Hello Beautiful.
My name is Jasmine Alicia Carter.
And Sacred Woman™ is the culmination of over 8 years of exploration and healing in the spiritual, wellness, and holistic fields.
My brand is my sacred hearth and a jewel in my heart that shines brightly for all who seek to connect with their true, deepest and rawest feminine selves.
I am a woman of Italian, North-European, Latin-American, and Nigerian descent, currently residing in the vibrant city of Barcelona with my loving husband, Hri Surya Cillo, a gifted meditation guide, and our two beautiful young sons Ravi and Mani.
From the moment of my conception...
I was conceived during the Gulf War in Saudi Arabia in 1991 and born on a U.S. Airforce base in Virginia. My early life unfolded within rigid military family dynamics, and after my parents’ divorce when I was seven, I was raised in Italy by a strict, emotionally unavailable mother. Without my father, I learned to navigate the world alone, carrying a profound sense of emptiness and disconnection.
The taboo around womanhood and pleasure loomed deeply in my lineage. Periods were presented as a curse, sexuality cloaked in shame, and my body became a battleground—scrutinized, controlled, and never enough. I absorbed the message that pleasure must be earned, while men were portrayed as inherently untrustworthy.
These beliefs, coupled with an intense sexual drive, led me into patterns of self-hatred, disassociation, misaligned relationships, and illness. My teenage years, instead of joy, were clouded by hopelessness. I had never experienced an orgasm until age 21, when I used a synthetic vibrator. By then I was battling yeast infections, PCOS, endometriosis, HPV, and debilitating menstrual pain.
My past is one of struggle and survival, yet every chapter has shaped the woman I am today.
Spiritual Journey
Over the past decade, I have been blessed to dive into the depths of inner healing through powerful and rare authentic spiritual lineages.
From the ancient teachings of Vajrayana Buddhism and Dzogchen to the Shipibo wisdom of the Amazon, I explored Kashmiri Shaivism, Nei Qi Gong, Shaktipat, Chinese medicine, Taoism, and Ayurveda.
Under the Dzogchen and Vajrayana tradition, I trained with Rishi Choni Dorje, a disciple of Adzom Rinpoche—one of Tibet’s last living masters, renowned for embodying teachings so profoundly that he could place his limbs in rock, produce Amrita from the depths of his realization, and awaken your true nature simply by gazing into your eyes.
Rishi was my primary teacher until his passing, and his son, now my husband, continues to guide me in this lineage.
I trained with Lama Tsultrim Allione, receiving the Chöd initiation, Feeding Your Demons, and undertaking solitary practices in caves and cemeteries.
These teachings of death and liberation as central themes, have since infused everything I create, including much of my menstrual art.
Alongside these traditional practices, as a curious and explorative being that I am, I embraced modern spirituality and holistic methods, including Neo Tantra and contemporary approaches like Somatic Therapy and Art Therapy.
I eventually turned to the realms of Epigenetics, Holistic Nutrition, and Neuroscience too.
All these diverse - yet so interconnected traditions and disciplines - have shaped my journey and my ability to hold space for others, merging the timeless wisdom of ancient teachings with the evolving needs of the modern world.
Menstrual Art Movement
In 2016, during an Ayahuasca ceremony, I channeled the practice of Menstrual Art—a pivotal moment that launched my path to womb healing and sacred feminine work.
This ritual unlocked and led me to profound healing and a deeper, unshakable embrace of my femininity and mysteries of the womb.
Since then my work has resonated worldwide, going viral on social media under the eyes of millions, and appearing in global media, television, and international radio.
I've collaborated with impactful brands like Its August and Girl Boss, helping shift the narrative on periods and feminine wellness.
My work has been used as the foundation for university theses and inspires a diverse community of doulas, birth workers, and doctors, sparking both support and - of course - much controversy.
I founded the non-profit Menstrual Art Movement, counting now thousands of women creating period art together, uniting creativity, healing, empowerment and activism in a powerful celebration of feminine health and sacredness.
Crystal Healing
In 2017, I skeptically purchased a Jade Yoni Egg, intrigued by its promise to help me reconnect with my body and experience internal vaginal orgasms. And to my BIG surprise, within just ten days of consistent practice, I had my first internal vaginal orgasm.
That moment marked the beginning of a beautiful and vibrant awakening within me, and from then on, my journey only grew richer and more juicy and fertile.
My passion for the Yoni Egg became so profound that it was the only crystal I sold for several years!
I soon discovered Yoni Wands, which deepened my connection to pleasure and my body. As I released tensions, numbness, and longstanding pains, I felt a blooming and resurgence of life within me.
Inspired and driven by so much enthusiasm and gratitude, I began to share these tools with my community while prioritizing ethical and sustainable sourcing of crystals, that is a cause that has become very dear to my heart.
Motherhood
Both my children, Mani and Ravi, were born at home, cradled in love, family and the sacred. Their births were surrounded by warmth, ancestral presence, and the hum of ancient lineages. Through them, my heartbeat became the pulse of my work. They are at the center of my path. Motherhood is often the invisible thread in spiritual work, rarely named, rarely seen, but undeniably powerful. It is filled with unseen labor, quiet sacrifices, and everyday initiations that hold the future of humanity. It doesn’t always make it to the feed or the spotlight, but it is the foundation beneath it all. My children continue to teach me what truly matters: the wellbeing of the Earth, of families, of future generations. The love we share is the legacy I want to leave behind.

Today
And we arrive here.
My journey into womb work runs deeper and deeper as I also pursued a specialised training in Womb Continuum Care through Ma School - allowing me to serve the full spectrum of womanhood with both hands-on and hands-in support, a form of body work attuned to every stage of a Woman's life.
With all my background in holistic nutrition, sex education, spiritual work, I bring a holistic approach to nurturing women’s health, emphasizing the interplay of body, nourishment, lifestyle, spirit and sexuality.
Today, as I walk this healing path, I remain deeply committed to my own growth while holding space for others.
I am devoted to remain curious and humble, continuing to gather wisdom along the way to evolve both personally and in service to my community.
I am immensely grateful to all my teachers, my life experiences, past and present, who have helped shape my work, ethos, and sacred expression in this world.
Education
My path has been shaped by years of devotional practice, ceremony, motherhood, art, and intimate apprenticeship with authentic wisdom holders across Tantra, Dzogchen, Vajrayana Buddhism, plant medicine, and womb-based healing. I live immersed in living lineages—my husband, a direct recipient of multiple transmissions, and our extended family of curanderos, teachers, and healers are part of my everyday life. These traditions move through our home and our rituals.
My authority comes from embodied service. I’ve held multiple hundreds of women through rites of passage, grief, birth, erotic awakening, and creative reclamation. And Menstrual Art, the path I midwifed, is not a modality that can be learned in institutions. It is ancestral, primal, and born through the body.
The work I offer is trusted by doulas, artists, and leaders because it is lived, because it transforms.

I’ve had the privilege of working with hundreds of women around the world—artists, mothers, leaders, healers—and every session, every circle, every story has refined the wisdom I carry. I am endlessly humbled by the body’s capacity to guide, reveal, and transform when we create the space to truly listen.
