Colette Condorcita is a Transformational Coach, Psychedelic Facilitator, Activist,  Entrepreneur, Integrative Hypnotist, Psychedelic Consultant, and Regenerative Designer. She describes to her clients and in interviews that her brain “works like how psychedelics do” and considers herself neurodivergent, having what she calls a shamanic neurotype. Colette does not identify as a shaman as she was not born into a traditional shamanic culture, but she neurologically and psychologically identifies with the ways shaman’s and traditional healers’ nervous systems function.

This brought her to work with the traditional ayahuasca cultures, where she had her first experiences with ayahuasca thirteen years ago. Colette finally felt the confirmation of her own neurological experience and framework after these experiences, directly connecting with traditional curanderos and shamanic entheogenic medicines.

Colette is the founder and the Board Chair of Decriminalize Nature Philadelphia, a registered 501-C4 working to decriminalize entheogens in Philadelphia by passing a resolution at the city level. She works at the premier 5-MeO-DMT retreat center as a guest facilitator, Tandava Retreat Center, and supports retreat clients with psychedelic integration work. Colette is currently a consultant on psychedelic education, safety, and Indigenous advocacy for two different psychedelic startups.

In this fascinating podcast, Damodar & Colette talk about:
- Why decriminalizing of, & grass roots community advocacy for, entheogenic (psychedelic) plants is so important 
- Having a "Shamanic Neurotype" and it's connection to Neurodivergence
- How to best undertake a plant medicine journey as an individual 
- Honoring & understanding the traditional use of plant ceremony and spirituality
- Eagle + Condor Prophecty: Bridging western ideas of medicine + healing (the "eagle") with the global south's indigenous traditions of plant ceremony (the "condor")
- Collette's own transformational and inspiring journey
