Recorded on a rocky boat trip through Antarctica, Sophie Grégoire Trudeau, Canadian wellness advocate, author, and former unofficial First Lady of Canada, joins Alli Schaper (co-founder of SuperMush and host of the Into the Multiverse podcast) for an intimate conversation exploring human connection, safety, belonging, and living authentically.

Sophie opens up about her journey writing Closer Together, Knowing Ourselves, Loving Each Other, including her struggles with eating disorders and insights from her time as Canada’s unofficial first lady. The conversation also explores how tears, playfulness, and humor serve as tools for healing, how depression and blame can be manipulated to divide people, and how tools like somatic practices, psychedelics, and yoga can restore empathy, joy, and creative flow.

Sophie also shares upcoming projects, including free yoga and meditation offerings and a virtual workshop with Dr. Gabor Maté.

As a Registered Herbalist (RH) of the American Herbalists Guild (AHG), Certified Holistic Nutritionist, Instructor of Mycology, and National Educator of Four Sigmatic, Danielle is teaching the world about the importance of functional foods and herbal medicine for a vital life.

Then she became a Certified Raw Chef and Detox Coach while working with a Naturopathic Doctor in Indonesia. But it was leading trekking adventures into the backcountry of Thailand where she became particularly fascinated by herbal medicine (while becoming fluent in Thai). After several years in Asia, she landed in Boulder, Colorado to formalize her education in holistic medicine. Upon completing her graduate studies at the Colorado School of Clinical Herbalism (CSCH), she opened her private practice where she worked with hundreds of clients specializing in functional mushroom-based treatment for individuals with auto immune conditions. She was invited to become the Instructor of Mycology at CSCH, where she still teaches.

This week we are featuring a special interview between Alli Schaper & Dr. Christian Gonzalez (originally posted on the Heal Thyself Podcast), talking about all things community, psychedelics and functional mushrooms. This conversation provides a great framework for how we can harness the power of psychedelics to heal our families, ourselves, and the world.

Why is community so important? Alli talks about where the criminalization began, as well as why so many states are decriminalizing this substance. We also learn about some interesting history on the beginning of religion that may involve this substance.
