My guest today is Mikaela de la Myco. I was drawn to the way she presents herself as a mother in the psychedelic space through her platform, Mama de la Myco. I had every intention in having a conversation with her about psychedelic parenting. However, I threw out all my questions out the window and followed Mikaela’s energy; it was clear that Mikaela had so much to share with us about centering mothers, women, and indigenous voices in the psychedelic movement.
She lends us a perspective around how the psychedelic mainstream movement is falling short, and the reality of how indigenous people are treated in the psychedelic industry. In addition, we talk about how mushrooms are helping mothers through the challenges of the postpartum period, and how psychedelics might be useful for families.
Mikaela is currently pouring into the Mushrooms and Moms survey with support from Dr. Jim Fadiman and the Microdosing Institute. This project is surveying mothers and birthing people who consumed psilocybin mushrooms throughout their motherhood and parenting journey in order to accumulate a body of evidence for effects of psilocybin on birthing people, women and their children. If you’re a mother or birthing person, please consider contributing to this, linked n the show notes.

I smoked 5-MeO-DMT (synthetic Bufo/Toad Medicine) for the first time, to a full release. And in this episode I am sharing all about it. I let you in on the unfiltered details and share vulnerably about what drew me to this experience, the challenges I faced working with this medicine, how it went and what I learned.
5-MeO-DMT is a different class of drug from the Earth Medicines I am used to. I experienced this as "light medicine," as it facilitated a direct experience of connection with (not to) a higher power beyond this realm and beyond my comprehension. It was the single most mystical, holy, out of this world experience of my life, and I am still making sense of it.
I also debrief on how the retreat unfolded at Enfold Institute, where I went for this medicine.
For me, 5-MeO-DMT felt like that medicine I’ve been preparing for with all my other medicine work. If you are curious about this pure entheogenic medicine, tune in and perhaps plant a seed for you future self. Strap in, because we’re about to go on a ride together.

What is a challenging psychedelic experience? It turns out that it’s incredibly subjective. What one person finds challenging or bad, another may see as a growth opportunity.
But the current rhetoric around psychedelics presents them as mostly always good, positive, healing and helpful experiences. Jules Evans is dedicated to shining a light on the harms, challenges and dangers of psychedelics.
In this episode, Jules’ takes us through the most common post-trip challenges and offer support for those navigating these challenges. These include but are not limited to: Derealization and depersonalization, post-ecstatic blues, and alienation. We also have a fascinating conversation around sense making, when psychedelics ignite an existential paradigm shift, and over-dogmatism when interpreting psychedelic experiences.
Jules is a a researcher, writer, historian of ideas and practical philosopher. He is interested in ideas and practices which help being suffer less and flourish more. He has written two books, and is currently devoting his energy to the Challenging Psychedelic Experiences Project — researching psychedelic harm reduction, ethics and integration. They are currently researching post-trip difficulties and what helps people deal with them.

We have a veteran cannabis industry change-maker, advocate, and expert with us. With over 40 years of involvement with cannabis, Andrew DeAngelo has made a massive impact on the cannabis space. And the psychedelic space stands on the shoulders of the cannabis industry.
I had so much fun talking to Andrew DeAngelo (both our cheeks were hurting at the end of the interview from laughing and smiling so much). Which is fitting because we discuss how cannabis has a very humorous teaching style.
Cannabis is a medicine I love and have a beautiful relationship with, yet I actually don't know too much about it. So, it's an honor to be learning together with you, the listeners! You might be surprised at some of Andrew’s advice for approaching cannabis.
Expect to learn a lot, be inspired by Andrew's presence, and be straight-up entertained with his “war on drugs” era stories.

After 30+ ayahuasca journeys, I finally got to experience the Shipibo medicine with a direct lineage. It was a beautiful experience and a lot has changed for me since then. Overall, I feel ligher, brighter, and more comfortable in my skin. In this episode, I am giving you an integration update: what exactly has changed for me, what steps have I taken to integrate the insights, and what's different about me as a person?
I hope this episode inspire you to continue to learn and grow with plant medicines. I started sitting with ayahuasca years ago when I was totally broken, and even though I am not in that place anymore, the plants continue to teach and guide me. No matter where we are in our journey, the plants have so much to teach us.
If you haven't listened to the journey reports, check out episode 60 & 64 (linked in the show notes). Thank you to Reunion and their team for facilitating a transformative and important experience in my life. To learn more about Reunion, a not for profit medicine center, listen to episode 69 and check out their website (linked in show notes).

Could this succulent from South Africa be a daily ally for managing anxiety and depression? Research says yes. Some of the active alkaloids found in Kanna have been well researched and are now prescribed for treating such mental health conditions. Not only is Kanna well researched, it is also legal and has very low risk profile.
Kanna is an empathogen, meaning it increases feelings of connection and empathy towards oneself and others. Rather than being a deep and intense psychedelic experience, Kanna is more often used as a gentle daily support. While it has been used ceremonially in high doses within indigenous cultures, Kanna also offers support as a supplement (microdose) rather than a high dose experience.
Delivering all this fascinating information to us is Ryan Latreille, founder of TWO Kanna companies. He tell us everything we need to know about this plant, in addition to how it has a use case in recreational settings, replacing other more toxic substances. We also cover indigenous use, contraindications, empathogens vs psychedelics, and so much more!
I am SO excited about Kanna, and I know you will be too after listening to this episode. Don't forget to share it with a friend who might find this information valuable!

Who knew that connection to music could get you to the point of having a psychedelic ego death and integrating your inner darkness? Or that a psychedelic experience at a music festival could help you understand the unintegrated darkness within humanity?
Today I am sharing the story of my very first psychedelic ego death, which lead to profound insights and new understanding of my own human depth. I touch on the mind & spiritual prep I did, setting, what I gained from the experience, and my integration process.

Courtney Barnes is a attorney in the psychedelic & cannabis space. She thought she was "good" ... until she wasn't. Today, she is sharing her story of taking a step back from lawyering, in order to go inward. She shares about how her recent Ibogaine & Ayahuasca journeys have illuminated the depth of this work. As a result, she is better able to understand the nuances of policy and regulation around psychedelics.
One of the important lessons she learned is the importance of incorporating preparation, integration & harm reduction within policy frameworks. Her story shows how important it is for people in the psychedelic space to have an understanding of psychedelic altered states , as we’re creating a totally new medical and therapeutic paradigm unlike ever before.
This episode is a testament to how important it is for people working in the psychedelic space -- especially within regulatory roles -- to actually understand what its like to go deep with psychedelics. Courtney also provides listeners with the latest updates in policy and regulation.
