ETP 29// Earth Medicine as Healer: Awakening to our Sacred Connection
ETP #29
☾
"Working with plants offers us a portal into a cosmic library of wisdom that guides us, nourishes us, and reminds us that we are part of something much larger than ourselves.”
⎯Mariah Gannessa
In this episode of Enter the Portal, I’m thrilled to welcome Mariah Ganessa of Four Visions Tribe (@fourvisionstribe), a medicine woman, storyteller, and cultural bridge-builder.
Mariah has spent over a decade immersed in the healing traditions of South America, working closely with indigenous communities to share ancestral wisdom and plant medicine practices with the world.
Together, we explore themes of reconnecting with nature, building bridges across cultures, and embracing the principles of sacred reciprocity. Mariah opens up about her personal journey with plant medicine and her mission to support indigenous artisans and wisdom keepers through Four Visions Tribe.
If you’re drawn to explore plant medicine, deepen your connection to nature, or learn how to honor and protect indigenous traditions, this episode offers an inspiring look into a life of service, stewardship, and spiritual growth.
