#44 Life Update: What Am I Actually Doing?
[Video available on YouTube]
Welcome back to Diary of a Drop-Out, with me, Naomi Balderson. I realised I haven’t been open with you about what I’m actually doing at the moment. In this episode I give you a life update, explain the history of psychedelics, the science and what I believe my role is in the ‘renaissance’. I want to give you the most authentic expression of me, every time you tune in. I am birthing my business and putting on psychedelic integration circles, through doing so I realised a lot of people are unaware of this whole subject. Therefore, I hope this episode can be comprehensive and broad summary of the field and what I feel my role is in it.
From sitting in my first year uni halls, feeling like I have no purpose or ambition in life to now; knowing that this is my calling in every bone of my body. Thank you for listening and continuing to support me. All my love, Naomi x
