Robin Flynn and Darcy Kopas are heart-centered guides, plant spirit medicine ceremonialists, and sanctioned teachers of the Pachakuti Mesa Tradition. Married partners in life and in ceremony, they have been entrusted as co-carriers of the Altar Major from don Oscar Miro-Quesada — together they are stewards of the lineage, called to tend this medicine's fire and transmit it to the next generation of sincere hearts. Their work bridges ancient cross-cultural shamanic wisdom, Kamaska curanderismo, transformational creativity, and leading-edge science within the dynamic waves of the emergent global awakening.

Their path was forged through lived initiation. Robin came to Spirit young, moving through a decade-long healing quest that carried her from the monasteries of Nepal and ashrams of India to the sacred sites of the Andes and Amazon, where profound ceremonial work restored her to wholeness. Darcy's awakening began in years of solitude in the wilds of British Columbia and deepened through initiation at Peru's ancient Chavín temple — a birthplace of Andean spirituality — into a lineage of earth and star medicine they have spent nearly two decades unpacking and serving.

Together they co-created the Resource and Empowerment Therapeutic Model, which weaves Earth-honoring shamanic wisdom, eco-psychology with new science and holds to a core truth: healing is an inside job that we cannot do alone.

Robin holds a B.A. in Ecopsychology from Naropa University and an M.A. in Good and Sustainable Communities. Between them they have facilitated well over 1,000 ceremonies, co-led 9 pilgrimages to Peru, and taught more than 180 apprentices through the Pachakuti Mesa Lineage and with the guidance of their Elders offer deep training to become a Sanctioned Plant Ceremonialist.

As co-founders of Visionary Hearts and Star River Sanctuary, Robin and Darcy teach online and lead international transformational retreats — empowering each person to become the "shaman" of their own healing and awakening journey.
