E9 - How a Gangster Became a Plant Medicine Guide | Carlos Duran

You're tuning in to episode 9 of the Vibration Translation Podcast, today we have a special guest: Carlos Duran. Carlos is a plant medicine guide who has studied the Columbian tradition of Yage for 13 years. He is deeply involved with Indigenous tribes and co-founded the Four Visions market to preserve these ancient cultures while spreading their wisdom across the world. Additionally, he runs men's and veteran's healing retreats. Carlos's past had nothing to do with spirituality; he grew up as a gangster, so what changed to create this drastic difference in his life path? Today we dive deep into his path and discuss ancient plant wisdom, our shadow, and our ego.
