Send Us a Message!The most disorienting seasons of life often aren't the endings or the beginnings. They're the in between. That's where liminal space lives, and it's where so many of us either break open into a truer life or try to force ourselves back into the old one.In this episode, we'll explore:• defining liminal spaces as the in between where time slows and growth accelerates• using curiosity and metacognition to track reactions and rewrite old stories• working with archetypes, parts, and soul contracts to integrate the self• building energetic boundaries and differentiation to stay connected without shrinking• naming dissociation patterns and returning to presence in the physical realm• creating shared reality through collaboration instead of scarcityChristine Renee sits down with Lacee Gengenbacher to name what liminal spaces actually feel like: time standing still, identity shifting, and the Tower moment where what “worked” stops working. We talk honestly about how expansion can get tangled with a chronically activated nervous system, why calm can feel unsafe after chaos, and how to reframe growth so it doesn't require pain and suffering to be valid. Along the way, we dig into embodiment, nervous system safety, dissociation, and the practical power of curiosity and metacognition to track what's really happening when you feel triggered.We also connect the dots between parts work and spiritual practice, including archetypes, soul contracts, and Internal Family Systems style language. When the ground moves under you, the inner voices get louder, and we share ways to meet those parts with intention instead of judgment. A thread we keep coming back to is connection: you're only as connected to others as you are to yourself, and energetic boundaries help you stay in your truth without shutting down your light.We close by sharing what we're building in community: the Gathering of the Mystics summit in Bozeman, Montana, a three day container designed for safe exploration, real integration, and shared medicine through speakers, workshops, and intentional ritual.

A deadly outbreak begins with a single meal at a sushi restaurant in Bozeman, Montana. Within hours, diners develop severe nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Some collapse. Two people die. At first, it looks like food poisoning, but investigators quickly notice one strange ingredient connecting many of the sick patients: morel mushrooms.In the first episode of A Morel Dilemma, we meet the people caught in the earliest moments of the outbreak and begin following the investigation as it unfolds in real time. What starts as a suspected restaurant-associated illness quickly becomes a much stranger question: how could a prized edible mushroom, eaten for centuries, suddenly be linked to death?This is not a retrospective summary. It is the beginning of a poisoning mystery, told the way investigators experienced it: with urgency, uncertainty, and more questions than answers.Select referencesCDC Report on Bozeman Morel Mushroom OutbreakRat Poison Contaminated synthetic cannabisE cigarette and vaping assosciated lung injuryEnoki-Listeria outbreakAconite outbreak in Canada mentioned in the introductionArsenic Coffee Pot Poisoning in MaineLeongatha Mushroom MurdersA Morel DilemmaSupport the showReview the show where ever your listeningGet Messages from Toxo (Join the Newsletter!)Join as a supporting memberAd free episodesBonus content and early accessDiscounts and give aways on GOTA PICCEM Mushroom card gameThe GOTTA PICCEM Poisonous Mushroom Game!The Poisonus Fungus Amongus Children's Book!Full book reading (6 minutes!)Tox trinkets (Rep the show at home!)Reach the showEmail: Toxtalk1@gmail.comMore Show ResourcesRyan's Medical Games and ResourcesShow Website

As reports of severe illness and death come in, the Bozeman outbreak moves from medical mystery to full public health investigation. Local and state investigators race to identify the source, shut down the risk, interview patients, collect food samples, and figure out whether anyone else could still be in danger.The early signal points toward one unlikely ingredient: morel mushrooms. But for toxicologists, that raises more questions than answers. Morels are supposed to be edible. Rapid vomiting and diarrhea usually suggest foodborne illness, not a deadly mushroom poisoning. So investigators have to ask the question that will drive the rest of the series: is the morel really the culprit, or is something else hiding in the meal?In Episode 2 of A Morel Dilemma, we meet the public health team on the front lines, hear how the outbreak was contained, and begin testing the first theories behind what made diners so sick.Select references:False Morel Text BookFDA Survey of Imported Mushrooms Contamination with Toxic SpeciesDr. Vohra' studyBonus Episode on Remembering Toxic MushroomsDr. Stanton's Muscarine CaseBonus Episode on MuscarineA Morel DilemmaSupport the showReview the show where ever your listeningGet Messages from Toxo (Join the Newsletter!)Join as a supporting memberAd free episodesBonus content and early accessDiscounts and give aways on GOTA PICCEM Mushroom card gameThe GOTTA PICCEM Poisonous Mushroom Game!The Poisonus Fungus Amongus Children's Book!Full book reading (6 minutes!)Tox trinkets (Rep the show at home!)Reach the showEmail: Toxtalk1@gmail.comMore Show ResourcesRyan's Medical Games and ResourcesShow Website

Anger, silence, and shutdown can look like “bad communication,” but what if it's really fear, sadness, and pressure with nowhere to go? I sit down with Bozeman mental health therapist and Pre-licensed therapist, Adam Thorne to pull back the curtain on what men are struggling with right now, especially dads and partners trying to hold it all together. Adam is the host of Forging Forward, who also shares his podcast highlights at https://www.instagram.com/forgingforwardpodcast/.  Today, we talk honestly about loneliness, the weight of providing, and the expectation-versus-reality whiplash that leaves so many men feeling behind before they've even found their footing.Adam shares what he sees in men's groups and therapy: when men get the chance to express real emotion, the room doesn't judge it as weak, it recognizes it as brave. That single shift often brings immediate relief, better decision-making, and a clearer path forward. We also explore how “leaning into responsibility” can raise self-confidence and reduce the sense of overwhelm, not through toughness, but through grounded, consistent action that matches your values.If you're partnered with someone who gets angry or walls up, we dig into practical ways to respond: hold empathy, don't diagnose in the moment, and try to see the iceberg under the tip. The same skills that support sustainable parenting, balancing kindness with firmness, can also transform adult conflict into connection.If this resonates, subscribe, share this with a friend who needs it, and leave a review so more parents can find the show.✨Want more?  ✨JOIN me in an upcoming event: https://sustainableparenting.com/events✨ Get my 3 KEYS to Calm, Confident Parenting (30 min.

Will enjoys writing, watching films, hiking and traveling.    Will grew up in a strict, religious household. From middle school through high school, Will did homeschooling which left him feeling like he didn't really have any friends. By the time he was 15 or 16, he felt like he was missing out on a lot of life experiences. Will moved out of home with his brother when he turned 18 and says this is when his partying began as a way to make up for lost time.   Will began working in the food service industry and says it was his first taste of life outside of the religious bubble he had grown up in. While he had a level of social anxiety that kept him out of nightclubs and things of that nature, his brother enjoyed the nightlife and typically had alcohol in the house which Will would drink by himself.   Between the ages of 19 and 21, Will had found some friends he calls kindred spirits in that they were all creative and a little nerdy. He says his life was simple back then: go to work and then go hang out with his friends and play/watch video games while drinking.   At 22, Will got a DUI. This was not enough to make him feel like he needed to stop drinking but he thought he should try moderating. The financial struggles after the DUI were hard on Will and he was beginning to feel like he screwed his life up already. Between ages 22 and 24, Will references them as his rock bottom years. He was losing friends due to his behavior when he drank and felt haunted by social failures and missing opportunities.   Will tried going to therapy at 24 but didn't address his drinking at all. The anxiety and depression were crippling, and he began having suicidal ideations. Will tried going to AA but struggled not to focus on the things he didn't agree with. It was a TV series called Patrick Melrose that helped inspire Will to try something new. Will decided to try going to rehab.   Will started burning the ships with his family and the supervisory staff at his jobs so that he could plan to go to detox. He was there for nine days and says it was an amazing experience. He felt good about the decision to go and says he got a lot of out of it.   The cycle of starts and stops began, Will was trying to hide his drinking unsuccessfully. In this middle of this time, he had started dating someone and fell in love. They ended up moving in together. Will says the move was helpful for him, but he was still trying to drink and hide it from her.    The night before a planned trip to NYC, Will drank a couple of beers, and his girlfriend could smell it on him the next morning. They talked about it on the way to their Airbnb and Will spent his first day sober walking around the city. This experience left an impression on Will, and he recognized he could have fun sober and it made him crave more life experiences.   Will's girlfriend was very supportive; he returned to AA meetings and got a new therapist that specialized in addiction. After several months, he began taking classes for recovery support. An internship led to a job and Will says it was life changing.   Since being in recovery, Will says that his depression is gone and he is better at holding himself accountable in his life. A lot has happened since he quit drinking, but he feels that all of the challenges have made him stronger.   Recovery Elevator We took the elevator down. You've got to take the stairs back up.

He shares that he was stubborn at first, but now has made many friends in Café RE.   Linda attended treatment court with Jay but was trying to be a lone wolf. She didn't have a driver's license and found herself having to ask others for help. She found community in AA and NA/   Questions – What's your favorite recovery quote? One word to summarize your sobriety?   Linda – "it's only a thing if you make it a thing" and her word is "unbelievable"   Chris – "play the tape forward" and his word is "peaceful"   Jen – "keep it simple" and her word is "content"   Jay – "this too shall pass – the good and the bad" and his word is "serenity"   The panel shares their observations on the stigma around addiction decreasing and the increase of alcohol-free options when they go out. They all agree it is great to see that there are more options for people that don't want to drink and more and more places for opportunities to have mocktails while socializing and living life. Question – In a life without alcohol, has something surprised you?   Jen shares that she always loved to camp and the first time she went alcohol-free, she felt uncomfortable at first. She sees that she has more time to do the things she loves and try new things.   Chris says he has so much clarity and energy to do things. Having more time, flexibility and extra money has been nice.   Jay says a lot of his hobbies stayed the same, he just enjoys them more now. He realized he doesn't really like fishing after doing it for so many years. He has also found that he enjoys coaching his daughter's softball team.    Question – What advice do you have for the person that may be struggling to quit drinking?   Jay – you don't have to do it alone, you don't have to be ashamed   Jen – you can do it, and reach out   Chris – you don't have to do it alone, reach out and engage in a community   Linda – find one person that you can trust and start there.   [49:39] Thoughts from Paul:   The planet is currently giving out signs of distress, and all have anchoring to humans and what we have done to nature. Addiction may be the answer to this. When we stop poisoning ourselves with alcohol, a connection or reconnection with nature takes place.   Addiction, or the other side of addiction, is what connects our species back to the pulsations of the earth, animals, wind, sea and within our own hearts. Addiction and the healing that follows is what connects us back to ourselves, the planets, and the animals.   Recovery Elevator You took the elevator down. You've got to take the stairs back up.
