“In reality, I feel that the Plant herself brought me into this alliance, to work together.”

I come from Quebec, Canada. I inherited Native American roots from my grandfather and have always been fascinated by indigenous culture and spirituality. I have traveled all around the world, learning from tribes in Africa, Central and South America. My passion for ancient knowledge combined with a deep call to spirituality, naturally drew me to plant medicines, and more specifically, Ayahuasca. In reality, I feel that the Plant herself brought me into this alliance, to work together.

My first experience with the medicine was with a Shipibo Maestro traveling to Canada. From that point, a series of synchronicities brought me to meet an elder Shipibo Maestro in Mexico, and I immediately knew that a path had begun. Not so long after, I started to organize ceremonies, learning from and assisting a Canadian Maestra from the same lineage, and traveled to Peru for my first Master Plant diet. Nearly five years ago, I moved to Peru to continue my apprenticeship with the Shipibo tradition. I am now based in Moyobamba, San Martin, Peru.

I have extensive teaching and facilitation skills which I developed through more than 25 years of experience facilitating and creating workshops, teachings and programs for personal growth and healing. I designed different retreat concepts, transformative workshops, plant medicine healing journeys and participated in the creation of uplifting programs for homeless individuals and mental health organizations. My approach is intuitive and heart centered and I facilitate safe spaces where oneness, harmony, joy, peace and self reflection co-exist. I traveled through Canada for almost 7 years with a service that I created called Cercle de Vie, teaching about Indigenous wisdom in schools and sharing with teachers how to apply tools to induce more harmony in a scholastic or organizational context. I am always looking for new, innovative, and respectful ways to connect various ancestral teachings, spiritual knowledge, and scientific discoveries to shift consciousness beyond what seems possible. I play music, sing, and am passionate about well-being, plants, and healing.
