We had the good fortune of connecting with Heather Lee and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Heather, is there something that you feel is most responsible for your success?
As two of the nations first certified psychedelic assisted psychotherapists we didn’t initially set out to be pioneers in psilocybin retreats for midlife women, but that is what we have become. Monica and I have both been mental health therapists for over thirty years with expertise in women’s life transitions. We came together a couple of years ago to create safe and soulful retreats to allow women to experience the soul and science of psilocybin and small, safe and supported settings. Much to our surprise the vast majority of women interested in exploring plant medicine and their inner wisdom are midlife and older women. We quickly realized that our retreats are creating a new rite of passage for women as the move into the next chapter of life, “Aging and Saging with Psychedelics”. We jokingly refer to ourselves as the Frankie and Grace of midlife psychedelics. We have added wonderful elements to our retreats such as yoga, sound healing, ecotherapy, beautiful locations and accommodations and fabulous food. Our boutique women’s plant medicine retreats are a wonderful way for solo travelers to feel connected to a community of like minded, curious, open minded women who are also seeking wisdom awakening

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
Colorado provided amazing opportunities to connect back to yourself and a peaceful pace of living by getting out on any of the amazing trails along the front range. I spend hours walking mindlfully and connecting to nature in the trails in Eldorado. A favorite activity is to hike the full Mesa trail and end a Chautauqua for a snack on the porch

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
