Gillian Riley Lepisto

Gillian Riley Lepisto is a passionate artist, writer and Certified Kambo Practitioner, focusing her efforts on wellness workbooks specifically designed for women. Her publications include guidebooks on sacred earth medicines, such as Kambo, and a psychedelic integration workbook aimed at supporting individuals on their healing journeys. Through her work, she shares insights gained from both personal experience and extensive study of earth medicines, emphasizing their potential to liberate, heal, and uplift the human spirit. Gillian’s journey to wellness is deeply personal. After overcoming a devastating addiction and the challenges of homelessness, she has been sober for nine years. The transformative power of these earth medicines played a pivotal role in her recovery, leading her to discover a new sense of freedom and purpose. Once reliant on multiple medications for depression, Gillian found that natural earth and plant medicines and a spiritually based practice with them offered her a path to healing that she had never before experienced. This profound shift inspired her to immerse herself in the study of entheogenic practices and the rich cultures surrounding them. Now, through her workbooks and teachings, Gillian aims to empower other souls by sharing her story of resilience and hope. Living in Memphis with her husband and daughter, she continues to be dedicated to uplifting others on their journeys toward healing and self-discovery.
