Hey lovely, I’m Sandie — founder of The Lush Club, award-winning plant medicine facilitator, mentor, and your guide to stepping into your most authentic, fricken amazing self.
My journey didn’t start in wellness.
It started in survival.
For years I lived carrying the weight of trauma, navigating the care system, struggling with self-worth, and feeling completely disconnected from who I truly was. I spent decades believing I wasn’t good enough and stuck in patterns that kept me small.
Eventually everything hit breaking point. That’s when I discovered plant medicine.
It didn’t just help me heal — it cracked me wide open and changed my entire life.
Within 18 months I went from surviving to thriving. I left behind self-sabotage, quit alcohol and substances, and stepped fully into my purpose.
Now I guide others through the same transformational work that changed everything for me.
To date I’ve supported hundreds of people through retreats, ceremonies, mentorship, and integration — helping them reconnect with themselves and step into their highest potential.
I’ve had the privilege of sitting deep in the Amazon jungle with indigenous medicine keepers and learning directly from traditions that have carried these sacred medicines for generations.
These experiences deepened my understanding, respect, and responsibility in holding space for this work.
The jungle taught me that this path isn’t about trends or quick fixes — it’s about deep healing, truth, and reconnecting to something far greater than ourselves.
In October I will be returning to the Amazon with a small group for a 10-day immersive retreat, guiding participants through one of the most powerful healing environments on earth.

Hey lovely, I’m Sandie – founder of Lush Retreats, plant medicine facilitator, mentor, and your guide to stepping into your most authentic, fricken amazing self. Let me start by saying this: I’m not your typical wellness coach. My journey has been messy, raw, and real, but it’s also been the most incredible transformation of my life—and now I’m here to help you experience yours.
For years, I lived in survival mode, carrying the weight of trauma from childhood, navigating the care system, and later finding myself trapped in destructive patterns. I spent decades feeling unworthy, not good enough, and completely lost. Then, one weekend, everything hit rock bottom.
That’s when I discovered plant medicine. It didn’t just help me heal—it cracked me wide open and gave me the courage to rewrite my entire story. In just 18 months, I went from surviving to thriving. I left behind the self-sabotage, quit alcohol and substances, and stepped into the most empowered version of myself. Now, I’m living my purpose, guiding others to do the same, and feeling so grateful to be here today.
