Today's episode is another intimate AMA session with my partner and producer in crime, Bailey Richardson, as we dive deep into the mind opening world of psychedelics and plant medicine. Note that we had some audio connection issues on her end, but we’ve done our best to mitigate them in the final release. This conversation was just too good to miss, especially if you've been riding the wave of curiosity on these powerful tools for healing and consciousness expansion. In this episode, we tackle big questions like the role of psychedelics in society and common misconceptions. Using my own evolution through psychedelics, I honestly share how they've played a part in my journey of growth, and the nuances of navigating sobriety while exploring the healing potential of plant medicines like ayahuasca. Naturally this episode isn't just about psychedelics – it's a holistic look at personal growth and spiritual evolution it can initiate. Finally, we delve into the practicalities and deeper implications of integrating psychedelic experiences into our lives. I share my process for integration, the importance of integrity and staying true to your values, and how psychedelics can help in shedding false constructs of who we are. We also touch on the potential dangers of incomplete integration work, and the fascinating world of microdosing – from LSD to psilocybin, San Pedro Cactus, and even ketamine. And, of course, we guide you on how to avoid bad trips, create safe spaces, and the crucial role of a shaman or facilitator in these experiences. Whether you're psychedelically curious, a seasoned traveler, or somewhere in between, join us for this enlightening and honest exploration. It's all about learning, growing, and finding our own path in this vast universe. Let's dispel the myths, address the realities, and explore whether this journey is right for you.
