In this episode of Remember Who You Are, Melissa opens up about the struggles she faced after the isolation of the pandemic—anxiety, social disconnection, and patterns of behavior that left her feeling almost paranoid. Guided by the call of plant medicine, she stepped into her first Ayahuasca ceremony, where she discovered profound insights: the ego as the root of pain, the importance of surrendering to the unconscious, and the realization that the only way through is inward. Melissa also reflects on the balance of masculine and feminine energy, cultivating empathy for her lineage, and the visions that reshaped her understanding of consciousness. Her story is both vulnerable and powerful—a reminder of the courage it takes to face ourselves fully.
