deep and
lasting transformation.
Benefits include greater mental clarity, emotional balance, body connection, aligned purpose, healthier
relationships, intuitive decision-making, and an overall sense of inner peace and wellbeing. Each person
experiences unique benefits based on their personal journey.
No. Holistic coaching complements but does not replace psychological therapy or medical treatments. If
you are under treatment, I recommend informing your healthcare professional about our work together
to ensure an integrated approach to your wellbeing.
Individual sessions last 60-90 minutes, depending on the chosen modality. We typically begin with a
conversation about your current situation, followed by specific guided practices (meditation, somatic
work, cacao ceremony, etc.). Group workshops may last 2-4 hours, while retreats can be a full day or
weekend.
Absolutely not! I work with people of all experience levels, from complete beginners to advanced
practitioners. All practices are adapted to your comfort level and experience.
Each person is unique. Many clients report significant changes after 3-5 sessions, but for deeper
transformations, I recommend an initial commitment of at least 8-10 sessions. I offer packages that reflect
this commitment with special discounts.

I offer both options. In-person sessions take place at select partner spaces in Orange County, while online sessions are conducted via
Zoom. Practices such as meditation, coaching and emotional release work very well online, while
modalities such as Reiki and cocoa ceremonies provide an enhanced in-person experience.
I ask that cancellations be made at least 24 hours in advance to avoid being charged for the session.
Emergencies are considered on a case-by-case basis. For workshops and retreats, please check the
specific event policy.
You can schedule directly through the “Book a Consultation” button on any page of the website, send an
email to sarahevangelista2023@gmail.com, or contact me (949) 872 7277. After the initial contact, I’ll send you a brief
questionnaire to better understand your needs before the first session.
A cacao ceremony uses ceremonial cacao (chocolate in its purest form) as a gentle heart medicine,
facilitating emotional opening, inner connection, and expansion of consciousness. Benefits include
releasing emotional blockages, increasing creativity and intuition, and a deep reconnection with your
heart.
In somatic process sessions, we work with the wisdom of the body to release stored trauma and tension.
Through breathing techniques, conscious movement, and directed attention to bodily sensations, we
facilitate the release of limiting patterns and restore the natural flow of energy in the body.
Yes, these practices are generally safe for everyone. However, there are some considerations: pregnant
women, people with epilepsy, or those with medical devices (such as pacemakers) should inform me in
advance so we can adapt the session. Sound can be particularly intense for sensitive people, but we
always work within your comfort level.
