Graduate of the National Circus School in Montreal, Antonia Dolhaine spent the last 4 years touring the world teaching and performing with the likes of Cirque du Soleil, Cirque Éloize, and Celebrity Cruises among others. Recently she ran away from the circus to run back to herself. Now a trauma-informed Breathwork facilitator and somatic practitioner in-training, her purpose is to help others to reconnect with themselves through the creation process, embodiment practices, shadow-work, and rituals allowing them to reframe their relationship to life. In this conversation, we talk about her history working in the circus arts and finding her identity as an artist, her personal experiences dealing with mental health and how that has led her into the world of healing practices such as Breathwork and shadow work, looking at the creative practice from a trauma-informed lens, and the parallels between the artistic practice and polarizing politics. 

**Disclaimer: In this episode we speak about microdosing as part of Antonia's healing journey and while she feels that it is important to share information and be open about these experiences, you should not take any drugs or substances without consulting a licensed medical professional.
