Marieke van der Spek

Marieke has fully focused on personal development, leadership and how psychedelics can support this.
She has 20 years of work experience at various large organizations in positions where cooperation and personal development were central. Marieke is a certified coach, trainer and psychedelic practitioner. She applies her knowledge and experience to facilitate others in their personal growth. She connects with people, provides peace and is able to show ways to explore breaking old patterns and creating new possibilities.

“In my work as a coach, I noticed that that fixed thinking and behavior patterns make it difficult for our clients to change. And more so to let them go. Changing these patterns means stepping out of the comfort and trying new things. Some patterns are so deep that talking alone doesn’t work anymore.

Psychedelics helps to go deeper. It creates a clear connection with your consciousness. Insights are brought from the subconscious to the consciousness and that makes it possible to see and learn from.

My work as a certified coach, my personal experience with psychedelics and my training as a Psychedelic Practitioner at Synthesis, come together very nicely in this.

Something typical about me? I love details. So in our retreat you will find all sorts of details to stimulate senses. After a psychedelic journey all senses are open and stimulated, this has a wonderful effect on the sense of self.”
