Psychedelic Curious?

How to prepare for a psychedelic journey and avoid negative or even harmful outcomes, whilst maximizing the benefits both during and after the psychedelic journey. In this episode, we share a set of things to consider leading up to a psychedelic journey, whether that be a mushroom hike with your buddies, or a deep ayahuasca journey in the Amazon with shamans. The simple and easy-to-apply preparation steps are powerful because they help to bring structure and intention into the journey, so you can feel safer to let go and allow the medicine to work its magic.

Aria and Myrissa discuss the ins and outs of micro-dosing. What does the science say, how to do it effectively and what to expect. They also share personal accounts of their journeys with psychedelics, both at the micro and heroic doses, and how these experiences have helped them with their mental health, relationships and careers.

Sacred Waters Movement hosts a discussion for the Psychedelic Curious. This month we interview Chakaara Bliss, black community leader and psychedelic advocate, to discuss how the growing wave of psilocybin legalization can help black, indigenous and people of color (BIPOC) communities with generational trauma and unlocking levels of freedom and bliss.

Team, Timing and Luck: Listen to Steven Morley sharing four decades of tech success.

Steven is a true tech veteran who has spent a whopping 43 years developing new technologies and building winning technology companies. He was employee #10 at Qualcomm, and has advised over 125 startups and early-stage companies in his long and impressive career.

Steven shares wisdom and insights from decades growing and advising startups, and explores what it takes to succeed in technology.

Have you ever dreamed about creating an amazing technology product that will change the world, but then stopped when you realized 2 things: 1) you don't have any tech experience and 2) you don't have an audacious idea yet? Yes? Well, then listen up!

Sabrina Williams, founder of Benefit Corporation, Seed, is helping people grow their own food with their self-watering planter, the Seed Box. This is high-tech product that includes moisture sensors, an Arduino-controlled monitoring system, and will soon also connect to an app to allow you to monitor your plants wherever you are.

But Sabrina is no techie, or at least, she wasn't until recently! She's a lawyer, who spent decades in housing policy to empower underserved communities. So how did this non-profit mom end up inventing an incredible technology system and bringing it to market? This episode covers this incredible story of how Sabrina's own value system and understanding of herself led her to incredible success!

In our western culture, we think of technology as tools to help us explore and understand the world outside of ourselves, but an ancient plant medicine which has been used by South American Shamans for millennia might hold the key to an exploration of a different kind. Ayahuasca is a torch that lights a path inside of oneself, and as a result, brings forth the potential for incredible transformation!

Ben Ross is a PhD and multiple-time founder and CTO, and he is changing the world by doing powerful and important work on himself, and by sharing his own journey with the healing and life changing plant, Ayahuasca.

This episode is a deeply thoughtful and personal exploration of the role that Ayahuasca has played in our own lives, how it works on the brain in altering neural pathways and negative or harmful thought-patterns, and why we have chosen to speak out on this topic publicly. It delves into the inner-workings of the mind, the effect that set and setting have on the experience and outcomes, and shares some of the research and science behind this incredible technology.

This episode is the highlight of the season, and I am so excited to share it with all of you.

What would life be like if you had to throw everything you had at every single thing you did? How much could you experience if you had to go for it, and I mean REALLY go for it? What if you shattered everyone's expectations of you and broke through every glass ceiling that lay in your path?

Who would you be? What could we all stand to learn from someone like that?
