"I am honored to recommend Mama Ayana Iyi, Founder and President of the Detroit Psychedelic Society. Mama Ayana is a visionary leader, deeply committed to community education, healing, and the responsible integration of psychedelic practices. Through her work, she has cultivated a safe, inclusive, and transformative space for individuals seeking personal growth, mental wellness, and community connection.

Her leadership is rooted in compassion, cultural awareness, and a strong sense of ethics, making her not only an effective organizer but also a trusted mentor and guide. Mama Ayana’s dedication to fostering dialogue, providing resources, and creating accessible programming has had a measurable positive impact on the Detroit community and beyond.
