  • Ep. 132 - Janeth Jaramillo - Ayahuasca, Wachuma, & Buddhism
    Apr 24 2024

    Hey everybody! Episode 132 of the show is out. In this episode, I spoke with Janeth Jaramillo. Janeth and I met about 12 years ago when we were both working at the Amazonian ayahuasca center the Temple of the Way of Light. Janeth was the head of the permaculture program. We spoke about that as well as her interest and experience working with ayahuasca, huachuma (San Pedro), and the intersection of plant medicine practices with Buddhism. I really enjoyed catching up with Janeth and having her share. She’s been around this work for a long time and has a lot of experience and wisdom to share.
