Jean Pullen
Jean Pullen is a multi-talented artist, gardener, cook, musician, best selling book writer, and entrepreneur. Jean is the founder of Regenerate Your Reality, partner at Jungle Project and a Soil Advocate at Kiss the Ground.
In her past life, Jean worked in corporate finance, changing jobs every few years, but she never really felt satisfied. She has always questioned the status quo; her passion for truth and environmentalism led her to dismantle her life and begin a journey of self-exploration, changing her inner world and regenerating her reality.
She redesigned her lifestyle, focusing on living simply, learning, unlearning, and eventually teaching. In her travels to Europe, Mexico, and Central America over the past seven years, Jean has had the opportunity to co-create, volunteer with, and visit various permaculture projects.
“I have come to love a life where we grow our own fruit, where life is the ceremony, where we plant seeds each cycle, swim at the beach, practice yoga, and create. Where most days are the best day ever.”
Her journeys and accumulated lessons led her to write her memoir and guide to regenerative living, a blueprint for anyone seeking to regenerate their reality, too. Jean believes we can be part of the solution to the climate crisis, and that we all can play our part by living regeneration and coming back to our essence of love.

Later, he began a trip through Central and South America for 11 years, during which time he continued collaborating in diverse projects (including being a manager for more that 2 years in a famous permaculture project called Punta Mona in Costa Rica and working with other projects such as Essence Arenal in Costa Rica and Mystical Yoga Farm in Guatemala). He has also collaborated and lived with various indigenous and agricultural communities. Alan has planted thousands of trees and permaculture gardens, offering workshops, courses, different ceremonies with cacao, sweat lodge (temazcal), and fire. His mission is to protect seeds.

Daniel
Daniel is a father of 2, Detox Guide, Soul Coach, Musician, Engineer and founder of getLIGHT, an online platform which gives access to Detox and Gut Regeneration Kits as well as online and in-person Detoxification and Regeneration Programs and Retreats. After a 5 month SELF-Healing journey from improper digestion and leaky gut symptoms, Daniel had a realization that health was not possible through strictly eating healthy. And that the body’s health is based strictly on what it can digest.
1. Detoxification is the first step; we let go from our body what no longer serves.
2. Clarity is second; when the gut is clear and clean, so is the mind.
3. Regeneration is the final step; we add life back into our being using living foods, micro-nutrients, cultures, bacterias and probiotics.
Today, getLIGHT assists people daily all over the world to gain great clarity by cleansing the mind, body and soul. Through its Online Store, getLIGHT sends Detox kits throughout Costa Rica and the United States. getLIGHT also has a coaching platform called Detox Your Life, which helps individuals through major shifts and transitions in their lives in order to getLIGHT.
Our saying goes: Heal the body, Liberate the Mind, Sing your Song.
