In this episode of Beyond the Dose, host Michelle Harrell speaks with Unitarian Universalist minister and former client Chris Jimmerson to explore how grief, psilocybin, and surrender can transform the human spirit.

Chris opens up about the loss of his life partner, how a guided psychedelic journey helped him reconnect with God and love, and how that moment of surrender shifted his faith, purpose, and capacity for love.

Together, they talk about: ✅ What psilocybin revealed about grief, God, and presence ✅ Why surrender is the hardest — but most powerful — part of healing ✅ The emotional paradox of finding joy in deep loss ✅ How psychedelics helped him reconnect with a new love ✅ How spiritual leadership changes after encountering divine love ✅ The role of integration, community, and self-acceptance after loss

Whether you're navigating loss, faith, or the unknown, this episode offers comfort, clarity, and real hope for what's possible on the other side of grief.
