ABOUT ME

LISETTE LAURENS


My friends see me as an open, free, and connecting person with a sense of humor. Someone who's always looking for connection, depth, and adventure. I've been living in the Netherlands and Egypt for a year now. Besides promoting my own mission, I work at Elevated Mind Retreats and ZoMa training courses. Dancing, nature, adventure, good food, and good books bring me joy. I thrive on deep conversations about awareness and my loved ones.

OVER MIJ๏ปฟ

My name is Lisette, and I'd love to take you on my personal journey. Just like you, healing plants and energy work came my way. I was searching for that deeper layer within myself. On this page, you'll find all about my story.

MY MISSION


For years now, I've been working with great care and attention to help you reconnect with yourself. I'm a certified facilitator, trauma therapist, and sexologist, offering loving, experienced, and professional support and physical guidance. Through retreats with healing plants, I realize my mission:


"Guiding you with the wisdom and experience I have received from various wisdom keepers from different continents, so that you too can embrace your inner freedom, authentic power, and wisdom."

I don't force anything and work from intuition and flow. I combine this with the knowledge from my training and the indigenous medicine tribes I've visited on various continents. At the heart of my mission lies a deep connection with female trauma. I've personally peeled back many layers to guide others through this process. This mission has taken me to many places around the world...

Former participants describe my sessions as 'coming home to a loving, warm, safe environment where you can be completely yourself'.

2024 - 2025

EGYPT


After a wonderful year of profound retreats, I left for Egypt at the end of 2024. This journey opened deep layers within me and brought me closer to the mysteries, portals, energy work, and an ancient medicine I've been working with for years: the Acacia.

I've now visited Egypt three times, lived there for several months, and organize retreats and tours in this remarkable country. Both Egypt and Jordan have deeply touched me and revealed so much about who I am and the work I'm privileged to do here.

2022- 2023

LATIN AMERICA


In Mexico, Guatemala, Nicaragua, and Bolivia, I learned even more about the plants and traditional healing techniques. I lived and volunteered in various places, including at retreat centers and medicine women. My journey ended in Peru, where I followed an Ayahuasca Diet with Maestra Ynes and her family. There, I lived in isolation in the jungle for 16 days and participated in ceremonies to heal from (sexual) trauma, anxiety and panic attacks, dissociation, nightmares, and other physical and mental ailments.

2022 - 2023

INN.CONTACT


Before I embarked on this solo journey, I was in a state of flux. After pouring blood, sweat, and tears (literally) into furthering my development through a training program as a trauma healing facilitator, INN.CONTACT was born. Before I left, my company, launched in 2020, was booming. Together with my wonderful team, we've been able to guide many people. Nevertheless, I sold my house and almost all my belongings to fulfill my long-held dream of traveling solo in Latin America.

2020- 2022

FOLLOW MY HEART


Before that, after a long period of hesitation, I had quit my job and was given the opportunity to volunteer in Spain and the Netherlands. There, I guided people in their healing process with Ayahuasca and Kambo. This came about because I'd only truly broken down six months earlier, when my then-relationship ended. Yet, after a long period of (self-)development, I longed to be saved without taking responsibility for my empty heart. That empty heart, that pain, led to my journey to self-love. During this journey, I met Mother Ayahuasca. ๐Ÿƒ

2019 - 2020

LATE TWENTY


My transformation began slowly, even though I had everything I thought I wanted: I had a steady job and my own business, a mortgage, a great boyfriend, and I went to festivals (more than) regularly. I was extremely adventurous, someone with lots of friends and a busy schedule. Despite this, I felt restless, unhappy, and sought extreme external stimulation in my daily life. Mental and physical complaints gradually emerged. My days were characterized by chronic fatigue, illness, injuries, addictions, and ultimately, a (second!) burnout. After conventional care and encounters with alternative medicine, my perspective on life and the world changed.

2003 - 2019

AS A TEENAGER


As a teenager, I was very much into dancing and creativity. Until I was allowed to work and discovered the pub. Later, I moved to Arnhem, and in my twenties, I traveled extensively, mainly to Asia. I combined my wanderlust with work, festivals, and my friendships.

While I always completed my vocational (MBO) and higher professional (HBO) degrees, I never quite felt at home within society's expectations. I pursued creative studies and focused on conceptual thinking and design.

1991 - 2003

AS A CHILD


I was born on June 2nd in Wageningen and grew up in Rhenen, a small town in the Bible Belt. As a child, I always received everything I needed. Spirituality was a theme in my life from an early age, and despite that, I chose the path of comfort, yearning to belong.

I never liked school; I didn't understand the Catholic Church at all, and when I reread my old report cards, I have to laugh: Lisette can't consent, is dreamy, draws a lot, and is a chatterbox. Luckily, I found my passion: From the age of nine, I was passionate about hip-hop and street dance, traveling throughout the Netherlands for competitions.
