Let's talk about Kanna! This is a legal, safe and well-researched plant medicine from South Africa. In today's episode, Jenny and I are giving you an introduction to this little succulent, and sharing about our experience microdosing Kanna. 

Kanna is a psychedelic-adjacent plant that is psycho-active but  classified as an empathogen rather than a psychedelic. Still, there are many benefit to working with it in a similar way we work with psychedelics. It is a heart-opening medicine that invites us to slow down and ease stress.

As the season are changing, we are both experiencing a time of transition, which is the perfect time to do a microdosing protocol. The best part? Kanna is completely legal and accessible within North America. Stay tuned for a future episode where I will be interviewing a Kanna expert for a much deeper dive into this medicine.

Topics covered:

• How to know its time to do a microdosoing protocol
• Microdosing to ease transitional periods
• Kanna is legal and accessible
• Kanna is a heart opening empathogenic
• A little intro to Kanna and its indigenous uses
• What is Kanna useful for?
• Ethical sourcing of Kanna
• Our intentions for microdosing with Kanna
• Protocol and dose for microdosing Kanna
• Creating an intentional microdosing container for building healthy habits

PUBLISHERS NOTE: As of January 2024, I can no longer recommend Reunion as a place to experience plant medicine. See full statement HERE. This does not pertain to the guests in the episode, whom I still endorse as medicine providers.

Ayahuasca and Psilocybin-containing mushrooms are a beautiful gift to humanity. As we explore these medicines in the West, we need to remember that we are entering a cultural paradigm that is different from our own. In this interview with Sr. Program Directors at Reunion Experience, we explore how we can show up to medicine in a good way.

If you want to enter medicine spaces with respect, reverence, and reciprocity for the cultures that these medicines come from, this conversation is for you. This convo is extremely valuable for current or aspiring space holders in the world of plant medicine, AND, for participants in plant medicine circles. 

I had an opportunity to visit Reunion in Costa Rica, and realized that it's a truly special place. The fact that it's a not for profit center is the tip of the iceberg. Medicine is truly guiding the way the Reunion team operates: With deep humility, grace, reverence and respect for the cultures, plant teachers, and the Way of Nature.

Karina and Julian are not speaking on behalf of any of the lineages they work with, rather from their experiences as students and cultural bridges.

Topics covered:

• How they both got involved with facilitating plant medicine experiences
• A little bit about Reunion Experience in Costa Rica, a not for profit plant medicine center
• Building relationship with different Wisdom Keepers and teachers
• Reciprocity and the art of giving and receiving under a not for profit model
• What it means and looks like to put people and the planet over profit
• What is a cultural bridge & how to be one
• The path of studentship with direct indigenous wisdom keepers
• What does respect in medicine spaces mean?
• Plant medicine as a relationship, not a tool
• Land stewardship & devotion to the elements
• Creating narrative neutral spaces for exploring spirituality

This episode will inspire any one who wants to cherish the sacredness of partying in an energizing and fulfilling way. It's time to shed light on conscious, intentional and powerful recreational containers! We talk about set, setting, integration, intention, and everything else to consider for grooving successfully with psychedelics.

There is NOTHING WRONG with partying with psychedelics. Nothing. Not a thing. However, we are dealing with substances and spaces that can be easily abused, so there is a lot to keep in mind when engaging with psychedelics in this way. In today's episode, I am sharing the boundaries that I have created for myself to keep my recreational psychedelic containers healthy and energizing. I encourage anyone who engages in recreational contains to do the same.

Kev is joining me today to add some colorful commentary, and his take as a professional partier. We both share our top tips for festival self-care, harm reduction, safety, and of course, fun. This is a really really fun episode to tune into, truly a conversation between two friends; enjoy it!

Topics covered:

• Recreational psychedelics to enhance the good, not numb the bad
• Maintaining other hobbies & relationships outside of raving
• Weakening the connection between electronic music and substances
• Determining how and when to try and new substance
• Having a “substance plan,” knowing interactions and dosages
• Basic psycho-education for recreational substances

Jennifer Chesak is an award-winning freelance science and medical journalist, editor, and fact-checker based in Nashville, Tennessee. She earned her master of science degree in journalism from Northwestern University’s Medill. And her work has appeared in the Washington Post, Healthline, Better Homes and Gardens, The Daily Beast, B*tch, and more. 

Her most recent book is The Psilocybin Handbook for Women: How Magic Mushrooms, Psychedelic Therapy, and Microdosing Can Benefit Your Mental, Physical, and Spiritual Health. Her mission here as a journalist stems from being a woman who has been fed up with women being left behind by the medical system. In this episode she shares some of the events that led her to psilocybin, and writing this book. 

Jennifer actually interviewed me for the set and setting chapter of this book, so you can find me in chapter 10! I wanted to bring her on the show to share everything she’s learned while writing this book. She has a wealth of information from how to microdose and trip sit to understanding the latest psychedelic research, and incorporating indigenous wisdom. The Psilocybin Handbook for Women is a resource for everyone, although it features information specific to those assigned female at birth—because psychedelics may have different effects and applications across the sexes.

Topics covered:

• Why do we need a book on psilocybin for women?
• Health condition women tend to self-treat with psilocybin
• Ways psilocybin affects women differently than men
• How psychedelics affect the menstrual cycle
• Can psilocybin regulate the menstrual cycle?
• Microdosing mushrooms and the menstrual cycle
• The optimal menstrual phase to have a mushroom journey
• Two Eyed Seeing: Bridging science and ingenious wisdom
• Psilocybin for people who are breastfeeding or pregnant
• How parents are managing working with psychedelics
• Can psilocybin boost your sex life?
• Sexual abuse, safety and consent in the psychedelic space

It’s the ketamine episode you’ve been waiting for! Ketamine is not technically a (classic) psychedelic, yet it behaves like one. Many researchers and scientists in the psychedelic space consider it to be a psychedelic, and are applying the psychedelic assisted psychotherapy model to its use.

This episode is a treasure trove of information for those who are considering ketamine for treatment, and those who want to learn more about this “chameleon” drug. Delivering this information is Dr. Kyle Greenway; a highly respected ketamine researcher and psychiatrist. He keeps a low profile, so it was truly special to have him on the show.

Dr. Greenway is a psychiatrist and assistant professor at McGill University. He completed a research fellowship at Imperial's psychedelic research centre and co-led the development of two academic clinics utilizing ketamine in treatment-resistant depression. These clinics are amongst the only services in the world to provide ketamine-assisted therapy in public healthcare systems.

Beyond his academic accolades, Dr. Greenway is very fun to learn from. I promise you that even though this conversation is highly academic, we had a lot of fun talking about serious subject matter.

Topics covered:

• What is Ketamine? & its history
• Why Ketamine is so dose-dependent
• Why Ketamine is a “chameleon” drug
• How Ketamine started to be used for mental health conditions
• Ketamine vs classic psychedelics
• The “after glow” / anti-depressive effect
• Risks with abusing ketamine, such as “ketamine bladder”
• Who and what ketamine is effective for
• Why the “inner healing intelligence” might be harmful
• What a ketamine treatment protocol looks like
• The future of psychedelic assisted therapy and ketamine

This episode goes in depth about the second half of my week in Costa Rica with the Peruvian Maestas Ynes, Lila and Laura of the Lopez-Sanchez lineage.

I also give you guys my honest review of Reunion Experience in Costa Rica (spoiler alert: I absolutely loved it). If you are curious about Reunion and have more questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to me and I will answer you!

• Embodying the medicine path
• My 3rd Shipibo Ayahuasca ceremony with the intention of health
• Learning to listen to my body, not just hear it
• Reflecting on healing charkas centers of the body with Ayahuasca

Welcome to The Journey: A series that shines a light on real people on their psychedelic journey. In this episode, I am interviewing my dear coaching client, Samantha Mlinar, about her psychedelic journey. She shares very generously about her fierce transformation over the last year.

Sam has cleared and transformed so many energy blocks around people pleasing, the inner critic, body image, mediocre wellness, and attachments to outcomes. She has been able to use psychedelics, coaching and other tools to move forward fiercely in her career, romantic relationship, friendships, and other areas.

The Psychedelic Path is all about discovering who you are and finding the tools that work for YOU. Sams journey of letting go of what wasn’t meant for her and opening up to new possibilities will inspire anyone who is feeling stuck.

Topics covered:

• How Sams religious upbringing set the stage for psychedelic exploration
• Working through people pleasing and over-giving
• Creating space for oneself to grow
• Releasing black and white thinking and the need to be right
• How to blend psychedelic experiences with coaching
• Learning there are not quick fixes, rather to enjoy the process
• Releasing attachment to outcomes and becoming the observer
• Balancing a psychedelic lifestyle with other tools and life
• Healing body image and wellness practices
• Weening off Adderall with mushroom microdosing
• Confronting the inner critic

It’s been six months since I experienced Iboga and to say life is different is an understatement. Iboga was the line in the sand for me. In short, life is better, simpler, easier and happier. In today’s episode, I am exploring 10 ways that my life has changed after Iboga. I am also letting you in on how the integration journey has been for me.

What I talked about:
