Love yourself to unlock your freedom, peace, light, and joy.

I have learned an important lesson from my clients about parenting and relationships - that it is necessary work to figure out how to negotiate with parents who have a mix of narcissistic and warm traits. I have also learned that some families have a level of mind control and dysfunction that is cult-like, and that it is important to draw boundaries and speak up for yourself. In addition, I have seen the benefits of psychedelics and marijuana for my clients, and this year I am researching ketamine treatments for myself. Finally, I have learned that love is more than just a feeling, but a practice, consistency, faith and respect for yourself and others.

"What doesn't kill us does make us stronger. That cliche is true. And after it makes us stronger, it also helps us become freer."

Here's what I cover in this episode:

1. How can understanding one's own family dynamics help bring peace and freedom?

2. What are the potential benefits of using psychedelics as a mental health treatment?

3. What does it mean to practice self-love, and how can it help us relate to others?
