Comedian and mother, Negin Farsad, got a strange assignment - one that sent her on an unexpected trip– a trippy trip– a hero's quest– into the depths of her unconscious mind... where it turned out, all the monsters of motherhood were there waiting for her.Four years out from giving birth, Negin hadn't thought she was avoiding a whole lot.  In fact as a comedian, she considered it her job to reveal the hardest things about her life on stage every night–to turn them into jokes. She had even turned her harrowing birth into laughs.  But little did she know how much was still lurking in the dark unknown.  How much there was to discover.  How much there was to heal.She told us all about it. This conversation is really special, because Tash and Julia got to talk to Negin together!Check out Negin's comedy.  Neginfarsad.com; @neginfarsad  She's hilarious!And the article that she wrote for Afar magazine about this trip.Mother is a Question is created by Natasha Haverty and Julia Metzger-Traber. Our editor is Rob Rosenthal.Original Music by Raky Sastri and Julia Read; other music by APMManager of The Big Questions Project: Courtney FleurantinCoordinating Producer: Emmanuel DesarmePost-Production Audio Engineer : Sandra Lopez-MonsalveExecutive Producer: Genevieve SponslerArt by Richard GrayFollow us on instagram @motherisaquestion

The science increasingly points to a very positive link between (responsibly and professionally administered) psilocybin - or 'magic mushrooms' - and mental health. After reading American-Iranian comedian, writer, and actor Negin Farsad's experience on a Jamaican psychedelic retreat, written for AFAR, I talked to both Negin, and CEO/Head-facilitator of Mycomeditations, Justin Townsend about psychedelics, mental health, and creativity. This is a warm, deep, intriguing insight into the world of fungi and the human experience, which touches upon Jungian depth psychology, the default mode network, and the things that hold us back from our optimal creativity.
