Why do stories matter? Because they are how we create meaning & meaning is the fuel that drives all we do.
And yet this ‘meaning making’, aka storytelling, can often be a very unconscious process happening in the background of our minds, dictating our lives without all that much reflection.
“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” Carl Jung
In this course, we work to make the unconscious conscious so that we can be more intentional and supported in the quest and inquiry of all we do in our lives.
How does it work? We embark on a process of taking inventory of your memories and all you’ve experienced that make you you- and sort through them; evaluating, distilling, and better understanding the wisdom they hold, so we can weave them into a more intentional story that serves your highest joy and supports your current mission in life.
In this workshop you will...
• Identify your life experiences & map out your history
• Recognize patterns, programs, and wisdom you’ve navigated
• Learn how to transmute your struggle into strength and step into being the hero of your own story
• Distill and weave these elements into a strong foundational narrative that reinforces all that you do
FOR THOSE LOOKING TO SHARE THEIR STORY, This course will teach you how to
• Edit your story down into a cohesive, compelling, and succinct narrative.
• Tell your story so that it invites, engages, and enlists others to understand and support your mission in life - ideal for any public speaking, panels, podcasts, teaching, etc.
FOR THOSE LOOKING TO USE THEIR STORY TO PREPARE FOR PSYCHEDELIC WORK, This course will teach you how to
• Prepare for a journey by identifying and focusing on specific narrow themes beforehand- so that during your journey, you are free to dive deep into the unconscious during the journey.
• Develop a strong connection to your inner compass - so that it may guide you in creating the story you want to be telling.
• Learn different ways to introduce and integrate your new story into your system before, during, and after your journey.
THESE WORKSHOPS have been offered in the mastermind courses of Laura Dawn, Beth Weinstein, have toured throughout the US and Costa Rica, and have been featured as psychedelic preparation classes at retreats at Holos Global, SoundMind, Soltara's online community, The Maloca, and on platforms DoubleBlind, and Nectara. Mareesa has been telling stories and making films for the last 20 years, and has been coaching leaders in the psychedelic space on how to share their stories for the last 3 years; She has also hosted and programmed psychedelic storytelling sessions at Breaking Conventions, BoomFest, and at local storytelling & psychedelic events around the world.

Testimonials;
Sarah Tamaya; Embodiment Mentor;
Mareesa’s guidance in how to use storytelling to amplify my coaching business was an absolute catalyst! It allowed me to connect more deeply with my own unique message to both attract and relate more deeply with my clients. The storytelling process itself was also incredibly healing. Mareesa’s authenticity and openness in sharing her own story helped me weave together the ups and downs of my life, my strengths and vulnerabilities, and share my story in a clear and honest way.
Ken Zillox- Owner of Eco Resport Hostel
It was amazing to see how my early childhood stories and patterns growing up, had an impact on the life I have today. Mareesa's hand in spotlighting and helping me formulate and weave all my stories into one, while celebrating all the ups and downs that got me to where I am, was eye opening and taught me a lot about myself and my personal human makeup. No matter where you are in your life’s journey, your stories deserve to be recognized... especially by yourself and maybe those you have yet to inspire.

The journey through owning my story was a challenging and rewarding one. I started very annoyed by having to look back to my past wins, loses, lows and highs. I believed that my life traumas had nothing extraordinary, more like shameful stories I preferred to forget. But I did the work and went down the rabbit hole of my past- and as a reward, I had a very special story. I started recognizing those past traumas were the moments that transformed my life into who I am now. Now I can see and honor how those events taught me about strength, resilience , owning my power, my voice, etc. Now, I can tell my story with pride because I see how I too live a heroes journey.
