This week, we meet Mareesa Stertz, a filmmaker, storyteller, artist, and community organizer dedicated to fostering collective healing and transformation. As a co-founder of the Global Psychedelic Society (GPS) and Lucid News, Mareesa has been building platforms that destigmatize, educate, and build community around psychedelics.

Drawing from her own journey of trauma and transformation, Mareesa is passionate about using storytelling and art to deepen understanding and bring visibility to the process of healing and wholeness of which she has shared some of her experience on international stages, and through teaching workshops and retreats.

She’s done film work producing and hosting documentary series that can be found on Gaia TV and Amazon, and is currently bringing a large-scale immersive art project, The Sphinx Gate, to Burning Man 2025.

Settle in as we take a ride with our co-founder, Jimmy Nguyen, to explore Stertz’s unique perspective on healing, art, and psychedelics.
