We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Nova Mosaico a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Nova, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. It’s always helpful to hear about times when someone’s had to take a risk – how did they think through the decision, why did they take the risk, and what ended up happening. We’d love to hear about a risk you’ve taken.
Hello Family 🕊 Thank you for my second interview, as much has shifted in my life since discussing my offerings last autumn.
I am stepping into my next evolution. Here we go!
For some background ..
My husband and I left our traditional jobs in June of 2021 to embark on a soul quest for our own retreat service. We learned to traverse the landscape of being our own boss, and have made our living as mentors. All of the money we made was funneled into traveling about the U. S. in our car, meeting with potential investors in our soul project.
We have done work exchanges, odd jobs, & whatever we needed to do to stay afloat. But we realized we needed a quantum leap .. so I bought our plane tickets to Costa Rica .. the place I knew our retreat service would take off.
Here, we have acclimated to an off grid, jungle environment where we are in our final push of funding (startup of 50k) for a cold plunge service to offer before & after master plant medicine journeys.
It is a dream come true!
It all was birthed from a place of self sourcing our power, and not waiting for the world to be ready for us. We were ready, and that’s what mattered most.
Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.
Today, my name is Nova Mosaico. Somehow you are reading about me in this intricate web of life! Thank you for your presence with my offerings.

I also have the capacity to create mystical digital portraits, I have termed, Embodied Masterpieces. Using my skills in photoshop to create unique worlds from ordinary photos.
How’d you meet your business partner?
My business partner / husband and I met while working at a Wilderness Therapy Program where we provided safety & mentorship for last-resort teenagers. The program was located in the desert backcountry where we lived primitively, to provide experiential therapy for our clientele. We made our food on the fire, that we had brought to life with harvested sticks & stones. We slept in the dirt without tents, even in the dead of winter. We worked 16 days straight in a high-intensity environment which peeled the layers of comfort away .. until I saw the incredible human he was in the midst of turmoil. There was no doubt in my mind that I could trust him with my life, and with the future.
If you could go back, would you choose the same profession, specialty, etc.?
I absolutely would be in the business of humans. Ever since I was a child, I felt a strong pull to be of service to others. Even when I struggle myself, my only relief is getting outside my own head & into my heart of service.
