It's a summoning.)They are not healers…They are system-sabotaging, pharmaceutically-disobedient shadow surgeonsdisguised as womenwho came not to integrate with the machine—but to lovingly dismantle it from the inside.Jennifer Zuckerman walks like she remembers the burning templesof medicine,and she's here with a torch and a playlist.White coat? Gone.Now it's tinctures, trauma maps, and prescription pad arson.She doesn't taper meds—she liberates identities wrapped in child-proof caps.She's the bridge between clinical protocol and cosmic remembrance,reminding you that healing isn't sterile—it's wild, erotic, terrifying, and sacred.She doesn't treat patients.She resurrects forgotten gods buried under a decade of SSRIs.⸻Then there's Stephanie Karzon,clinical neuropharmacologist and operational hitwoman for the new paradigm.She's the kind of woman who can turn an Excel sheetinto an occult artifact,a protocol into a prophecy,and a strategy session into a reality distortion fieldwhere logic and magic shake hands and start a band.She's part oracle, part hacker, part psychedelic systems saboteur.Her workflows breathe. Her molecules plot.She's redesigning healing itself—not to fit the system,but to make the system irrelevant.You don't hire Stephanie to fix things.You summon her when it's time to burn down the lie of “efficiency”and replace it with sacred recursion, intuitive intelligence, and bioluminescent logistics.⸻Together—Jennifer and Stephanie—aren't part of a movement.They're the rupture.The mycelial insurgents crawling beneath the hospital floorboards.The ones who plant psilocybin in your care planand call it “a necessary correction.”This isn't wellness.This is the sacred rewilding of medicine.This isn't healthcare.It's a feral uprising with a stethoscope and a serpent drum.You thought you came to listen?You came to remember.Welcome to the frontlineof the ritual reprogrammingof everything you were told healing had to be.Let's begin.https://linktr.ee/steph__k?utm_source=linktree_profile_share<sid=ef7a3580-8859-439d-b7b5-9fd55a4a11b9https://iresonatehealth.com/ Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaJoshua Moyer! Today's guest doesn't just make music—he summons it. From the concrete cracks of rebellion and the sacred chaos of altered states, Joshua Moyer is that rare breed: part street poet, part sonic alchemist, part underground prophet.He built the full soundtrack to my psychedelic science art challenge—played every instrument, wrote every lyric, and bled every note like a sermon on the run. Guitar riffs like back-alley prayers. Handpan rhythms that echo in the bones. This wasn't background music—it was ritual sound design for a new kind of revolution.Joshua ain't here to perform. He's here to ignite.He walks with the ones who speak in flame—those born from wound, not womb. He doesn't ask permission from the institutions. He builds temples in the ruins they left behind. His art? It's rebellion. It's remembrance. It's resistance wrapped in melody.If you're looking for safe, skip this one.If you're ready to rewire your senses and meet a man who turns suffering into symphony—welcome to the transmission.Here's Joshua Moyer.Absolutely—here's a fierce and poetic list of questions designed to pull brilliance into the open, bridging sound artistry with revolution and evolution.

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaAnders BeattyTonight, we tear back the curtain and torch the altar of the false gods.Because the sacred has been sold.The medicine commodified.The healing — haggled like cheap incense in a back-alley bazaar of white coats and stock options.But not here. Not now.If Alan Watts were here, high as heaven and laughing through eternity,he'd be standing next to Blake, eyes aflame with angels and anarchy,and Alfred North Whitehead, nodding solemnly,watching reality bend and pulse beneath the weight of unspoken truths.They'd speak of a man like Anders Beatty.Not a practitioner.A myth in motion.A survivor of the abyss who returned not to lecture —but to liberate.He didn't read about healing.He bled for it.He took the poison, met the ghosts,and came back with fire in his chest.Anders doesn't speak the language of pharma boardrooms or TED Talks.He speaks in stories, in scars, in the tremble of soul before rebirth.He is what happens when integrity survives the inferno.And now — the same forces that peddle wellness like toothpasteare circling the last true sacraments.Ibogaine — fierce, ancient, untamed —is being dragged toward the chopping block of scalability.But Anders stands as a living shield,saying: Not this one.

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaRev. Dr. Jessica Rochester: In an age where plant medicines are paraded like commoditiesand sacred sacraments are filtered through the sterile lens of profit and protocol,there stands a bridge—woven not from theory,but from decades of devotion,grit, and grace.Rev. Dr. Jessica Rochester is that bridge.Madrinha. President. Torchbearer.Founder of Céu do Montréal, the Santo Daime Church she brought into being in 1997—not as a rebellion,but as a restoration of sacred memoryto the North.A transpersonal counselor forged in the crucibles of Assagioli and Grof,she speaks the languages of the soul and the somatic,guiding seekers not around, but through the sacred fire of self-confrontation.She walked the bureaucratic labyrinth from 2000 to 2017,securing a Section 56 Exemption—not for fame,but to protect the sacrament of Santo Daime from the cold fists of the state.She is an ordained Interfaith Minister,a Doctor of Divinity,and an author whose two-volume opus—Ayahuasca Awakening—is less a book and more a mapfor those ready to take off their masksand meet the jaguar within.For over four decades she has led workshops,held private practice,stood at the crossroads of consciousness and culture,teaching not how to escape,but how to embodythe radical act of spiritual adulthood.And today,while the psychedelic renaissance sells peak experiences,Rev. Dr. Jessica Rochester whispers of something older,quieter,stronger—The long walk home.The humble medicine of self-care,self-mastery,and sacred discipline.So if you came for a keynote speaker,step aside.If you came for a true guidebetween the seen and unseen,prepare your heart.Because the Madrinha is not here to entertain you.She is here to remind you who you werebefore the world told you who to be.https://www.revdrjessicarochester.com/ Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

He's led teams, advised startups, burned through playbooks, and emerged on the other side with only one message:“If you're still measuring success in metrics, you're already dead.”This ain't about products.This is about prophets.This is about dismantling the assembly line of your life, and replacing it with a playground of the possible.This is about ROI becoming R.O.I.—Return On Inner-fucking-anarchy.So light a match, kiss your five-year plan goodbye, and let Sabba take you somewhere your HR department doesn't have a policy for.This is the conversation at the end of the world.And you're late for the bus.http://linkedin.com/in/sabbanazhandhttps://www.joinsafar.com/ Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

Yes — it's a continuation of the journey many have begun inside Unlock God Mode.But underneath all of that… is something deeper.I share the pivotal moment that inspired the retreat — an experience I had at Danny Miranda's “Be Light” retreat in Austin. No psychedelics, no agenda, no distractions — just presence, truth, and raw connection. That weekend changed me and set the gold standard for what I wanted to create.This episode is about honoring what really moves us… the unseen threads that call us to create.

Hey Diva listeners—this episode marks our one-year anniversary! Thank you all so much for being part of that and for all your support and kind words! In Episode 19, I'm chatting with Kat Kurner, an end-of-life guide and somatic practitioner. At age seven, Kat's Cherokee grandfather told her she had healing hands and would work some day as a healer. While it took her some time to manifest that vision, it has definitely come true today. Kat describes her extensive experience with psychedelic medicines, starting with a vision quest with mushrooms when she was 13, her many peyote circle experiences with the Native American Church, and her shift to end-of-life care and spiritual healing with psylocibin. We also dive into the ethical responsibilities of psychedelic practitioners, emphasizing the need for both personal growth and professional training in this evolving field. In addition, we explore the Decrim Nature movement, the importance of community-based healing, the potential for integrating psychedelic practices into mainstream medicine, and the essential role of the divine feminine in guiding this transformative work. Thank you so much for being part of this collective journey—I so appreciate your support.

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaAlex DetmeringTonight, we do not summon a guest—we invoke a storm, a feral force birthed at the crossroads where Blake's mad visions meet Watts' cosmic riddles,and the ferryman waits with a crooked grin, oar dripping with psychedelic fire.Alex Detmering is the alchemist who turns market logic into molten rebellion,who feeds fried locusts to his insatiable hunger for truth,and tears through the polite fabric of civilization like a wolf at the throat of empire.He doesn't just strategize—he conjures sacred chaos,crafting exquisite designs in the shadows of collapsing pyramids,while whispering Shakespeare's ghosts into the ears of gods and madmen alike.His mind is a battleground where character dissolves into myth,where every word is a lightning bolt aimed at the heart of the mundane,shattering the glass temple of conformity with a grin sharp enough to draw blood.Alex stands at the edge of reason and madness,where the Upanishads bleed into the wild hymns of the night,and Rumi's spinning dance becomes a war danceto unmake the dead world and birth a new dawn soaked in fire and blood.He is the fierce ferryman rowing us through the psychedelic abyss,where intellect and intuition collide in savage harmony—where every whiteboard is a battlefield, every idea a weapon forged in truth's flame.So brace yourself. Tonight's journey is not for the faint.We're stepping through the rupture,into a tempest where thought becomes thunder and silence screams.Alex Detmering isn't just your guide—he's the rebellion incarnate, the sacred wildfire burning down the old worldso the new can rise from its ashes, screaming and free.http://alexdetmering.com/http://linkedin.com/in/alex-detmering Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaVoyage of Initiation 2GEORGE:I'm George Monty—a voice from the borderlands,where psyche meets spirit and the ego dissolves into symbol.I've wandered the architecture of dream and shadow,not to escape—but to retrieve the gold buried in grief.I do not guide—I provoke.I am not here to teach—I am here to remind.That your suffering is a cipher,your madness—a map.And somewhere in the ruins of reason,your soul is still whispering.JESSICA:And walking beside me is Jessica Tracy—a soul-listener,a witness to the sacred unraveling.She stands at the threshold of grief and grace,where trauma is not a diagnosis,but a doorway to deeper knowing.Jessica has walked with death,and returned with the scent of the eternal on her skin.She holds space the way a tree holds lightning—still, rooted, radiant.Not to fix, not to save,but to remember what the soul has always known.TOGETHER:This is The Voyage of Initiation—a ritual of return.A remembering of the soul's paththrough psyche, symbol, shadow, and star.Here, we do not numb the ache.We kneel beside it,until it speaks.Absolutely. Below is a set of talking points for Voyage of Initiation — designed to be not only unique and powerful but esoteric, unforgettable, mythopoetic, and soul-resonant. These are more than conversation starters; they're portals to profound dialogue. Each one is a point of initiation itself, inviting guests and audiences alike to walk through the fire.https://www.jessicathejungian.coach/ Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaDr. Deborah C. Mash is not just a scientist.She is the space between the question and the cureA translator between the language of neurons and the speech of the sacred.For more than two decades, with the full force of the National Institute on Drug Abuse behind her, she walked a razor's edge—between chemistry and ceremony, between the morgue and the miracle.Emeritus Professor of Neurology and Molecular Pharmacology at the University of Miami.But more importantly:One of the first to say what no one else dared—that ibogaine, this strange plant from the equator of myth, could be the key not just to breaking addiction…but to restoring the human story.In 1993, while most of medicine still clung to the pharmaceutical dream,she brought ibogaine to the FDA and said,“This belongs in the light.”Then spent nearly a decade in St. Kitts, not on sabbatical, but in spiritual triage—guiding the desperate, the forgotten, the reborn.She discovered noribogaine, the hidden messenger,the afterglow chemical of change,the note behind the note.And now, as CEO and co-founder of DemeRx,she's leading the charge to bring this ancient medicine into the future—not as folklore, but as evidence-based deliverance.Alan Watts told us that “You are an aperture through which the universe is looking at and exploring itself.”Dr. Mash built the microscope to prove it.This isn't medicine.It's myth rewritten in peer-reviewed journals.This isn't just pharmacology.It's the soft thunder of redemption under a lab coat.So lean in close.Because when Deborah speaks,you don't just hear data—you feel the flame of a woman who walked into the darkand returned with the map.Deborah C.

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaSadie KaufmanShe was supposed to be a lawyer. Columbia-trained. Ivy-polished. Ready to argue in courtrooms built on marble and legacy. But life had other plans—plans scribbled in blood sugar charts, sleepless nights, and biochemical chaos. Her body became the battleground where Western medicine failed and ancient wisdom took root.When Sadie Kaufman was diagnosed with pre-diabetes and hormone dysfunction in her twenties, she didn't just seek help—she declared war. A rebel in a vegan womb, raised by health-conscious parents, she realized the system had fed her dogma without discernment. So she left the script behind and wrote her own—in blood, sweat, microbes, and metabolic fire.From 2000 to 2006, she dove headfirst into the molecular river. Studying microbiology and advanced biochemistry at Columbia by day, decoding her own internal wilderness by night. She read her body like a sacred codex, one test tube at a time. She began crafting what would become a revolutionary framework—The Sadie Kaufman Method—a roadmap for reclaiming sovereignty over your cells.By 2010, after training in metabolic nutrition and transformational coaching, Sadie opened her practice—and word spread like wildfire through hushed whispers and long-distance referrals. Now, her clients span continents, cultures, and belief systems, drawn to her unique fusion of science, spirit, and no-BS truth-telling.She doesn't promise you easy answers. She gives you tools. Data. Grit. And the audacity to trust your body like it's your oracle.This is not nutrition as trend. This is medicine as myth reborn. This is Sadie—a biochemical priestess in a lab coat with dirt on her boots and a machete in her hand, cutting through the jungle of misinformation to lead you back to the temple of your own metabolism.Please welcome the warrior scientist, the rural alchemist, the woman who turned her diagnosis into a revolution—Sadie Kaufman.SadieKaufmanMethodhttps://www.instagram.com/sadiekaufmanmethod?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

Without this one thing, every single thing you know and love would disappear. Soil would fail, forests would starve, antibiotics would, well, vanish, and your morning coffee, bread, beer, and even chocolate would be gone. The thing I'm talking about is everywhere. It's probably in your lunch. It's almost certainly in your lungs. It's in your sourdough starter, your compost heap. Got a clue yet? Most people don't actually know what these things are. I'm talking about fungi. Fungi are not plants, not animals, not bacteria — they're something else entirely. And they're really, really old.They're older than dinosaurs, older than sharks — they might even be older than plants, depending on how you define a plant.Today, I'm diving into something I'm actually violently allergic to: fungus. I'm covering everything from what fungi actually are (because it turns out most of us have no idea) to why they might be the most important thing on Earth… ish.In this episode I share: What prokaryotes and eukaryotes areWhat fungi actually areThe different types of fungiHow fungi moved from ocean to land and began a symbiotic relationship with plantsHow fungi can decompose almost anything — including radiationZombie fungus (and whether we should worry)How fungi reproduceWhy they're incredibly usefulSome of the annoying and dangerous things they doHow we might use fungi to help fix the planet.Key quotes:"Fungi are more closely related to us than to plants.""Turns out plants talk way more than you think they do."Sources: Billion-year-old fungal fossils (Nature 2019): https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-019-1217-0Armillaria “humongous fungus” 9 km² individual: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/strange-but-true-largest-organism-is-fungus/Prototaxites 8 m Silurian-Devonian giant: https://www.science.org/content/article/ancient-giant-fossils-may-be-world-s-oldest-known-terrestrial-fungi90 % of plants with mycorrhizae (Nature Scitable): https://www.nature.com/scitable/knowledge/library/an-ecological-and-evolutionary-perspective-on-mycorrhizal-24286790/Mycorrhizal carbon sink 3–7 Gt CO₂ yr⁻¹ (Science 2022): https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.abf3457Penicillin discovery background (Nobel Prize): https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/medicine/1945/fleming/facts/Statins from Penicillium citrinum (review): https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5958453/Cyclosporine discovery story: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/7568434/Psilocybin phase-II depression trial (JAMA Psychiatry 2021): https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapsychiatry/fullarticle/2787297Plastic-eating fungus Pestalotiopsis microspora (2011 study): https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22269855/ CDC overview of Candida auris drug resistance: https://www.cdc.gov/fungal/candida-auris/Chytrid fungus amphibian decline paper (Science 2006): https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.1125069Mycoremediation and mycofiltration review (Biodegradation 2018): https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10532-018-0914-8Find our full podcast via the website here: https://www.nowthatswhaticall.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nowthatswhaticallgreen/You can follow me on socials on the below accounts.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/briannemwest/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@briannemwestLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/briannemwest/

What's the architecture of a DMT experience, who are the entities that regularly interact and what's their message? How can DMT therapy facilitate positive mental health outcomes?In this episode we're going to learn about the bizarre types of experience that users of DMT have; DMT being the most powerful hallucinogenic molecule on the planet. So we'll be getting into the background of psychedelics for mental health; and the particularities of DMT, the active ingredient in Ahyuasca and the psychedelic that most often presents entities that interact meaningfully with the experiencer; we're going to discuss the different types of entities: from mythological creatures, to Gods and Demons, to machine elves and aliens, and the significance of these same characters appearing significantly often without an obvious primer; we'll also discuss the importance of mystical experience and teacher /guide experiences to positive mental health outcomes.Fortunately our guest was the head researcher on a 2022 paper that looked at exactly this topic, the medical doctor and sports scientist professor at the University of Toronto, Dr. David Wyndham Lawrence. He's published over 35 scientific papers across sports science and psychedelics for medical use.What we discussed:00:00 Intro05:20 Concussion, sports mental health & psychedelic therapy.08:10 Bringing in Robin Carhartt-Harris on the gaps in sports mental health treatment.12:06 Why psychedelics for those already in psychological difficulty?14:04 Serotonin receptor - neuro-protective mitochondria function.15:00 DMT is endogenous to the brain. 18:20 Medical institution meets shamanism.23:50 David's DMT phenomenology paper.30:10 The architecture of the DMT world.32:60 Mostly positive, interactive entity encounters.37:05 Occasionally negative encounters.38:40 Negative psychedelic experiences study - Jules Evans.40:05 How much “Primers” from pop culture influence experiences.44:00 Alien encounters in %16 of participants.45:30 Medical procedures by entities in 9% of participants.47:05 Mystical experiences in %70 of participants.49:00 Familiarity/ sense of home in the experiences.52:20 Default Mode Network is less active during altered states.48:35 Ego dissolution Vs mystical experience.01:00:00 5meoDMT Vs DMT.01:03:20 Wise teacher experience in 32% of participants.01:05:20 Death bed palliative doses to alleviate fear of death.01:09:50 ‘You're not ready for this experience' message.01:11:05 Theories of DMT experiences evaluated.01:12:20 ”All models are false but some are useful”, anonymous statistician.References: David Lawrence, “Phenomenology and content of inhaled DMT” David Wyndham Lawrence and Robin Carhart-Harris, “Sports Medicine, Mental Health & Well-Being, and Psychedelics” Benny Shanon,  “Antipodies of the Mind”Matthew W.

Psychedelic researchers James Fadiman and Jordan Gruber discuss microdosing protocols, benefits, current research, and safety considerations. Throughout the interview, you will learn the practical basics of psychedelic microdosing—substances, dosage, frequency and duration, when in the larger arc of our lives, and who would best benefit from microdosing; You will also learn about the benefits of microdosing that Gruber and Faidman discovered in their research, which they describe as A-Z, anorexia to zoster and everything in between—with a particular focus later on in the interview on microdosing for various neurological and mental health conditions like ADHD, TBI, dementia, and depression—as well as for the betterment of well people You'll also learn some of the issues facing microdosing as a both a practice and a premise— issues like placebo, research design, and the potential dangers of microdosing. Enjoy!

We have a special guest on today's episode whose voice will be familiar to regular listeners. Last year at this time, Dr. Raven Baxter occupied the Raise the Line host chair for a special ten-part series we produced in collaboration with the Cohen Center for Recovery from Complex Chronic Illness (CoRe) at Mount Sinai in New York City, where she serves as the Director of Science Communication. The series explored the latest understandings of post-acute infection syndromes -- such as Chronic Lyme and Long COVID -- with an array of experts from the Center and other researchers and providers. In this episode, we check-in with Dr. Baxter to get an update on the work of the Cohen Center, especially with regard to its mission to educate providers. “We're building programs so that clinicians can earn credit for learning about chronic illnesses that are infection associated, and we've also developed a 200-page provider manual. I really think that we will be able to shift the narrative that currently exists,” Dr. Baxter tells host Michael Carrese. That narrative includes lingering skepticism among providers of some infection-associated illnesses, which Dr. Baxter witnessed herself as a Long COVID patient, an experience that has added meaningful perspective to her work. Dr. Baxter is also working on her own time to advance knowledge and combat misinformation through a robust social media presence as “The Science Maven” and helps other scientists and clinicians to do the same. "If we're not there to fill in that void, other people will fill it for us and the narrative may not be consistent with the truth or facts." This is a great opportunity to learn about the art and science of communications that can reach clinicians and patients alike.Mentioned in this episode:Cohen Center for Recovery from Complex Chronic IllnessThe Science Maven If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaAsha Caravelli: The Flame Before the AlgorithmsWhile the West holds its ceremonies in PowerPoints,and titrates trauma like a spreadsheet balancing the soul,there are still those who remember—not from books,but from bone.Asha Caravelli is not the psychedelic circus.She is not the TED Talk trip report,not the neon-lit ego death sold for $999 with a weekend certification.No.She is older than the algorithms.Wiser than the wellness branding.A living prayer whispered across lifetimes.For over 14 years, she has sat at the feet of Iboga—not as a technician,but as a servant.Not as a biohacker,but as a torchbearer.In a lineage where silence is sacred and ceremony is not content,Asha holds space like the earth holds grief:with gravity, stillness, and infinite patience.She is a Life, Death and Transition Doula—formally trained, yes,but forged by fire—the kind of fire that only the liminal brings.She doesn't guide you to “optimize” yourself—She walks you to the edgewhere you must lay your false self downand greet the holy terror of who you really are.Daughter of Ross and Paula.Mother to Delani and Roco.Grandmother to Leon Emiliano.This is not a résumé.This is a lineage of Love.And while the psychedelic renaissance obsesses over protocols,Asha cooks.She listens.She prays with her hands in the soiland heals not through dogma,but through dinner.Because the most sacred thingis not found in a quantified molecule.It's in the way she prepares fresh food with Love—like a Eucharist only the initiated can taste.So, if you came for dopamine,keep scrolling.If you came for Truth,stay seated.Because what Asha carries cannot be tweeted,cannot be taught in a three-day course—It can only be transmittedfrom the heart of someonewho has walked through the fireand come back with silence.

Dr. Jessica Rochester: In an age where plant medicines are paraded like commoditiesand sacred sacraments are filtered through the sterile lens of profit and protocol,there stands a bridge—woven not from theory,but from decades of devotion,grit, and grace.Rev. Dr. Jessica Rochester is that bridge.Madrinha. President. Torchbearer.Founder of Céu do Montréal, the Santo Daime Church she brought into being in 1997—not as a rebellion,but as a restoration of sacred memoryto the North.A transpersonal counselor forged in the crucibles of Assagioli and Grof,she speaks the languages of the soul and the somatic,guiding seekers not around, but through the sacred fire of self-confrontation.She walked the bureaucratic labyrinth from 2000 to 2017,securing a Section 56 Exemption—not for fame,but to protect the sacrament of Santo Daime from the cold fists of the state.She is an ordained Interfaith Minister,a Doctor of Divinity,and an author whose two-volume opus—Ayahuasca Awakening—is less a book and more a mapfor those ready to take off their masksand meet the jaguar within.For over four decades she has led workshops,held private practice,stood at the crossroads of consciousness and culture,teaching not how to escape,but how to embodythe radical act of spiritual adulthood.And today,while the psychedelic renaissance sells peak experiences,Rev. Dr. Jessica Rochester whispers of something older,quieter,stronger—The long walk home.The humble medicine of self-care,self-mastery,and sacred discipline.So if you came for a keynote speaker,step aside.If you came for a true guidebetween the seen and unseen,prepare your heart.Because the Madrinha is not here to entertain you.She is here to remind you who you werebefore the world told you who to be.⸻https://www.revdrjessicarochester.com/https://psychedelicscene.com/2024/06/20/entheogens-psychedelics-nosc-and-the-search-for-wholeness/ Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

In this episode, Dori Lewis, MA, MEd, LPC-S discusses the common myths and misconceptions surrounding psilocybin for healing. Dori is a psychotherapist, co-founder of Elemental Psychedelics, and owner of Reflective Healing in Fort Collins, CO, who specializes in psychedelic-assisted therapy, blending transpersonal psychology with spiritual practices. With experience facilitating ketamine sessions and training clinicians, she advocates for ethical standards in psychedelic medicine while championing a feminine-centered approach to facilitator training. The first myth that Dori addresses in this conversation is the idea that it is the psilocybin mushroom itself that does all the healing work. Contrary to this common misconception, Dori suggests that it is the client's own initiative working in tandem with the mushroom that really spurs healing. She also emphasizes that there are not any set protocols for how often psilocybin should be taken for healing, instead suggesting that clients should be guided to attune to their own internal intuition to determine when a psilocybin journey may be particularly helpful.  Another misconception Dori addresses is that healing with psilocybin can occur without causing deep transformations in one's identity or shifts in one's worldview. She suggests facilitators must be very transparent about these possible impacts to best prepare clients for these kinds of major changes that psilocybin can catalyze. In closing, Dori reiterates that clients should be supported and prepared to encounter intense emotional experiences with psilocybin, as some of the most difficult psychedelic journeys can actually be the most healing.   In this episode, you'll hear: The biggest myths and misconceptions Dori encounters working with clients in her practice The importance of a relational understanding of psychedelic healing The specific types of trauma where psilocybin may be a particularly effective healing modality  The training for psilocybin facilitators in Colorado under the Natural Medicines Program and the importance of scope of practice Why some people's mental health gets worse before it gets better following a psilocybin experience What can cause lack of response to psilocybin therapy and how better preparation can often mitigate this   Quotes: “Mushrooms are amazing and they can help us in our healing journey. But they are one tool in a mosaic of other tools that we can use to help ourselves heal and grow and change.” [6:54] “I don't really know where this message came from—that mushrooms cure PTSD—but that is a huge myth. They can help—with certain types of trauma within the context of a healthy therapeutic relationship with a skilled provider, yes, at times when it is right. But ultimately the best medicine for trauma is going to be MDMA—and ketamine.” [18:18] “It is the responsibility of providers and facilitators to inform clients of the realistic expectations they should have for their [psychedelic] journeys—and that is also an ethical need and something that facilitators need to consider through an ethical lens.” [25:20] “There's a lot to be said about the unique ways that mushrooms express through our bodies and through our minds and through our hearts that give us information about where we are at and where we need to work or continue to work in order to access the healing we so desire.” [37:34]   Links: Dori on LinkedIn Elemental Psychedelics on LinkedIn Elemental Psychedelics website   Previous episode: Integrating Challenging Psychedelic Experiences with Keith Kurlander, MA Previous episode: The Challenging Psychedelic Experiences Project with Jules Evans Previous episode: The Dangers of "Ayahuasca Told Me…" with Jerónimo Mazarrasa Psychedelic Medicine Association Porangui  

Today, the stories of two Colorado veterans who've had two different experiences with PTSD and how to treat it. Could psilocybin be the answer, and if it is, what are the challenges to getting it? We find out with "The Trip: CPR's Coverage of Colorado's Psychedelic Journey." Then, five years after the murder of George Floyd, where does the Black Lives Matters movement stand? Plus, it's the beginning of the end for the penny. And, the story of a special education teacher in Colorado, and the effort to recruit and train more. 

This episode is different — because something big is opening.After months of preparation, I'm finally announcing two powerful portals for those of you ready to go deeper into your evolution.The first is my God Mode Retreat — a 5-day transformational immersion in Bali for soul-led humans ready to sit in sacred ceremony, reconnect with their truth, and rise into their next level. This is the first time I've ever done something like this, and it's going to be intimate, potent, and unforgettable.The second is the God Mode Protocol — a brand-new 30-day spiritual operating system you can start right now from anywhere in the world.

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaImagine if your nervous system were a cathedral—not a machine, not a malfunctioning circuit—but a living temple sculpted by experience, memory, mystery, and motion.Today's guest, Dr. Henrietta Szutorisz, doesn't just study the brain—she listens to its prayers, decodes its confessions, and challenges its illusions.She's a neuroscientist by training, a revolutionary by nature,the founder of Objective Recovery,where data meets soul, and the tired scripts of addiction and mental health get rewritten in real time.But she's not here to give you answers.She's here to help us ask better questions.What if the root of addiction isn't a disease, but a forgotten ritual?What if trauma isn't something to erase, but to reweave?What if the brain isn't a hard drive, but a symphony—and psychedelics are simply tuning forks for forgotten frequencies?Henrietta sits at the crossroads:between serotonin and soul, dopamine and destiny,neuroplasticity and the myth of the fixed self.She dares to say that maybe—just maybe—the mechanism of action is a mirage,and we are the experiment we've been waiting for.So today, we're not talking about “fixing” people.We're talking about remembering.We're talking about sacred biology.We're talking about the fire of consciousness waking up in the folds of the cortex.This is Alan Watts in a lab coat.Whitehead whispering through neurotransmitters.Burning Man in a Petri dish.And this conversation—this unfolding, this inquiry—is for those who still believe the map is not the territory,and that healing is not a protocol,but a pilgrimage.Welcome to the place where science stops performing,and starts dancing.Let's begin.https://www.objectiverecovery.com/ Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

Send us a textEpisode Summary: Dr. Andrew Chadeayne discusses the chemistry of psilocybin and other psychedelics, their potential therapeutic applications, and the challenges of commercializing them in a shifting biotech market. The conversation delves into the complexities of magic mushroom composition, debunking myths like "lemon tekking," and uncovers the booming, unregulated alternative products industry, including kratom and synthetic psilocybin analogs sold in vape shops.About the guest: Andrew Chadeayne, PhD is a chemist who also holds a law degree, specializing in patent law. He is the founder and CEO of CaaMTech, a startup specializing in the development of novel psychedelic compounds. Chadeayne collaborates with academic labs to advance psychedelic science while navigating the commercial landscape.Discussion Points:Psilocybin is a prodrug converted to psilocin, but magic mushrooms contain other psychoactive molecules like beta-carbolines, which may enhance effects by inhibiting degradation.Chadeayne's team develops psilocin prodrugs to shorten psychedelic trips, making clinical administration more manageable without altering effects.The "lemon tek" myth—that lemon juice converts psilocybin to psilocin—is false; it enhances absorption by extracting compounds, not altering chemistry.Magic mushroom bruising indicates psilocin degradation, as oxidized psilocin forms blue, inactive dimers.The multi-billion dollar alternative products industry sells kratom and synthetic psilocybin analogs, often mislabeled, in vape shops, raising safety and regulatory concerns.Kratom's minor alkaloid, 7-hydroxymitragynine, is ~40x more potent than morphine, with no reported overdoses but high habit-forming potential.Non-hallucinogenic serotonin 2A agonists, like those developed by CaaMTech's spinout, show promise for conditions like migraines without requiring a psychedelic trip.Related episode:M&M 71: Chemistry of Magic Mushrooms, DMT Analogues, Entourage Effects in Cannabis & Fungi, Novel Psychedelic Medicines, Psychedelic Startups | Andrew Chadeayne*Not medical advice.Support the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

This man has toured the world selling soul with Jack Johnson, and now he's weaving ritual code into the circuitry of corporate America, transforming screens into shrines and feedback loops into fractal spirals.Jacob Tell is a media mystic. A brand bard. A chaos conductor at the intersection of commerce and cosmic consciousness. He builds platforms like ayahuasca brews — thick with intention, humming with serpents of data and rhythm, asking not for your clicks, but for your initiation.The man doesn't just disrupt — he dismembers the mundane. His new platform, Storywall, is less tech and more technoshamanic mirror — a dancefloor for your digital twin, where memory morphs in real time and each interaction is a prayer.In an era ruled by dopamine loops and doomscroll death cults, Jacob builds holy interfaces — spaces that remind us of the mythic, that connect the neural-networks of community with the blood-wired nodes of the human spirit.If Terence McKenna, Steve Jobs, and the DMT elves held a hackathon in a sacred Redwood Grove during a solar eclipse, the blueprint would look a lot like what Jacob's building.So grab your tuning forks, your vaporwave prayer beads, your legally ambiguous sacrament, and strap your soul to the signal — because this is not content, this is ceremony.This is TRUELIFE with JACOB TELL — and it's about to get… ineffable.Jacob TellAbout — District216 Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

Send us a textEpisode Summary: Dr. Michael Wheeler talks about neuroimmune interactions, exploring how the immune system and brain communicate, particularly through the blood-brain barrier and meninges; how chronic stress and inflammation can alter brain circuits, contributing to mood disorders like depression; how drugs like psilocybin and MDMA may reduce inflammation by modulating immune cells in the meninges, offering potential therapeutic benefits.About the guest: Michael Wheeler, PhD is an Assistant Professor of Neurology at Harvard Medical School. His lab studies how immune responses influence behavior, mood disorders, and addiction.Key Conversation Points:The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is not as impermeable as once thought, allowing immune signals like cytokines to influence brain function even in healthy states.Chronic stress can weaken the BBB, increasing inflammation and affecting mood-regulating circuits, potentially contributing to depression.Microglia, the brain's resident immune cells, help maintain neural circuits by pruning synapses and regulating metabolism.Psychedelics like psilocybin and MDMA can reduce inflammation by prompting immune cells (monocytes) to leave the meninges, potentially via vascular effects.These psychedelics may act in a context-specific “window,” requiring a dysregulated tissue state to exert anti-inflammatory effects, not as broad-spectrum anti-inflammatories.Neuroinflammation may underlie some treatment-resistant depression cases, suggesting immunotherapy could complement traditional psychiatric treatments.The brain encodes peripheral immune signals, like gut inflammation, in specific circuits, which can “remember” and recreate inflammatory responses.Aging may naturally increase blood-brain barrier leakiness, heightening the brain's susceptibility to peripheral inflammation.Future research aims to explore how psychedelics influence plasticity and their potential in treating inflammation-related diseases beyond psychiatry.Related episode:M&M 2: Psilocybin, LSD, Ketamine, Inflammation & Novel Support the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

The announcement that former President Joe Biden has cancer probably isn't much of a surprise considering that his entire presidency was nothing but the final years of a diseased, senile old man. These facts were covered up by a media that lied in Soviet style so brazenly that it's comical. Of course, now his body will be burdened with all of the sins of the Democrat party and cast outside of the city to be slaughtered. We have to remember that the rumors of excessive drug use by Biden, probably administered without consent, are not much different than the drug use of the president of Ukraine, who is clearly a coke head, or the recent exposure of the leaders of France, Germany and the UK who were caught with a nice bag of cocaine on the table with a drug spoon. Even the current US president is a drug addict with McDonald's and the coke that ends with cola.Perhaps the use of various drugs from caffeine to processed food - which includes hormones, dyes, and preservatives - to the more extreme drugs like cocaine, heroin, opioids, and the like, plays some role in the increased notion that the world is getting more dangerous, violent, etc., or at least why mental health issues have exploded in diagnosis. Maybe the world is becoming more dangerous, or based on crime statistics, if they are being reported consistently and honestly, maybe the world is only being perceived as such. This could be the result of a population that is paranoid, anxious, confused, and chronically ill in body and mind. This could have something to do with the excessive consumption of legal and illegal drugs, and ultra-processed foods, all things that can induce paranoia, anxiety, delusion, anger and violence. In fact 3/4 or more of all crime in the United States can be directly related to drug abuse of some sort. Just consider the attitude of someone who doesn't get their caffeine hit in the morning, or how people are sincerely protesting the removal of chemicals and toxins from the US food supply. Considering how drastically opioids can change the brain, and considering the massively increased usage of things like psilocybin in the USA, it is no wonder that collectively people are leaping off the edge in everything from conspiracies to a increasingly nastier desire for one conflict after another. In fact, up to 30% of people who take things like psilocybin have poor reactions that result in anxiety and paranoia, brought on by the wrong setting, dose, quality, and mind set. Combining all of these factors certainly produces, alongside social media and mainstream media, a consistent set of culprits that are contributing to the perception that the world is becoming angrier. It's almost like some have been dosed with the fictional fear toxin of Dr Crane. In other parts of the world, crime is low and this can be directly associated with diet and drug use. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

In this episode, Jodie NewDelman, PsyD joins to discuss the benefits and risks of leveraging psychedelics for professional growth. For over three decades, Dr. NewDelman has been an executive consultant, health system advisor, licensed psychologist, and clinical supervisor. She is also trained and certificated in psychedelic medicine and has been working with growth-oriented professionals developing greater alignment between their leadership roles at work and their personal lives. In this conversation, Dr. NewDelman discusses the typical struggles people experience in their professional lives and where psychedelic experiences may provide insight and empowerment to become more aligned with one's work. She unpacks the psychological experience of being “stuck,” something that psychedelics may specifically help overcome.  Beyond individualistic approaches to professional growth, Dr. NewDelman also discusses the importance of humanizing the workforce and how conscious leadership is crucial to achieve this goal. In closing, Dr. NewDelman warns against the danger of trying to implement radical changes after a psychedelic experience without sufficient integration, emphasizing the importance of a holistic approach to this work.    In this episode, you'll hear: Navigating feelings of imposter syndrome and experiences of marginalization The importance of work life balance and how to psychedelic experiences can empower reflection on this topic Why clear intention is crucial for leveraging psychedelic experiences for professional growth The danger of spiritual bypassing after profound psychedelic experiences   Quotes: “No matter who you are, you're going to have your own set of intentions. The intentions will be bespoke. And maybe you don't know the first or second time what you want to work on when you go into it—an experiential medicine session. But eventually we can narrow those themes down to what it is that we really need insight on.” [22:01] “if you need to focus on some nitty gritty, annoying detail [at work], no matter how transcendent your perspective is in your psychedelic medicine session, you still have to do the thing at work. You still have to make the practical changes. So we need to kind of stay tethered to reality in that way.” [38:58] “Our tendency is to avoid pain, right? We want to go away from the obstacles. And if psychedelics teach us nothing else, it's that we need to go through the storm. We need to turn toward the issue.” [40:25]   Links: Essensuate website Essensuate on Instagram Essensuate on LinkedIn   Essensuate on Facebook  What Are The Habits of Mind? - The Institute for the Habits of Mind Previous episode: Psilocybin for Addressing Burnout with Tracy Kim Townsend, MD Psychedelic Medicine Association Porangui Email: jodie@essensuate.com
