About Me

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.

What I Do

Hey lovely, if you’re ready to start living your most aligned and authentic life, I’d love to guide you on your journey. Whether you’re just starting out, looking for deeper healing, or want someone to walk alongside you in this process, there are a few ways we can work together to help you thrive.

What Makes Me Different?

I keep it real. I’m not some guru on a pedestal; I’m just a woman who’s been through it and come out the other side. My work is raw, authentic, and grounded in my own lived experience. I know what it’s like to feel stuck, lost, and broken, and I also know how powerful you are when you reconnect with yourself.

I create spaces where you can show up exactly as you are—whether that’s laughing, crying, or everything in between. With me, there’s no judgment, no perfection—just love, support, and a whole lot of magic.

What I Offer

• Plant Medicine Retreats: Deep healing, connection, and transformation in safe, nurturing spaces.
 
• 1:1 Microdosing Mentorship: Your personal guide to integrating plant medicines into your life.
 
• Workshops & Courses: Dive into spirituality, mindset, and holistic well-being with me as your mentor.
 
• Lush Club Membership: An exclusive community packed with tools, inspiration, and discounts on microdosing.

Why I Do This

I know what it’s like to feel like you’re at your lowest point, and I also know that’s where the biggest breakthroughs happen. My passion is showing others what’s possible when you decide to take back control of your life. If I can go from years of trauma, self-doubt, and struggle to living a life I fricken love—so can you.

Let’s Work Together

If you’re ready to heal, grow, and reconnect with the incredible person you are, I’m here to walk that path with you. Whether it’s a retreat, mentorship, or just exploring what plant medicine can do for you, I promise to keep it real and meet you exactly where you’re at.

Let’s create something beautiful together, lovely.

With love and gratitude,
Sandie
