In our latest episode, you'll meet Eric Van Der Hoeff – a man whose journey from fruit cultivation expert to psychedelic retreat facilitator is nothing short of remarkable. After a single intense "psilohuasca" experience in 2018, Eric left behind three decades of business success to dedicate his life to guiding others through transformative plant medicine experiences.

In This Episode You'll Discover:

➡️The shocking intensity of traditional shamanic training (80% of ceremonies involved purging from medicine so strong it defied description) ➡️How ancient peoples discovered ayahuasca's precise recipe from 80,000 Amazon species – a feat that staggers modern understanding ➡️The difference between tourist ayahuasca experiences and authentic shamanic practice ➡️Why Eric believes psilocybin is the better starting point for most Westerners ➡️The profound dreams and plant communications that changed his understanding of consciousness forever

This isn't just about psychedelics – it's about the courage to completely reinvent your life in service of something greater. It's about bridging ancient wisdom with modern understanding. And it's about one man's relentless quest to separate authentic spiritual experience from wishful thinking.
