Gretchen shares her story of Healing PTSD with Ayahuasca

Franks awakening & personal shift with the plant medicine path began long ago, but the calling to work with and serve others in their transformation began in fall of 2019.

He sat with a close friend in a plant medicine retreat who was at his lowest point, grappling for decades with the wrath of alcohol addiction, a progressively deteriorating, isolating family situation and encounters with the law. He experienced an incredible transformation through the guidance of the teacher plant and was healed. His sharing of elation and growth prompted a powerful calling in me, and suddenly knew I must help others in need and gently guide them with intention along the transformative plant medicine path.

This is why He founded Trifecta Wellness.

He is a certified Being True to You Addiction Recovery and Psycho-Spiritual Integration coach. He loves working with the Enneagram, in a somatic and bodily context to help people set intention and integrate along their wellness journey.

 Through his medicine work, I has had the great opportunity to meet multitudes of people that have healed or are healing from anxiety, depression, traumas, limiting self-beliefs and a plethora of other dis-eases.

Dana Harvey, founder of The Flourish Academy, psychedelics and microdosing educator and guide, knows how it can feel to “look” like you have everything going for you on the outside, but to “feel” unfulfilled, disconnected, and not living in alignment with your heart on the inside. She’s been there. But, her work with plant medicine - supported with guidance, education and community - helped her recover her passion for life and the joy in her soul. 

Dana particularly loves supporting leaders - entrepreneurs, CEOs, founders, community leaders   - because they often face a particular type of challenge at the top and, having come from that background, Dana can relate. She also knows the ripple effect that can to spread to so many others when leaders are able to heal, grow, and feel whole.

Dana is also passionate about serving women. She knows plant medicines can have profound effects on women’s relationships with their bodies, hormonal issues, and related mental health issues. Coming from a background of male dominated industries  and smashing glass ceilings in leadership of other women, Dana supported women for many years, even co-founding a non-profit organization, the Women’s Collaborative Hub.

Catch Dana and her community of 1000+ every Wednesday (Cannabis, Entheogens + Women’s Wellness), Thursday (Psychedelic Microdosing 101) and Friday (Psychedelics 101) in The Flourish Academy’s rooms on Clubhouse.
