Güliz Hızıroğlu

Founder of the International Ingredient Sourcing Company “Connect Naturals” and recently launched Cacao brand “Kuri Fine Cacao”, Güliz has rested her heart and soul in immense love for cacao, plant medicine, nature, and holistic healing. Her approach is rooted in a deep passion for cacao and her strong connection with the spirit of mother cacao medicine. Her intention is to bring cacao’s sacred Indigenous wisdom and healing properties to the modern world while also fostering a holistic and regenerative lifestyle. Her personal journey with mother Cacao medicine and Yoga draws upon 15 years of traveling around the world, living with indigenous communities of the Amazonian jungles of the Andes, practicing permaculture and sustainable living, and studying plant medicine from indigenous shamans. She has been working on balance the mind, heart, and the gut to create a deeper connection to oneself, others, and all existence around us through the sacred teachings she has received from mother cacao.
