Sarah Schaefgen was brought up in close relation to the ceremonial traditions of the Lakota Native American tribes. Growing up in Missoula MT, it was natural for her to have a deep reverence and connection to nature and the sacred land. Much of her life has been spent exploring indigenous cultures and shamanic ways of living in harmony with the Earth and humanity. She has lived a life of service across multiple healing modalities and in 2019 co-founded Sacred Ally-Empowerment Arts Center with her husband Peter. Here they have created a safe haven for intentional community connection based on healing and spiritual evolution.
In 2020 Sarah completed an in depth experiential training in the Matsés tradition of Hapé and Kambo medicine. She is a member of the International Association of Kambo Practitioners and serves her local and global communities through strongethical practices.
In 2022, Sarah co-founded the Sacred Journeys Interactive Psychedelic Plant Medicine Facilitator Training with her husband Peter and long time friend and mentor, Cache Harzell.
In 2024, after 6 years working with the sacred medicine of cacao, Sarah completed a 6 month shamanic cacao apprenticeship with world renowned medicine woman Jemmita of Anchoring the Light and Andean Shaman Maestro Puma Fredi Quispe Sigona. Upon completion of this journey, Sarah is blessed to carry the powerful medicine bundle known as the Mesa and serve the sacrament of cacao in the traditional Andean lineage.
In 2025, Sarah co-birthed Heart of the Earth and Sky Entheogenic Sanctuary to establish safe and sacred spaces for people to engage in spiritual growth and evolution through plant based entheogens. Here, she and her team will continue to co-create ceremonies, retreats and trainings around the globe to foster love, healing and a sense of connection.
