Wexa Metsa is a Shipibo curandero born in the community of Roaboya, Loreto. His first cup of Oni was with his grandfather Leonardo Inuma at 13 years old and later began dieting with his great aunt, Maestra Olivia Arevalo at the age of 18. After Olivia’s passing, he studied with many other teachers including his father Miguel Lopez, uncle Enrique Lopez, aunt Delicia Arevalo, and even mestizo teachers. Today he leads the Kushi Retreat Center and co-leads the Koshi Nete Online School together with Macarena Arias.

Macarena is a Peruvian plant medicine educator dedicated to bridging Amazonian traditions to the West. She began working in the Peruvian Amazon since 2016, doing both community work and learning about Plant Medicine from many healers, including Onanya Manuela Mahua (Jakon Rate). Around the same time, she began learning the Shipibo language with Professor Pakan Meni. In 2020, after a long term dieta during COVID-19, Macarena received inspiration to partner with Shipibo teachers to bridge the language and culture to the medicine community around the world. Since then she has co-created many online educational initiatives through the platform koshinete.com.
