Menopause isn't just a biological transition - it's an awakening. In this Hol+ episode, Dr. Taz sits down with Kelly McGinty and Dr. Patricia Singh, co-founders of Trip Home and co-authors of “My Solo P: Uncovering the Magic of Menopause through Psilocybin,” to explore how psychedelic-assisted therapy and holistic healing are reshaping the way we talk about women's health, mental well-being, and midlife transformation.Together, they dive into the science and spirituality of psilocybin, how microdosing and medicinal mushrooms can support emotional balance, and why this powerful approach is giving women permission to reclaim joy, presence, and purpose.From the challenges of legal access and stigma to deeply personal stories of healing from burnout, trauma, and self-judgment, this conversation invites us to see menopause not as an ending - but as an initiation into freedom, wisdom, and wholeness.Dr. Taz, Kelly, and Dr. Singh discuss:The intersection of science, spirit, and women's healthHow psychedelics and psilocybin therapy can ease menopause symptoms and emotional transitionsHealing from trauma, burnout, and identity lossSafe and ethical practices for microdosing and harm reductionThe power of self-awareness, community, and holistic self-careWhether you're curious about psychedelics, navigating menopause, or seeking new paths to mental health and balance, this episode is a roadmap to rediscovery and transformation.Get the book: Mycelopause at https://store.bookbaby.com/book/mycelopause. Learn more: triphomelife.comChapters00:00 Introduction & Welcome00:31 Meet the Guests: Dr. Patricia Singh & Kelly McGinty01:52 Why Psilocybin and Menopause?03:07 History of Medicinal Mushrooms & Psychedelics07:13 Burnout, Trauma, and the Path to Psychedelic Therapy10:49 How Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy Works14:41 The Science Behind Psilocybin16:41 Access, Safety, and Legalization19:07 Who Should (and Shouldn't) Consider Psychedelic Therapy?21:18 Women, Hormones, and the Menopausal Journey25:59 Self-Care, Self-Awareness, and Transformation29:47 Trauma, Menopause, and Healing the Body36:47 Client Stories & Real-Life Transformations39:01 The Book: Myceliopa & Trip Home's Mission42:01 Changing the Conversation Around Menopause44:37 Where to Learn More & Final Thoughts46:06 What Makes You Hol?Stay ConnectedSubscribe to the audio podcast: https://holplus.transistor.fm/subscribeSubscribe to the video podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@DrTazMD/podcastsFollow Dr. Taz on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drtazmd/https://www.instagram.com/liveholplus/Join the conversation on X: https://x.com/@drtazmdTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drtazmdFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/drtazmd/Host & Production TeamHost: Dr. Taz; Produced by Rainbow Creative (Executive Producer: Matthew Jones; Lead Producer: Lauren Feighan; Editors: Jeremiah Schultz and Patrick Edwards)Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell to stay updated on future episodes of hol+

“When I was in medical school, no one had even heard of mitochondrial disease. Today, every student who graduates here knows what it is and has seen a patient with it,” says Dr. Mary Kay Koenig, director of the Center for the Treatment of Pediatric Neurodegenerative Disease at UTHealth Houston McGovern Medical School. That remarkable change in awareness has been accompanied by advances in genetic sequencing, the development of clinical guidelines, and the emergence of potential treatments in some forms of mitochondrial disease. In fact, Dr. Koenig's multidisciplinary team at UTHealth's Mitochondrial Center of Excellence has been a key player in clinical trials that may yield the first FDA-approved treatments for it. As you'll learn in this Year of the Zebra conversation with host Michael Carrese, her work in neurodegenerative diseases also includes tuberous sclerosis, where advanced therapies have replaced the need for repeated surgeries, and Leigh Syndrome, which has seen improvements in diagnoses and supportive therapies leading to better quality of life for patients.  Tune in as Dr. Koenig reflects on an era of progress in the space, the rewards of balancing research, teaching and patient care, and the need for more clinicians to center listening, humility and honesty in their approach to caring for rare disease patients and their  families.Mentioned in this episode:Mitochondrial Center of ExcellenceCenter for the Treatment of Pediatric Neurodegenerative Disease If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

In this episode of The Observatory, Scott and LaRae share powerful insights about breaking through cognitive rigidity and embracing authentic self-expression. LaRae opens up about meaningful conversations with her siblings that sparked deeper reflection, while exploring Dr. Todd Rose's research on how we perceive differences versus similarities in others. They also examine the striking statistic that only 10% of people create 80% of social media content, revealing how cognitive rigidity keeps most of us silent and conforming.Timestamp[07:09] The meaningful interactions that LaRae had with her siblings[08:32] Mel Robbins podcast episode with Dr. Todd Rose[11:00] The statistic of 10% of people sharing 80% of the content on Social Media[13:11] Cognitive rigidity[18:14] The power of authenticity[31:40] The importance of listening and trusting your intuition[35:50] A challenge for the weekNotable quotes:“We are more similar than we are different.” - LaRae Wright [09:44]“Authenticity is compelling because it brings us to our present selves all the time with one another.” - LaRae Wright [19:30]Relevant links:Subscribe to the podcast: Apple Podcast

“Giving learners options gives them a better learning experience. It's more holistic and more comprehensive,” says Sean Moloney, CEO and founder of EmbodyXR, an extended reality platform focused on the use of immersive technologies in medical education. In this eye-opening Raise the Line conversation, Moloney explains how AI-powered extended reality (XR) --which integrates augmented, virtual, and simulation-based environments -- allows learners to interact with patients, explore multiple diagnostic choices, and experience varied outcomes based on their decisions. The result, he notes, is not only stronger engagement in learning, but a measurable improvement in understanding. Despite these gains, Moloney is quick to point out that he sees these technologies as complements to traditional training, not substitutes for it. “We'll never replace in-person teaching,” he says, “but we can make learners even better.” Beyond training future clinicians, the EmbodyXR platform is also offering new modes of patient and caregiver education, such as augmented reality guidance for using medical devices at home. Join host Lindsey Smith as she explores how EmbodyXR achieves and maintains clinical accuracy, the connectivity it offers between headsets, personal computers and mobile devices, and other capabilities that are shaping the future of how healthcare professionals and patients will learn. Mentioned in this episode:EmbodyXR If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Why has America struggled so much to effectively manage the opioid use crisis? One of the answers, as you'll learn in this eye-opening episode of Raise the Line, is rooted in laws and attitudes from the early 20th century that removed addiction from the realm of medicine and defined it as a moral failing.  “The federal Harrison Act of 1914 forbade any physician from prescribing opioids to people with addiction, so it became more the purview of law enforcement or behavioral health or religion,” says Dr. Melody Glenn, who regularly confronts the consequences of this history during shifts in the emergency department at Banner-University Medical Center in Tucson, Arizona. And as Glenn explains to host Caleb Furnas, the resulting stigma associated with addiction has extended to the treatments for it as well, especially methadone, despite its effectiveness. Drawing on her dual expertise in emergency and addiction medicine, Glenn dispels misconceptions that medication-assisted treatment merely replaces one addiction with another, and emphasizes that harm reduction is critical to saving lives. Her desire to break prevailing stigmas led her to discover the story of Dr. Marie Nyswander, who pioneered methadone maintenance therapy in the 1960s and is featured in Dr. Glenn's new book, Mother of Methadone: A Doctor's Quest, a Forgotten History, and a Modern-Day Crisis. You'll leave this instructive interview understanding the roots of our flawed approach to addiction treatment, meeting an overlooked pioneer in the field, and admiring a devoted and compassionate physician who is following in her footsteps.  Mentioned in this episode:Banner-University Medical CenterMother of Methadone book If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Kim Meka shares her journey from narcissistic abuse to healing through plant medicine and radical self-discovery. After escaping a controlling marriage that stripped away her identity, Kim found restoration through ketamine, ayahuasca, and psilocybin therapies. She also discovered her ruptured breast implants were contributing to systemic inflammation, leading to their removal and a profound shift in her relationship with self-image and authenticity. 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS Narcissistic abuse is about control, not ego - True narcissism is a personality disorder where abusers systematically isolate victims from support systems, control finances, and erode self-worth through manipulation and gaslighting. Plant medicine can reset the nervous system - Kim's PTSD and trauma were effectively treated through ketamine (for depression), ayahuasca (for self-love and inner child healing), and psilocybin (for complete PTSD resolution). Physical and mental trauma are interconnected - Kim's ruptured breast implants went undetected for years, contributing to systemic inflammation that mirrored her emotional state during trauma. Healing requires integration work - While plant medicine provided breakthroughs, lasting healing came from daily practices: journaling, meditation, exercise, and surrounding herself with authentic relationships. Rock bottom can be a foundation for transformation - Losing everything—money, possessions, identity—forced Kim to rebuild authentically, leading to deeper fulfillment than her previous "perfect" life ever provided. FEATURED PRODUCT Bliss - Kim's journey highlights how trauma creates chronic stress and nervous system dysregulation. Bliss supports adrenal function and helps regulate cortisol levels—essential for recovering from trauma and managing the daily stress of healing work discussed in this episode.

“We don't view a person with chronic pain as someone who has a chronic illness and the effect of that is we can't follow patients continuously over prolonged periods of time,” says Dr. Jacob Hascalovici, a neurologist and pain specialist based in New York City.  In co-founding Bliss Health, Dr. Jacob, as he is known, has set out to create a continuous care model for chronic pain treatment that matches the approach taken for patients with diabetes or high blood pressure. The Bliss Health formula includes an initial meeting with a physician that produces a care plan; remote therapeutic monitoring on an ongoing basis; and a monthly meeting with a nurse to review data and determine next steps, including additional appointments with physicians as needed.  All of this occurs via a digital platform which provides a welcome option for patients with mobility issues and can fill gaps in access to specialists, especially in rural areas. Dr. Jacob is also hoping to make chronic pain patents feel respected, which is not always the case in their encounters with the healthcare system. “Because pain is not something that can be seen or measured, oftentimes patients feel marginalized, dismissed and disempowered by providers.” Join Raise the Line host Lindsey Smith for a valuable conversation that also touches on policy changes that could strengthen telemedicine, and has details on the first non-opioid based pain medication to receive FDA approval in over 20 years.Mentioned in this episode:Bliss Health If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

In recent months, public health advocates in the United States have raised concerns about proposed changes to vaccine policy, cuts to food assistance programs, rollbacks of environmental protections and reductions in public health staffing. Chief among them has been Dr. Georges Benjamin who, as executive director of the American Public Health Association (APHA) since 2002, has led national efforts to create a healthier America. Raise the Line host Lindsey Smith recently sat down with Dr. Benjamin to understand more about the current state of public health and explore the path forward, and learned that a top priority for APHA is battling the misinformation that Dr. Benjamin believes is fueling support for many of these changes. “The challenge we have right now is that as a society, we've gone into our little corners and live in our own ecosystems. More people are getting their information from a single source and they're not validating that information to make sure that it's true.” Tune into this thoughtful and timely conversation to hear Dr. Benjamin's advice for curbing the spread of misinformation, how APHA is trying to help people understand the value of public health initiatives, and what the U.S. can learn from other countries about improving public health. Mentioned in this episode:American Public Health Association If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

⚠️ WARNING: This episode will challenge everything you think you know about health. “Obesity kills more people worldwide every year than car crashes, terrorism, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and malnutrition combined.” In this eye-opening episode of Start Today, I bring you Dr. Saman Soleymani—a no-BS physician and entrepreneur running over a dozen practices—who exposes how Big Pharma and Big Food profit from disease while ignoring the #1 factor that could save your life: nutrition. From the obesity epidemic to GLP-1 drugs, testosterone, antidepressants, and birth control, Dr. Soleymani rips the lid off the lies that are killing people every single day. We uncover why waist size is the ultimate death predictor, how visceral fat destroys men's hormones, why SSRIs don't cure depression, the promising science of psilocybin, and the dangerous side effects of hormonal birth control that no one talks about. No fluff. No sugarcoating. Just the truth you need if you want to take back control of your body, your health, and your future.

In this episode Rotem Petranker, PhD joins to discuss the current state of research on microdosing psilocybin. Dr. Petranker is the co-founder of the Psychedelic Studies Research Program at the University of Toronto and the Canadian Centre for Psychedelic Science. He recently ran the world's largest randomized controlled trial on the effectiveness of microdosing psilocybin on Major Depressive Disorder. In this conversation, Dr. Petranker shares insights from running the world's largest randomized controlled trial on psilocybin microdosing for major depressive disorder. He explains the origins of microdosing research, from early anecdotes and surveys to his team's carefully designed clinical study comparing psilocybin to placebo across different environments. While participants in both groups reported significant improvements, the findings point to the powerful role of expectancy and placebo effects, alongside nuanced signals of cognitive shifts on measures like dysfunctional attitudes. Dr. Petranker emphasizes the importance of rigorous methodology, open science, and transparency in psychedelic research, while also acknowledging the stories of participants whose lives were positively impacted by study participation itself.   In this episode, you'll hear: What early microdosing research suggested, and its limitations in anecdotal and survey-based designs Why psilocybin was chosen over LSD for the study design  What motivates people to try microdosing a psychedelic Key results from Dr. Petranker's study, including reports of both positive and adverse events How placebo effects—and simply being part of a trial—can powerfully shape outcomes Reflections on how psychedelics may work by increasing connectedness   Quotes: “There's no real rigorous definition [of microdosing]. People say, ‘oh, I'm just going to microdose some mushrooms,' and then they often take a random amount. I think what people mean is ‘I'm going to take an amount that will not knock me out, won't cause serious hallucinations,' but they still use an amount that they often feel. Now, this is in contrast to what people in the [academic] literature define it as, which is more like a sub-perceptual dose, a sub-hallucinogenic dose.” [2:17] “If you microdose and go to work, just to sit under the flickering lights for eight hours in your cubicle versus, say, if you're going to microdose and then go on a walk, or do art, or do as you wish because it's the weekend, you're going to have very different impacts on your anxiety.” [15:26] “[In our study] there were three other self-report measures of depression. There is only a significant difference on one of them, where people who were microdosing were doing better. And that was on the dysfunctional attitude scale, which measures more cognitive assumptions about life.” [26:2] “people who microdose—regardless of why they microdose—they more or less all said that they got to what they wanted through an increased sense of meaning.” [35:05]   Links: Psychedelic Studies Research Program at the University of Toronto Canadian Centre for Psychedelic Science website Canadian Centre for Psychedelic Science on X Canadian Centre for Psychedelic Science on Instagram Previous episode: Microdosing and the Placebo Effect with Balazs Szigeti, PhD Previous episode: James Fadiman answers your Microdosing Questions!

“Probably the most exciting thing I've seen in gene therapy over the last ten years is we now have a lot of tools for selective delivery, which will hopefully make treatments more safe and a lot more successful,” says Dr. Jessica Duis, a geneticist and pediatrician focused on the management of individuals with complex, rare disorders. Dr. Duis, who has worked on several gene therapies that are now approved or progressing through the accelerated approval pathway, is currently VP of Clinical Development at GondolaBio, a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing therapeutics for genetic diseases. As you'll learn in this Year of the Zebra episode with host Lindsey Smith, Dr. Duis is encouraged by other recent advances in genetic technology as well, and thinks momentum will grow as breakthrough treatments emerge. “I think we're hopefully going to continue to see companies that are working in rare disease be more successful and really drive how regulators think about making decisions in terms of bringing treatments to patients. I think we're at the tip of the iceberg in terms of the future of truly transformational therapies.”  This wide ranging conversation also explores Dr. Duis' team approach to patient care, her work on clinical endpoints, the importance of patient communities, and her book series, Rare Siblings Stories.Mentioned in this episode:GondolaBioRareDiseaseDocElsevier Healthcare Hub on Rare DiseasesRare Sibling Stories If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Weltweit, auch in der Schweiz, erleben psychedelische Substanzen ein Revival. LSD, MDMA und Psilocybin – manchmal auch in Microdosen – sind aus der Partyszene nicht mehr wegzudenken. Aber auch im medizinischen Kontext werden sie immer häufiger gegen Depressionen oder Suchtkrankheiten eingesetzt. Die Schweiz mischt ganz vorne mit. Mit Ausnahmebewilligungen dürfen Psychiater und Psychologen LSD, MDMA, Ayahuasca oder Psilocybin einsetzen. Das Universitätsspital Genf hat eine eigene Abteilung dafür geschaffen und bildet Medizinstudierende entsprechend aus. Halluzinogene werden auch weiter erforscht, um Medikamente zur Behandlung von Depressionen, Ängsten, posttraumatischen Belastungsstörungen oder Suchterkrankungen herzustellen. Auf dem globalen Pharma-Markt winkt damit das grosse Geschäft, denn immer mehr Menschen haben psychische Probleme. Braucht es heute Tabletten oder einfach Ekstase, um das durchgetaktetes Leben auszuhalten? Ist die so erzielte Verbundenheit mit der Natur effektiv ein Weg zur psychischen Heilung und zu einer besseren Welt? Oder ist dieser neue Hype nur eine weitere Kommerzialisierung der Natur, bei der einige wenige Firmen grosse Gewinne machen? Der Film von Michèle Sauvain zeigt, wo die Schweiz steht.

In this episode, I invited Britton and Carolee Beckham to share how they moved from six-generation Mormon conditioning to a sovereign, heart-led union. Their story begins with a psilocybin journey that shifted how they saw their church, opening a path through grief into clarity and personal truth. We also sit with the courageous healing that followed repeated infidelity—how they chose to face the pain, tell the truth, and keep listening to love.Together, we unpack what sovereignty really means in partnership, why consent is a living practice, and the difference between hierarchy and healthy power in sacred sexuality spaces. The Beckhams explain their commitment to emotional monogamy while allowing playful social containers, and how deep shadow work, embodiment, and honest agreements helped them rebuild safety, desire, and trust from the inside out.We also explore parenting four kids without shame—normalizing bodies, teaching consent early, and fostering open, curious dialogue at home. Now guiding others through Ritual Shadow Work with astrology and lunar cycles, Britton and Carolee offer a grounded blueprint for choosing love, freedom, and integrity—within yourself and in union.Chapters0:00 - Introduction to Our Guests from Colorado2:30 - Realizing the Desire for a Different Path8:34 - Navigating the Exit from Mormonism13:47 - Historical Context of Polygamy in Mormonism18:17 - Sacred Sexuality and Emotional Intelligence24:35 - Exploring Sexual Sovereignty and Polyamory31:57 - Embarking on a Healing Journey32:36 - Understanding Masculine and Feminine Dynamics33:44 - Balancing Sovereignty and Freedom in Relationships42:26 - Union in Polyamory46:17 - Owning Infidelities and Relationship Growth52:01 - Releasing Judgments for Personal Freedom52:28 - Parenting and Conversations About Sexuality56:02 - A Story of Protection and Awareness in Parenting

With nearly one in ten newborns in the US requiring care in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, the importance of NICUs has never been more clear. On today's episode of Raise the Line, we're shining a light on the extraordinary world of NICUs with Lindsay Howard, a veteran nurse with over 17 years of experience caring for premature and critically ill infants. She currently works in a Level IV NICU at Children's Memorial Hermann Hospital in Houston, one of the most advanced neonatal units in the country. “We call ourselves ‘the ER of the neonate world' because we're never full. We have to make space no matter what comes in off the street, and at the biggest medical center in the world, we see all the things,” she explains. In this enlightening conversation with host Lindsey Smith, Howard describes how advances in medicine have made it possible to provide more types of care for younger and smaller babies, creating a need for NICU nurses to develop subspecialties. In her case, Howard is on a dedicated team that handles the placement and maintenance of all central line IVs, and has earned certifications in neonatal and pediatric chemotherapy and biotherapies. “We see babies that we may not have seen before being born with cancerous tumors who need chemotherapy to try and eliminate it, or just give them more time with their family.” This is a revealing look inside the workings of a top tier NICU where you'll learn about approaches to care that support healthy neurodevelopment, how clinical staff handle the emotional challenges of the job, and how her own experience as a mother with twins needing NICU care impacted her work.  Mentioned in this episode:Children's Memorial Hermann Hospital If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Key Points Robin Swan explains her indigenous background and lifelong experience with psychotropic substances through the Native American church, having used peyote since childhood and incorporating psilocybin into her apothecary practice since 2014.Psilocybin mushrooms grow on every continent making them an open practice for humanity, with mycelium mapping similarly to the human central nervous system and representing the first life form to emerge from water according to creation theory.Depression and brain cancers became the primary focus for incorporating psilocybin into Swan's practice because cannabis wasn't adequately addressing these conditions, particularly given that mushrooms create neuroplasticity and open new neural pathways.Working with NFL players and pro sports athletes for 15 years revealed that psilocybin significantly helped traumatic brain injury and concussion recovery where cannabis had limited effectiveness.One unnamed NFL commentator client with 12 concussions showed dramatic improvement within three weeks of psilocybin microdosing, regaining speech clarity, eliminating blank stares, and completely stopping massive migraines that pharmaceuticals couldn't treat.Different psilocybin mushroom varieties serve distinct therapeutic purposes, with cubensis being electric and external for traditional psychedelic experiences, while azurescens provide internal experiences that create neuroplasticity specifically beneficial for brain cancer patients.Clinical studies from Johns Hopkins University, Harvard, and Emory University have documented psilocybin's therapeutic potential across 170 studies covering treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, PTSD, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, chronic pain, and immune system modulation.Parkinson's disease treatment with psilocybin shows remarkable results in reducing shakiness and mood swings while helping patients navigate daily challenges, while Alzheimer's patients become more fluid and maintain better memory connections.Psilocin, the active ingredient in psilocybin, remains active for only three days once extracted and requires specific ingestion methods, with lemon juice extraction providing faster onset within 15 minutes compared to capsules taking up to four hours.Swan Apothecary offers various psilocybin products including capsules, chocolate bars, lemon-extracted psilocin products, and a "hero dose" journey product containing 3.5 grams, all requiring two years of research and development before market release.Cannabis and psilocybin produce completely different experiences, with cannabis providing cannabinoid profiles while mushrooms maintain individual properties and create visions, heart-opening effects, and consciousness expansion that may have driven human evolution from apes.Common misconceptions about psilocybin include fears of wall-melting hallucinations and bad experiences, though the substance is safer than LSD as a natural fungus lasting 4-6 hours with potential weeks-long afterglow effects.Proper dosing and timing matter significantly for psilocybin effectiveness, with insufficient doses or full stomachs preventing activation, while the substance helps end-of-life patients live longer and have meaningful conversations with loved ones.Swan emphasizes that mushrooms help people embrace living in the present moment rather than fighting for future life, citing client Sally who lived nine years beyond her initial diagnosis and taught the importance of conscious, empowered living during terminal illness.

Send us a textIn today's episode of the Psychedelic Therapy Frontiers podcast we discuss a paper recently published in JAMA (Journal of the American Medical Association) entitled, “Single Treatment With MM120 (Lysergide) in Generalized Anxiety Disorder: A Randomized Clinical Trial.” This is a report on the results from Mind Medicine's phase 2b clinical trial that Reid and I both had the pleasure of working on at Numinus Network's clinical trial site, Cedar Clinical Research. We discuss what GAD is, a brief history of LSD, why LSD might be helpful for anxiety, the study design, the difference between session monitoring vs psychedelic-assisted therapy, and more. Near the end of the episode we briefly discuss another recently published paper, this one on psilocybin and how the phenomenology of a psychedelic experience might contribute to positive psychological changes. For those of you who are new to the show, welcome!

We are doing something special in celebreation of episode 200. Instead of an interview, I recorded a straight-talk lecture on psychedelics. Together, we are going to explore what psychedelics are; why they are so interesting to research; and the chemistry, pharmacology, phenomenology, history, and current research on Psilocybin, DMT, MDMA, Ketamine, and Ibogaine.

In this episode of The Observatory, Scott and LaRae discuss the purpose of alchemy, which aims to liberate the entire individual self, including the parts held in darkness. Hear how you can transform your best self into your soul self, what makes life sacred, and the practice of paying attention and being present. They also share the areas in their life that have turned from lead to gold and the upcoming ‘You are the Medicine' retreat. Timestamps[03:31] Transforming your best self into your soul self[03:56] What makes life sacred?[07:21] The practice of paying attention and being present [13:08] Scott's memory of turning bricks into gold[14:28] About the book: The Alchemist[19:21] The areas in LaRae's life that have turned from lead to gold[25:55] The areas in Scott's life that have turned from lead to gold[31:37] The year of alchemy for all the listeners[34:11] ‘You are the medicine' retreatNotable quotes:“It's important in our lives to have something that nourishes our souls.” - Scott Wright [30:52]“It's less about doing and more about being, creating from a place of presence.” - Scott Wright [31:22]Relevant links:Subscribe to the podcast: Apple PodcastProduced by NC Productions!

“When you think about where we were as a country before Medicare and Medicaid were created and where we are now, it's an incredible story,” says Chiquita Brooks-LaSure, who until earlier this year was the administrator for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). In a recent essay for The Century Foundation, where she is now a senior fellow, Brooks-LaSure used the 60th anniversary of enactment of those foundational insurance programs to help put their impact on individual Americans, the healthcare system and society at large in perspective. One prominent example is the desegregation of hospitals, which was achieved in part by withholding reimbursements for care unless facilities served Blacks as well as whites. Another is making it possible for more people with disabilities to live at home instead of in institutional settings. But as you'll hear in this probing Raise the Line conversation with host Lindsey Smith, Brooks-LaSure worries that many gains in coverage and other progress made over the years through Medicare, Medicaid and the Child Health Insurance Program (CHIP) are at risk because of a new federal law that calls for a trillion dollar decrease in spending, resulting in potentially millions of people losing their coverage, cuts to clinical staff and medical services, and the closure of hospitals and clinics, especially in rural areas. “Most rural hospitals in this country are incredibly dependent on both Medicare and Medicaid to keep their doors open and there's an estimate that over 300 hospitals will close as a result of this legislation, so that, I think, is a place of incredible nervousness.” Whether you are a patient, provider, policymaker or health system leader, this is a great opportunity to learn from an expert source about the range of potential impacts that will flow from changes to critically important insurance programs that provide coverage to 40% of adults and nearly 50% of children in the U.S. Mentioned in this episode:The Century FoundationEssay on 60th Anniversary of Medicare & Medicaid If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

In this episode, Eva sits down with Patty and Michael, a couple who have returned to Flow Life retreats multiple times - both individually and together. Patty and Michael first joined us a year ago at the couples retreat. Later, Patty attended a women's retreat and most recently they returned as a couple for another transformative experience. They share their heartfelt reflections on how this medicine and the retreat container have supported their healing, growth, and connection as partners. Their take-a-way highlights how real people, not just research participants, are finding lasting change through these experiences. Recent studies show that even a single dose of psilocybin can ease depression for up to five years, reduce heavy drinking by half, and bring profound relief for those living with anxiety, PTSD, and more. Patty and Michael's journey brings these findings to life in a deeply personal way.

Send us a textAging, tissue repair, and the longevity benefits of psilocin.Episode Summary: Dr. Louise Hecker discusses her research on tissue repair and regeneration, explaining how fibroblasts drive wound healing by forming scar tissue but fail to resolve properly with age, leading to fibrotic diseases like pulmonary fibrosis and liver cirrhosis; they discuss aging hallmarks such as oxidative stress and telomere shortening, and highlight Hecker's study showing psilocybin's active metabolite, psilocin, extends cellular lifespan in lab cultures by reducing oxidants and preserving telomeres, while monthly doses in aged mice improved appearance and survival rates.About the guest: Louise Hecker, PhD is an Associate Professor of Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine, specializing in repair and regeneration processes, particularly in aging and fibrotic diseases.Discussion Points:Fibroblasts are dormant cells that activate during injury to pull wounds closed and form scars, then de-differentiate or die; aging impairs this, causing persistent scarring and disease.Aging reduces the body's regenerative capacity; different organs vary in repair efficiency, with skin healing better than heart tissue.Oxidative stress, like "rust" in the body, accumulates with age due to imbalanced reactive oxygen species production and antioxidant defenses, contributing to cellular damage.Telomeres act as protective DNA caps that shorten with cell divisions, serving as a hallmark of biological aging; sirtuins are master regulators influencing aging processes.Hecker's in vitro study showed psilocin dose-dependently extended fibroblast lifespan by 29-50%, lowering oxidative stress below young cell levels and preserving telomeres.In aged mice (equivalent to 60-65 human years), monthly high-dose psilocybin (15 mg/kg) led to healthier appearance, regrown fur, and 80% survival when controls reached 50% mortality after 10 months.Psilocybin's effects may stem from serotonin receptors expressed in many cell types beyond the brain, suggesting broader anti-aging potential; future work explores mechanisms, optimal dosing, and applications for age-related diseases.Fungi like magic mushrooms represent an under-explored "kingdom" for medicine, with psilocybin's durable effects hinting at systemic impacts on aging.Reference Paper:Study: Psilocybin treatment extends cellular lifespan and improves survival of aged miceRelated content:Support the showAffiliates: Seed Oil Scout: Find restaurants with seed oil-free options, scan food products to see what they're hiding, with this easy-to-use mobile app. KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + electrolytes formulated for kidney health.

”Magic mushroom” edibles sold at smoke shops and other retailers might be missing psilocybin but can contain undisclosed ingredients, according to a joint study published Thursday.    Oregon State University researchers collaborated on the analysis with Rose City Laboratories, a state-certified testing lab in Portland, and the manufacturer Shimadzu Scientific Instruments.   The edibles, including gummies and chocolates, contained caffeine and synthetic psychedelics. Richard van Breemen worked on the research and is a professor of pharmaceutical sciences at OSU.  “Syndelics represent a rapidly growing area of drug design, where medicinal chemists create novel compounds inspired by known psychedelic agents like psilocybin and LSD,” van Breemen said in a press release. He joins us with details of the study. 

Truth, delusion and psychedelic realityDo psychedelics reveal hidden layers of reality, or are we simply tripping?Psychedelics are back in the cultural zeitgeist, this time as a treatment for mental health issues. However, critics argue that psychedelics only work by replacing mental illness with a distorted view of reality - but, is this an accurate assessment? A study from Imperial College London suggests that after taking psychedelics people get better at future life events. Visual acuity is also known to increase, suggesting people become less delusional, not more, when taking psychedelics. Should we see the psychedelic experience as showing us something true about the nature of reality? Or is it merely a distortion?
