"Plants are doorways to the heart and to ourselves."

Mariah Gannessa reminds us of this simple truth as she joins us from the jungles of Costa Rica, where she has spent the last decade immersed in the healing cultures of the Amazon.

As the founder of the educational platform Four Visions and the nonprofit Magic Fund, Mariah serves as a bridge between native tribes and the rest of the world, advocating for plant medicine, native land conservation, culture, wisdom, conscious commerce and symbiosis.

We discuss

  • Mariah’s path of self-discovery and the initiations that led her to learn plant medicine with sacred elders in Colombia
  • How she found her purpose and established Four Visions in partnership with 15 indigenous communities across South America.
  • Our inherent responsibility as humans to honor the plants, nature, and indigenous communities
  • Mariah’s work with yagé
  • Different methods of plant healing + diagnostics
  • How to integrate plant medicine journeys with integrity
  • Discernment around plant medicine ceremonies, facilitators, “shamans” and red flags
  • Ayni, the spirit of sacred reciprocity
