MEET THE FOUNDER

Megan Sophia

Megan is a medical herbalist, oracle, ceremonialist, and multidimensional energy medicine practitioner with more than two decades of experience working at the intersection of plant medicine, trauma-informed care, and multidimensional healing.

She lives and works on the Traditional and Unceded Territory of the Quw’utsun’ people on Vancouver Island, where the forests, rivers, and ocean shape the rhythm of her life and continue to guide her understanding of healing as a relationship between people, land, and spirit.

A Life of Remembering

From early childhood, Megan’s awareness extended beyond the visible world. The boundary between realms felt permeable, and spirits, energies, and subtle presences were part of her ordinary experience. Alongside this perception were memories of other lifetimes and a deep, enduring connection to her family in the stars. As a starseed, she carries an innate sense of soul purpose and service that has guided her path from a young age. Time in nature steadied her and taught her how to listen. The plants became her first allies and lifelong guides, shaping the way she approaches healing, guidance, and relationship with the greater field of life with humility and care.

Formal & Practical Education

Her adult life has been devoted to refining these early sensitivities into grounded, practical skill through vigorous training and spiritual initiations. Megan holds a Bachelor of Science in Biopsychology from University of Victoria and a three-year Diploma in Medical Herbalism from Pacific Rim College. She completed graduate-level counselling studies, trained in Somatic Experiencing with Peter Levine, and worked for more than a decade in mental health and addictions, much of that time as a psychiatric case manager supporting individuals through trauma, crisis, and complex spiritual emergencies. This clinical foundation cultivated the steady, regulated, and trauma-informed presence that now underlies all of her work, enabling her to hold complex emotional, spiritual, and energetic experiences.

Alongside her formal education, Megan committed to long-term apprenticeship within multiple traditional and cross-cultural healing lineages, following an initiatory path that has carried her across continents and into diverse ancestral streams of medicine and ceremony. Her early training included a three-year program in Core Shamanism through the Foundation for Shamanic Studies, followed by more than a decade of one-to-one apprenticeship with Haida medicine man Nungkaathgaa Douglas Wilson, where she underwent a series of initiations, rites of passage, and deep ceremonial training in healing, journeying, and depossession.

Her studies continued through eight years of one-to-one apprenticeship and initiatory work within Lakota lineage teachings with Uncle Blu Hawk, alongside metaphysics and dreamwork with Chaty Secaira and Celtic herbal magic and somatic herbalism with Sean Pádraig O’Donoghue, weaving elemental and plant-based wisdom with the medicine of body and spirit. Her initiatory path later extended into Norse and seiðr traditions under the guidance of Betsy Bergstrom and Johannes Björn Gårdbäck, where she trained in energy medicine, compassionate depossession, curse unwinding, and land and space clearing. Mentorship with Ariella Daly further shaped her work in oracular practice, dreamwork, and the feminine mysteries.

Her path has also included extended pilgrimage and ceremonial medicine training across South America, Africa, Mexico, Central America, and Europe, learning directly from Indigenous and earth-based wisdom keepers and integrating these teachings into a grounded, lineage-informed approach to healing.

In Service to the Land

Across thousands of client sessions, ceremonies, and retreats, Megan has developed deep practical experience in oracular mediumship, psychedelic facilitation, and multidimensional energy medicine. She is known for her clear perception and her ability to track and diagnose subtle patterns within the field. Her approach is precise, compassionate, and grounded in sovereignty, supporting people to return to their own true self essence and original divine blueprint.

This work is rooted in the land where she lives and practices. On Vancouver Island, she stewards an organic herbal farm, working apothecary, and developing healing sanctuary, where plants are grown, harvested, and prepared by hand, and where trainings, ceremonies, and apprenticeships unfold in close relationship with the living world. Her long-running Plant Spirit Apprenticeship, now in its eleventh cohort, has become a cornerstone of this work, supporting hundreds of students in cultivating deep relationship with plant medicine, land-based practice, and embodied oracular skill.

At the heart of Megan’s work is the remembrance that we are both of the Earth and of the Stars. She is devoted to the embodied awakening of the original divine blueprint within humanity, the restoration of personal and collective sovereignty, and the evolution of consciousness on Earth.
