I am beyond excited to introduce you to one of the most incredible humans I have ever met, Jeff Holoubek, on the podcast today.

Jeff is an integrationist with many years of experience in the psychedelic wellness space and is an expert on 5-MeO-DMT and the Bufo alvarius toad. I've had the pleasure of working with Jeff several times, including when we sat together with Ayahuasca in the jungles of Peru!

In this episode, we discuss what toad medicine is, synthetic vs organic 5-MeO, and the role of psychedelics in rebuilding community, deepening connection to all things, and as a sacred tool for personal healing.

If you're like me, you grew up looking to other people for the answers. You were told that someone else usually knew best, so you followed their lead. You weren't often empowered to make decisions based on what felt right in your gut.

In this episode, I'll share a recent experience that led to me asking myself:

WHY is it so hard for me to trust my own intuition?

We'll grapple with this question today and I'll share some tips to help you overthink less and trust yourself more.

This is the first *guest* episode of the podcast in quite some time and WOW was it worth the wait! Let's welcome holistic psychotherapist, facilitator of yoga, meditation and breathwork, and my plant medicine ceremony sister Evie O'Connor.

Press play for a free flowing conversation exploring how to recenter and open your soul's channel, embody your unique voice, and release the pressures of every day life.

Evie also shares a powerful perspective on anxiety & mental health difficulties and how healing is not about extinguishing the fires of our pain, but allowing those fires transform and inform us; to initiate us deeper into our true nature.

I'm entering my last month of pregnancy and what a wild ride it's been! Today on the podcast, I'm sharing my favorite tools for preparing the mind for birth and how I've been transforming my conditioned fears into excitement for our girl's upcoming birthday. We'll chat about my babymoon in Mexico and how much I loved hosting a Blessingway in place of a baby shower.

In this episode, I'm taking you on an adventure through all of my kidney woes during pregnancy. This is the resource I wish I would have had when I first was diagnosed with severe hydronephrosis in the ER at 17 weeks pregnant. I'm sharing what I went through to hopefully help someone else on their journey.

We'll cover my diagnosis, the three procedures that followed, nephrostomy tube vs ureteral stent pros and cons based on my experience having both, and my eventual kidney surgery (pyeloplasty) at 22 weeks pregnant.

I hope this helps you if you're going through something similar. Stay strong mama! You WILL make it to the other side!
