Hey there, I’m Samantha Magnolia (they/she), founder of The Altar of Us by Ìyá Wellness, a sanctuary for embodied healing, ancestral reclamation, and collective liberation.

As a Rootworker and Medicine Carrier, I guide people on the path of healing and remembrance in reconnecting with their innate wisdom, ancestral inheritance, and spiritual authority. Through a unique integration of somatic healing, ritual and plant medicine, I help clients move beyond survival patterns, heal intergenerational wounds, and cultivate lives rooted in purpose, pleasure, and sovereignty.

My work is informed by an extensive study of the body, consciousness, and healing — shaped by years of accompanying people through birth and other non-ordinary states, alongside an ongoing exploration of physiology, psychology, metaphysics, and plant medicine. My eight years of parenting and experience as a parenting coach deepened my work in inner child healing and shadow work, strengthening my capacity to guide others through expanded awareness and embodied integration.

Everything I offer is rooted in a devotion to humanity, the wisdom of my lineage, and the principles of Sankofa: remembering who we are so we can reclaim our power and reimagine our future. My mission is to support people in ending cycles of disconnection and powerlessness, returning to themselves as their most trusted source of knowing, and creating lives that reflect their deepest truth.
