From Ivy League to the jungle of Costa Rica: Melissa Stangl shares the epic tale of how she came to co-found Soltara Healing Center–an Ayahuasca retreat center. After spending years working in scientific labs and corporate offices, Melissa realized the healing and transformative potential of working responsibly with psychedelics and plant medicine. In 2015, she consciously chose to leave corporate America and moved to live and work in the Amazon jungle. A few years later she and co-founder Daniel Cleland would found Soltara Healing Center.
I had the pleasure of living down at Soltara for 3 months and recording 13 episodes; this is the final episode of the Ayahuasca Soltara Series.
