Two years ago, in one of our early episodes, we explored how we managed our finances as a couple. We've been meaning to get back to the topic and share what's changed in our approach since getting married and how it's working for us.

We explore how the simple practice of leaving a place better than we found it by picking up one piece of trash a day can transform our relationship to our self, our environment and our society.

After just ending our own shamanic dieta with cacao, we discuss what dieta is, why it's such a foundational practice for working with ayahuasca and the impact dietas have had on our lives over the past year.

Since coming back to the US, we're often asked what we do for health insurance. The short answer is we don't. We explore some of the common issues with health insurance that arise for those who are self-employed, traveling internationally or seeking alternatives outside the traditional western medical system and what we've done to solve those challenges for ourselves.

We reflect on our journey with work over the last five years and discuss some of the different stages we've gone through as self-employed small business owners.

We reflect on our first, 4-month "southwestern tour" in Dorothy, our truck camper, keeping a spiritual practice while on the move, the changing landscape of work, flow states, outgrowing problems you can't solve and why even in the time of covid we're betting on the long-term strategy of in-person relationships.

How do we grow as individuals in a committed relationship? We discuss some of the challenges coming up for us around this question two years into our marriage.

After a lot of traveling this week we keep it light and talk favorite places, books, movies and super powers....among other things. As usual, the conversation quickly goes off track.

What does it mean to carry medicine? How can we cultivate our own medicine? What is our medicine? We unpack and explore a potent question recently posed to us by a friend.

Julie-Roxane finally convinces Alasdair to sit down and talk about kids on the podcast.
