Camila Romero is an indigenous mother, traditional healer, birthworker, holistic massage therapist, herbalist, teacher, and forever student of the Earth and the Plants—a bridge between worlds and traditions. She comes from a lineage of traditional healers, land tenders, midwives, teachers, nurses, and caregivers, she honors and learns from the sacred body of knowledge of the Kaingang, Guarani, and Xokleng peoples of the Atlantic Forest in Southern Brazil. Migrating from South to North America, she continues to learn from the land while weaving ancestral knowledge and intercultural traditions across the continent. Mila tends to and creates sacred ceremonial spaces that invite reflection on our relationship to the land and to our ancestors—reforesting our trees and spirits, nurturing seeds of sustainable communities rooted in kinship, care for Mother Earth, and our future generations.

She is the creator of Do Centro da Mãe Terra, an itinerant Indigenous Healing Arts center dedicated to preserving the wisdom and knowledge of medicinal plants and ancestral healing practices of the Southern Atlantic Forest, with presence in the US (Philadelphia area) and Brazil. The center is guided by intergenerational knowledge that’s passed down through generations and lived community experience grounded in reproductive justice, and trauma-informed care, offering whole-person healing—spiritual, emotional, mental, and physical—especially for communities navigating systemic hardship. Committed to making traditional healing accessible, Do Centro da Mae Terra works to restore autonomy and sovereignty of traditional ways of living by cultivating community-care rituals, deepening the relationship between healing and nature through circles, ceremonies, courses, and shared experiences that carry the memory of the ancestors forward.
