You’ve just had your ketamine session. Your brain is open, your body feels different, and you might be wondering… Now what?  One of the main questions I receive as Your Ketamine Coach, is, “what do I do after ketamine?”

That’s exactly what we’re diving into today. The hours immediately after ketamine are crucial—this is when your brain is in peak neuroplasticity mode (aka soft, squishy Play-Doh). Whatever you do during this time? It’s getting imprinted.

In this episode, we’re covering:

✨ Why the post-ketamine window is sacred (and how it shapes your long-term transformation)
 🚗 The #1 thing to consider before you even leave the clinic
🥗 The best ways to ground, nourish, and support your brain and body
🌀 How to honor your emotions without overanalyzing them
📝 Why journaling, voice notes, or creative expression can help anchor your insights
🛑 What not to do after ketamine (trust me on this one)

AND… we’re setting the record straight on rest as a productivity hack (because yes, taking the day off is doing something).


🚨 WE JUST WRAPPED THE KPP BETA… AND WOW. 🚨

If you're preparing for a ketamine journey and feeling a mix of excitement and anxiety—wondering how to make sure it actually works for you, how to avoid feeling out of control, and what to do before and after to get real, lasting results—you’re not alone.

This process can feel overwhelming, but with the right preparation, you can step into your journey with confidence, clarity, and a plan that supports YOU.

💥 We just finished the first-ever live beta round of my Ketamine Preparation Protocol (KPP), and here’s what participants had to say:

🗣️ "I did some research on my own, just Googled ‘how to prepare for ketamine,’ but the information out there is so generic. I wanted more. More of what to actually expect, how to navigate it, and not just generic tips."

🗣️ "I had no idea what the default mode network was before this. Now I get why I feel stuck—and how ketamine actually helps disrupt that pattern."
🗣️ "Some of the journaling prompts were hard—like, really hard. But they also made me see things I had never considered before."

🗣️ "The breathing exercises actually helped! I started doing them at night, and I think they’re making a difference."

🗣️ "I loved the analogy of the butterfly. Right now, I’m in the goo phase, but I know I’m transforming."

I took every single piece of feedback from our beta round, and I’m revamping, recording, and launching it soon—so if you want to be the first to know when it’s ready, join the priority list NOW.
