Akua Ofosushene

Akua Ofosuhene is a Sacred Ayahuasca Ceremony Guide and healing advocate based in Kokrobite, Ghana — where the medicine she was called to serve grows on the same soil she walks. With nearly a decade of experience, she brews her own Ayahuasca medicine using Caapi Vine and Chacruna cultivated in Ghana, offering private and group ceremonies, retreats, and corporate healing experiences across West Africa and internationally.

Her journey into plant medicine was not abstract — it was urgent. When her teenage son was groomed into county lines drug dealing in London and conventional interventions failed him, Akua turned to psychedelics, natural healing modalities, and African spiritual practices. What she found changed everything. That lived experience of healing where systems could not reach now forms the bedrock of her work with parents navigating county lines, individuals emerging from cults and high-demand relationships, and those ready to release the past and step into wholeness.

Akua is a sought-after voice in the global psychedelic landscape. She sits on the management board of Breaking Convention — Europe’s largest psychedelic conference — and has spoken at Oxford University, UCL, and numerous international festivals and platforms.

She is the founder of African Spiritual Practices Events, held in both Ghana and the United Kingdom, and a member of the Traditional Herbalist Association of Ghana.

In Ghana, shes beginning work alongside pastors supporting people leaving prison.
Her current work extends beyond ceremony.

Akua is the driving force behind the Global Sacred Plant Medicine Reciprocity Fund — a first-of-its-kind initiative to create a structured financial pipeline from non-indigenous practitioners, retreat centres, researchers, and pharmaceutical interests worldwide, directly to the indigenous Ayahuasca lineage holders of the Amazon and Iboga wisdom keepers of Central Africa. Governed outside of Western institutions and rooted in the Global South, the fund innerstands reciprocity not as charity, but as economic decolonisation. She will be presenting findings from this initiative at Breaking Convention conference in 2026.

At the heart of all of it is a single conviction: that ancestral plant wisdom and contemporary healing are not in tension — they are each other’s completion.
