    Hamilton Souther

    Aloha, everyone, and welcome to an extraordinary conversation with a guest who stands at the crossroads of ancient wisdom and modern transformation. Today, we are honored to be joined by Hamilton Souther, a Master and visionary who has dedicated over two decades of his life to unlocking the mysteries of consciousness through plant medicine. Trained under the legendary Julio Llerena Pinedo in the depths of the Amazon, Hamilton became the first Westerner to be recognized as a Maestro Medico Vegetalista—a title that signifies unparalleled mastery in Amazonian plant medicine.

    What sets Hamilton apart is not just his depth of experience—having led over 3,000 plant medicine ceremonies and guided more than 15,000 people through profound, life-altering journeys—but also his ability to bridge worlds. He has brought the sacred knowledge of shamanism to the global stage, mentoring high-profile leaders, CEOs, and creatives, helping them tap into their personal power and transcend the limitations of conventional success.

    Hamilton is more than a healer; he is a pioneer. In 2004, the New York Times recognized his groundbreaking work with Ayahuasca, opening the door for the Western world to engage with this powerful tradition. He has since founded the Blue Morpho Academy, training a new generation of sitters, facilitators, and master healers to carry this lineage forward with safety, professionalism, and integrity. His think tank explores the intersection of technology and consciousness, and his ventures like Gaia Labs and LiquidEarth push the boundaries of what’s possible in both the digital and spiritual realms.

    Hamilton’s journey is one of courage, innovation, and deep service. He stands as a testament to what is possible when we integrate the wisdom of ancient traditions with the complexities of modern life. Today, we’ll delve into the very heart of his work—exploring not just the power of plant medicine but the deeper philosophical and spiritual questions that arise when we begin to unlock the full potential of the human spirit.

    Hamilton, it’s a profound honor to have you here. Let’s begin by exploring the journey that has brought you to this moment.

    Dr. Abbie Maroño

    Introducing Dr. Abbie Maroño—a pioneer in the delicate art of decoding human behavior, a social engineer with the deftness to map not just networks, but the intricate pathways of the human mind. As both a scientist and practitioner, she’s carved out a space where psychology meets influence, using her knowledge to navigate and empower the social landscape with precision.

    But perhaps Dr. Maroño’s greatest feat isn’t just in teaching us how to read others; it’s in how she turns the mirror inward, urging us to confront the discomfort we often run from. Her groundbreaking work, Work in Progress: The Road to Empowerment, the Journey Through Shame, doesn’t just offer a new perspective—it rewires the way we understand shame, empowerment, and ourselves. In a world that seeks to ‘bulletproof’ its emotions, she reminds us that our vulnerability is not a weakness, but the key to unlocking authenticity.

    With a resume recognized by the U.S. Department of State, which placed her in the top 1% of her field internationally, Dr. Maroño brings a unique blend of scientific rigor and social insight. She’s not just an observer of behavior; she’s a master of influence and authenticity, engineering the delicate balance between the two.

    Today, we peel back the layers with a true architect of empowerment—one who doesn’t just study human behavior but builds bridges with it.

    Today, we have the incredible honor of welcoming Chip Colquhoun, a master storyteller who has dedicated nearly two decades to unlocking the transformative power of stories. Chip isn’t just someone who tells tales; he’s a visionary who understands storytelling as a fundamental human survival skill—one that has shaped our evolution as much as fire or shelter.

    Chip’s journey began with a keen observation: children thrive when immersed in stories. They perform better, engage more deeply, and unlock parts of themselves that conventional teaching struggles to reach. Whether it’s a non-verbal child finding their voice, a stutterer gaining fluency, or reluctant readers becoming voracious learners, Chip’s methods have empowered countless young minds around the world.

    From collaborating with top institutions to running groundbreaking experiments that prove the cognitive power of stories, Chip has redefined what education can be. His work has led to remarkable results, such as students increasing test scores by 26% and discovering the joy in learning through story-led lessons.

    So, join us as we dive into the world of storytelling with Chip Colquhoun—where education meets magic, and where the stories we tell shape not only young minds, but the future itself.
