After lots of thought and deliberation, the girls have decided to retire the podcast. There are still a few more sessions to come so fret not! But be sure to stay tuned for the last few episodes because, just like the Eras Tour, the last few shows will be extra special. For example, in this week's episode, Brianna and Paije unpack one of Taylor's most gut-wrenching track fives: tolerate it--- a song that, obviously, neither of them can relate to at all in the slightest way.

Paije Alexandra West is bringing this forward for us today as an international retreat host, experienced psychedelic facilitator, and trained doula. Paije shares her thoughts on how the principles of doula care can be seamlessly integrated into psychedelic work to create compassionate, supportive, and transformative experiences.Paije educates us on the guiding principles of the doula model, emphasizing the importance of advocacy, mindful presence, and compassionate support in psychedelic facilitation. She discusses the advantages this model offers to Western medicine providers, particularly around how this approach allows Westerners to serve (some) psychedelic medicines without appropriating cultures that don't belong to us.
