  • Psychedelics and Plant Medicine

    Our guest: JULIE WOOD felt stuck for much of her life in the conditioning that she calls the “Good Girl Program” - which left her over-thinking, over-performing and over-conforming - afraid to be herself. She followed all the Rules, graduated from Princeton and spent 18 years managing big advertising clients like PepsiCo and JPMorgan Chase. Despite her outer success she felt inauthentic and unfulfilled.

    Nine years ago, she left it all behind, setting off with her now-husband on a 5-year Spirit Journey in a little Jeep Wrangler, visiting 69 countries along the way.

    While traveling through Mexico and South America, she was introduced to the “niños santos” (psilocybin mushrooms) in the mountains of Oaxaca and participated in over 50 plant medicine ceremonies. Eventually she started supporting others in the ceremonial space, which she still does today at retreats in Mexico.

    Through her transformative experiences with the plants, Julie began to connect with the gifts she’s here to share. Julie has incredible clarity around her purpose here on Earth - to guide others in connecting with their gifts - through coaching, WomanSpeak public speaking circles, Family Constellations and, of course, plant medicine.

    Note: In this episode, we reference the “War on Drugs” and how it relates to a lack of acceptance around plant medicine that also gets linked with drug use. This was interesting info and food for thought:

    In 1994, Nixon’s Assistant to the President for Domestic Affairs and Watergate co-conspirator John Ehrlichman admitted to the real impetus for the War on Drugs, as quoted in  Smoke and Mirrors: The War on Drugs and the Politics of Failure, in Harper's Magazine by Dan Baum, published in 2016:

    “The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people. You understand what I’m saying? We knew we couldn’t make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders, raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did.”

  • Pioneer, game changer, life saver

    Our guest: DR. TAMU GREEN is a developmental psychologist and thought leader who brings expertise and lived experience in communities facing inequities in her pursuit of social justice through institutional and systems change. For nearly 30 years, she has been engaged in power building efforts that synergize resources, facilitate equity-oriented decision making, and turn advocacy into outcomes. Dr. Green is the CEO of the Equity and Wellness Institute, where she works collaboratively with a talented team of consultants to assess and meet a wide variety of clients’ and communities’ needs.

    *IMPORTANT post-recording addendum: This episode covers a vital matter that proves itself out with many decades worth of empirically relevant data - thus, the compelling statistics around deaths by tobacco require no embellishment. That said, we want to be as accurate as possible with the statements we made during our conversation. When we discuss stats around the daily deaths attributed to tobacco use and the industry's pursuit of new smokers - it may be unclear when we were referencing the US market versus global markets. Dr. Green clarifies:  

    "...the catastrophic loss on 9/11 (2,996 deaths on that date) and how there are more tobacco deaths daily. In the US there are currently 1,300 tobacco deaths daily but globally there are about 20,000 tobacco deaths daily..."

    "...in addition, the tobacco industry once needed to gain approximately 7,000 new smokers per day, which is likely much higher on a global scale...these statistics were the recognized number years ago and may vary based on 2021 statistics..."

  • A Heroine’s Journey: Unexpected and REAL

She also knows deeply the hurts and doubts life delivers and how remaining in the struggle can be easier to take than the fright of change. Sherry learned that the desire for transformation requires being inquisitive. Sherry speaks on her heroine’s journey and inspires many with her incredible ability to tell an honest story. Sherry looks to expand a sense of hope and direction in communities across the world. Her career has been varied, successful, and fulfilling.

  • What if we are DEAD wrong about managing grief and loss?

    Our guest: JULIA NICHOLSON is a former CEO, business consultant, and adjunct professor of business who has excelled for decades as an industry-leading visionary on governance, strategic planning, team building, and executive performance. She now brings her expertise and passion to organizations and conferences across the world.

    As a C-Suite executive for over 17 years, she has experienced firsthand the negative impact unwanted change, adversity, and loss can have on every individual, personally and professionally, and therefore, every aspect of an organization… every decision, interaction, and relationship, its culture, and ultimately the bottom line.

    Throughout her life, she’s been told “No” or “Not possible” more frequently than she was ever encouraged or supported. Not to be deterred, she defied conventional wisdom and overcame stereotypes and great odds to identify what it takes to not only survive, but thrive after experiencing unwanted change, adversity, and loss over and over again.

    Now she’s revealing the secrets to her success, the 5 Realizations, in keynote addresses around the world with proceeds from her talks going to charities that serve people in the areas of mental health and wellness, suicide awareness and intervention, and healthcare.
