Psychedelic Passage

57. Psychedelics, Motherhood, Pregnancy, & Child Development Ft. Mikaela de la Myco


Listen Later

Join us for an eye-opening episode of the Psychedelic Passage podcast as host Nicholas sits down with the remarkable Mikaela de la Myco, an Indigenous mother, mushroom educator, and community ceremony facilitator. In this conversation, they delve deep into the world of psychedelics and their intersection with motherhood, pregnancy, and child development. 


Mikaela, hailing from diverse ancestral backgrounds, shares her insights and experiences from Italy, the Caribbean, and the mountains of Mexico. She provides a fresh perspective on the rematriation of entheogens and how it ties into the stewardship of psychedelics by Indigenous women and Earth-centered communities. 

This episode will challenge your perceptions and offer a much-needed spotlight on the role of women in psychedelic practices. Explore the uncharted territories of psilocybin's presence in the mother's body during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Discover how the earth's medicines, like mushrooms and cannabis, are being integrated into the journeys of mothers seeking alternative approaches to wellness. 

Mikaela’s in-depth research, anecdotal evidence, and survey data reveal the potential benefits of these plant allies on emotional resilience, cognitive development, and enhanced communication between mothers and their children.
