Aaron Donne

I do this work not from a sense that I 'have arrived', but that I know what it's like to navigate difficult terrain – to feel stuck or not fully activated, to be in transition, to sense a pull toward something new.

From a young age I had dreamed of flying in the Air Force and was fortunate to have had the opportunity to do that, but an emerging sense of what I wanted to do with my life led me to chart a new path outside of the military. In that process I’ve learned a lot about the impact of mindset, the importance of unlearning aspects of conditioning, and taking thoughtful risks that are rooted in authenticity. My own work with psychedelics over the years has been an invaluable part of my journey, and I feel called to help others make the most of their experiences. You can read more about my story here.

Outside of this work I enjoy finding my place in the global sauna revival by providing whisking services at public bathhouses. I feel most alive cold plunging, trail running, rock climbing, writing, and playing on the coast with my wife and two kids

Testimonials

My experience with Aaron my facilitator was nothing short of extraordinary. From the outset, he demonstrated a remarkable ability to connect on a deep, personal level. Aaron took the time to truly get to know me, asking insightful questions that helped him understand my unique background and the specific intentions I had for my journey. His approach wasn't just professional; it was personalized and empathetic. Aaron's skill in listening and building rapport is exceptional. His sensitivity and understanding were especially crucial for me, as someone who has endured childhood trauma. He communicated expectations clearly and worked tirelessly to ensure I felt comfortable and safe throughout the process. His ability to create a trusting environment was instrumental in allowing me to fully engage in the journey. What makes Aaron stand out as a facilitator is his evident dedication to this work. It's as if he is tailor-made for this role, bringing not only skill and experience but also a genuine passion for helping others on their paths to healing and self-discovery. I wholeheartedly recommend Aaron to anyone seeking a skilled and experienced facilitator. His combination of professional expertise and personal empathy makes him a rare find in this field. His guidance was a key component of my transformative experience, and I believe he has the unique ability to offer similar support and insight to others on their journeys.

Aaron was excellent. He helped set intentions, was tremendously seasoned and gave solid guidance and expectations regarding the mushroom experience, and was highly helpful and caring during the mushroom experience itself. He treated the whole process with the respect that it deserved, assuring that we didn't take the whole thing lightly.

I've had impactful psychedelic experiences in the past but nothing compared to the integration I was able to do with Aaron. It felt like the first time that all the components were perfectly in place to really get the most benefit from the experience. He helped enable real insights from the trip and I was use those to make meaningful changes in my life. Going deep into the mind is always hard work but without setting intentions and processing the experience afterwards, it's too easy for it to fade from memory and to return to old patterns of thought and behavior. I'm extremely grateful for Aaron the work he is doing.
