On this extraordinary episode of The Being Curious Show, host Kelly Wagner welcomes visionary artist, shamanic practitioner, sound healer, and energy healing teacher Mari Mendoza for a deeply personal conversation about transformation, ancient wisdom, and remembering who we truly are.
And here’s where things get interesting…
This conversation was recorded on 11/11, beginning at approximately 11:11!
More than 35 years ago, Mari was struggling with heroin addiction and describes reaching a point where she felt she had lost herself. During her recovery, she experienced what she describes as a profound spiritual activation involving light, sound, and vibration that changed the course of her life.
That experience opened the door to decades of learning from Indigenous elders, participating in sacred ceremonies, exploring crystals and sound, and creating visionary artwork inspired by her spiritual experiences.
IN THIS EPISODE, WE EXPLORE:
- The 11:11 Awakening – Mari shares the remarkable experience that changed her life.
- From Addiction to Transformation – How her journey through recovery became the foundation for her spiritual path.
- Ancient Shamanic Wisdom – Lessons from sweat lodges, sacred ceremonies, medicine wheels, and Indigenous elders.
