The Mate Chronicles

Natasha Nua

For multi-hyphenate Argentinian artist, Natasha Nua, yerba mate isn’t just an energy drink, it’s a ritual. A spark of connection, clarity, and conscious action. Join Natasha in her debut podcast, The Mate Chronicles, where she shares this magical “tea” with her inspiring guests: artists, changemakers, visionaries, and the beautifully chaotic humans shaping our world. Listeners join these conversations to explore the current times: art, AI, politics, climate change, spirituality, technology, business and what it truly means to stay conscious and inspired in chaotic times. Through honest dialogue, humor, ritual, and a bit of messiness, the show offers tools, perspectives, and grounded wisdom anyone can carry into their own life and creative journey. Because the world is wild, community is medicine, and sometimes we all just need a shared cup and a moment of inspiration to keep going. We’re all figuring it out… one sip at a time.

    Prologue: The Spirit of Yerba Mate

    Yerba mate changed my life and it might change yours too. 🧉 Welcome to The Mate Chronicles. I'm Natasha Nua, Argentine-American actress, writer, producer, and mate magician. In this prologue I share why I started this podcast, where yerba mate really comes from, the sacred ritual behind it, and why this ancient plant has been my portable home across every city and identity crisis. In this episode, I touch on the origins of yerba mate and the Guaraní people of Paraguay and Argentina, the sacred ritual of cebado: gourd, bombilla, and the cebador, The moon goddess Jasy myth and the spirit of generosity, Animism, why I feel at home nowhere and how mate grounds me, chronos, and ultimately... why I created The Mate Chronicles. Whether you discovered yerba mate through a can or grew up doing mateadas in South America, this podcast is your portal deeper.  If you're feeling overwhelmed, uninspired, or like time is running out, this podcast will bring you back to yourself. 🌿 Sponsored by Erva. www.drinkerva.com
