The primary narrative paving the pathway for the emergence and acceptance of psychedelic compounds into Western society is the narrative surrounding Psychedelic Therapy; psychedelics as a clinical treatment for mental illness. But what are the implications of viewing psychedelics through this lens? Laura Dawn speaks with Alexander Beiner about The Bigger Picture and not only the impact that lens has on our personal experience but on the culture at large. Alexander Beiner is a journalist and author of the book: 'The Bigger Picture: How psychedelics can help us make sense of the world'. In this episode of the Psychedelic Leadership Podcast we explore: The hidden and far-reaching implications of mainstreaming psychedelics through a “medicalized” and clinical lens within a capitalistic model. Why “Psychedelic Therapy” is the dominant narrative and why we need to widen our frame. What is "The Psychedelic Trojan Horse"? And why is flawed? Power dynamics surrounding who makes decisions around psychedelics. Why the names and labels we use to describe psychedelic compounds matter. Why psychotomimetic might still be an appropriate word given our pathological cultural frameworkHow do we avoid the mainstreaming of psychedelics becoming an elitist movement, the importance of access, and “the virtuals vs the physicals”.

The World Economic Forum named creativity the most important skill set for leaders of our time. In this episode, weaving science with ceremony, Laura Dawn explores the broader question: Can psychedelics enhance our creative process? There are many different definitions of creativity. In the broadest sense, we could say that creativity is the process of translating our ideas and inner visions into tangible reality. Do you pay attention to how that process unfolds in your professional life? Could you articulate it? How do you come up with compelling ideas that have the potential to inspire change and then transmute them into reality? How do you evaluate them? How do you implement them? In this episode of the Psychedelic Leadership Podcast, we explore:5-phase framework for the creative processThe different modes of cognition or mental states that underlie the various phases. Creative cognition is not a single state of mind; it is multiple states of mind. How psychedelics might help enhance specific phases of the process, and how we might want to integrate them (safely and responsibly) into the larger arc of bringing our ideas to life. How different phases of the creative process benefit from leveraging different kinds of creative thinking skills. Suggestions for how to apply this in your life.

Claudia Cuentas is a Peruvian marriage and family therapist, specializing in the treatment of healing trauma, trauma recovery, cultural identity, and decolonization of healing.  In this episode, we explore the concepts of right relationship, sacred reciprocity and AYNI, a Quechua word that points to an embodied understanding of our symbiotic relationship with all of life, and how to meet life with balance, harmony, and equilibrium of exchange and mutuality.  Right relationship, AYNI, and sacred reciprocity are powerful concepts that can be applied to all forms of leadership.  In this episode with Claudia, we explore a range of topics, including:  The importance of slowing down enough so we can return to our senses How sacred plant medicines train our senses to tune into another dimension of reality we can't perceive with our eyes, in order to perceive the multiverse.  The importance of listening as a daily practice. Nervous system regulation.  How sacred plant medicines help to clear our channels The power of forgiveness as a practice  Curiosity as a mindset The power of song as a modality of transmutation.  How plant medicines inform and influence the way we show up to lead.  Understanding what decolonizing the mind means, and exploring this topic through the lens of creativity.  https://lauradawn.co/your-message-is-your-medicine (>>>APPLY FOR THE NEXT PSYCHEDELIC LEADERSHIP MASTERMIND FOR MEDICINE WOMEN ENTREPRENEURS

Weaving Astrology & Medicine Work: Can the position and the movement of planets that are so far away play a significant role in the patterns that emerge and manifest in our lives? Patterns related to relationships, or what's unfolding in our careers, or patterns related to home and where we live?  So many of us come to ceremony and show up at the altar to pray for healing and to lean into what we want to manifest in our lives. And if astrology points to destiny and karma, where does free will and the power of prayer and intention enter the equation? Can intention change our destiny?  And can it be beneficial to understand your astrological chart and weave that awareness into personal work you do with psychedelics and sacred plant medicines?  These are the questions that Laura Dawn explores with Vedic astrologer and medicine musician Tara Divina.  Tara covers the 12 houses of vedic astrology and shares really interesting insights into what is unfolding astrologically right now, influencing patterns that are up for most of us, and what we might want to consider paying particular attention to.  In this episode we talk about destiny versus prayer, the difference between Vedic astrology and Western astrology, grief as an essential part of the creative process, the important of letting go, creativity, and how the medicine supports us her on the path as a visionary entrepreneur. https://www.lauradawn.co/58 (Click here to access this episode's page complete with a full transcript, more about Tara Divina, and a complete list of resources)https://www.lauradawn.co/57 (.)

Imagine a world where generosity and giving to others is more valued than accumulating wealth and profit. Imagine a world where all life, and all of nature's elements, including the water we drink and the air we breathe is equally valued. This is not only a deeply held prayer and a vision for the future, it is how indigenous cultures have lived in balance with the earth since the dawn of time, guided by Original Principles.  According to Indigenous Otemi-Toltec Elder, Mindahi Bastisa, A world guided by Original Principles is not just possible – it is inevitable.  In this episode, I invited Grandmother Jyoti and Mindahi Bastisa to share their wisdom and teachings surrounding the Original Principles they speak of.

In November 2021, I attended the Meet Delic conference in Las Vegas where my guest Laura Dawn was a keynote speaker. Meet Delic is a conference for psychedelic wellness and entrepreneurship.  Laura Dawn is the host of the Psychedelic Leadership Podcast and is on the forefront of the movement between psychedelics, visionary leadership and creativity. While attending the Meet Delic Conference, I witnessed first-hand how inspiring and engaging Laura is as a speaker as she challenged the audience to see parallels in the psychedelic experience and finding our own creative channels.  Laura Dawn is an advocate, author and international speaker who has been leading transformational retreats for over a decade and is passionate about reframing the narrative about what it means to be creative.  In this episode, Laura and I discuss many intriguing topics surrounding psychedelic leadership, creativity, plant medicine integration, and some key clarifications around benefit sharing versus the concept of reciprocity. It was a real pleasure in today's remote recording world to get an opportunity to actually sit down in person in the studio with Laura. I was grateful to hold a genuine space for creative thinking and receive one another's energy during our engaging conversation. If you are interested in watching this podcast, you view this episode on my Neurons to Nirvana podcast channel on YouTube.  Laura is helping to re-define and explore entrepreneurship as well as expand our thoughts on psychedelics through a new lens.

From being kidnapped in Mexico for his human rights work, to advising the largest organizations across the world and allying with the Union of Indigenous Yagé Medics of the Colombian Amazon and advocating for indigenous movements, Ricardo Vitale has had an extraordinary path. As a self-defined 'liberation anthropologist', based in Colombia. He earned a PhD from Cambridge University with a thesis about the Zapatista movement in Chiapas, Mexico.  His expertise covers human rights, anthropology in armed conflict, social movements, indigenous politics, gender relations within social movements, sustainable development, resilience, climate change adaptations and indigenous practices of yagé medicine, spirituality, and resistance. He is a former adviser of a plethora of international humanitarian and development bodies such as: Oxfam America, the UNHCR, the Norwegian Refugee Council, ICG and GIZ, amongst others. Since 2016 Riccardo works as a full-time adviser for the Union of Indigenous Yagé Medics of the Colombian Amazon (UMIYAC).  His tasks within UMIYAC range from fundraising to advocacy, to capacity strengthening, and non-extractive (“the-other-way-around”) anthropological research, aimed at “reinforcing indigenous communities, rather than taking from them”. In this episode, we expand the conversation around plant medicine conservation and include the context of the symbiotic relationship between people, sacred territories, land, community, culture, and that there are people that are facing extinction who also hold knowledge. And when those cultures go extinct. Loss of knowledge is embedded in that. Part of supporting plant medicine conservation is supporting biocultural diversity. Not because we want to ensure that we can replant what we need to consume to ensure our future needs are met. But because we actually want to live in a world where indigenous peoples can be living on the land that is their birthright.

As the world comes to embrace the healing potential of sacred medicines, how do we ensure the original stewards of these medicines are uplifted, honored, and supported in this search for our collective healing? If we envision a future where indigenous peoples, their medicines, & traditional knowledge are honored, respected, and supported to thrive for generations to come then what specific actions can we take to do no harm, to truly be in right-relationship with these cultures?  On today's episode I speak with Miriam Volat and Cody Swift of The Riverstyx Foundation and the Indigenous Medicine Conservation Fund about it's origin story, the Native American and other indigenous communities around the world it supports, plant medicine conservation & how to begin to be in right relationship with indigenous cultures. This is an extremely complex topic, and these two emphasize that they are still LEARNING, and LISTENING, and part of what you'll hear and learn on this episode, is about the serious biocultural crisis happening across the planet for these traditional knowledge holding communities as they lose access to land, plant medicine, and even their own language. We answer questions like, what does “right relationship” mean? What does “do-no-harm” mean? What is a bioculture? What does “solidarity-based support” mean? We get into the details of how are funds utilized and organized, how are assessments conducted in these indigenous communities and how are their voices being amplified?  In this episode we all expand our perception and outlook on what it means to support indigenous communities and the sacred medicines of the planet, and to remind us that we are all one family sharing the sacred responsibility and commitment to thrive on Earth together. https://lauradawn.co/free-music-playlists/ (4 Free Playlists For Psychedelic Journeys & Beyond) https://lauradawn.co/free-microdosing-course/ (Free 8 Day Microdosing Course) https://instagram.com/livefreelaurad (Follow @LiveFreeLauraD on Instagram) Resources Mentioned https://www.ipc.fund (https://www.IPC.fund) https://growmedicine.com/ (https://growmedicine.com/) https://www.narf.org/?gclid=Cj0KCQjwyYKUBhDJARIsAMj9lkGoG9xOvWAzWJEia6J1OQ4OfHrNd7LyM-HZ02bilNwPvr8Q2gItbhoaAh3VEALw_wcB (Native American Rights Fund - NARF ) https://www.lauradawn.co/44 (Click here to access this episode's page complete with a full transcript, more about the author, and complete list of resources.)

Creativity and specifically creative thinking is being called the most important skillset to cultivate for leaders of our time.  When I first started coming across statements like this, I started asking myself, what exactly is creative thinking, how do we define it and how do we learn to cultivate it? And does research show that psychedelics can help us to think more creatively? It turns out that there's very little research that has been done exploring psychedelics and creativity.  There have been a couple of published papers that have influenced my thinking around this topic, including Natasha Mason, Ph.D., who's my guest on the show today, and the paper is titled Spontaneous and deliberate creative cognition during and after psilocybin exposure - which is one of the first double-blind, placebo-controlled studies directly exploring psychedelic and creative cognition.  Natasha Mason Ph.D., is a post-doc at Maastricht University, Dept of Psychopharmacology. She has a background in (neuro)psychology and pharmacy. Utilizing multimodal study designs, her current research assesses drug-induced neuroadaptations and their influence on affect, behavior, and cognition. As you listen to our conversation I just want to encourage you to remember that you are creative by definition of being alive. And that being creative is your birthright. And a lot of people still have old beliefs, these are old myths about creativity, and right now we are being called to think bigger - because as Einstein said we can't solve our problems at the same level of thinking that created them.

How do we as leaders cultivate a deeply caring, resilient, just/equitable, and loving community? Perhaps the answer lies in “sacred activism”. I brought on sacred activist, Hanifa Nayo Washington who has been working at the forefront of mindfulness, place-making, and social justice to cultivate organizations, gatherings, spaces, and experiences rooted in the values of beloved community. As the Co-founder and Organizing Principle of One Village Healing, an online BIPOC centered healing, resilience, and psychedelic wellness space, and the Fireside Project, a nonprofit that is creating systemic change in the field of psychedelics in three key domains: safety, diversity, and equitable access, Hanifa knows how to lead courageously with her heart in collaboration with plant medicine, inner guidance, and her community. In this episode I ask Hanifa about how to embody sacred activism and spiritual resilience. You will learn how to truly be there for someone else through deep and reflective listening. We explore our relationship with power, how to utilize our energy in conscious co-creation, and how to work with rage in a healthy way.  Hanifa is the Co-founder and Chief of Strategy at Through their Psychedelic Peer Support Line, Fireside Project has created a nationwide safety net that has substantially decreased 911 calls and hospitalizations while democratizing access to free high-quality care. The line has supported thousands of callers since launching in April of 2021.    Key TakeawaysUnderstanding our relationship to power is vital in creating a just and equitable society. Gratitude is a great place to start becoming aware of our relationship with power. Then where is the pain? We have to start with self inquiry. Being with another, in their full expression is real peer-support and is a deep practice of ally-ship, without trying to fix or heal them, nor move them away from their present experience.    https://lauradawn.co/free-music-playlists/ (4 Free Playlists For Psychedelic Journeys & Beyond) https://lauradawn.co/free-microdosing-course/ (Free 8 Day Microdosing Course) https://instagram.com/livefreelaurad (Follow @LiveFreeLauraD on Instagram) Resources Mentioned http://www.handsofhanifa.com/ (Hanifa's Website) https://www.bd101.org/ (Beyond Diversity Workshops) http://www.lauradawn.co/52 (…more resources on my website at www.lauradawn.co/52) Featured Musichttp://www.lauradawn.co/52 (Episode #44 of the Psychedelic Leadership Podcast) features a song called "River" by Hanifa Nayo Washington. https://open.spotify.com/artist/53PgA4rDdV78JzOjFaeIA8?si=lfcLC_9SQB-3_niwJWuPvA (Listen on Spotify) https://music.apple.com/us/artist/hanifa-nayo-washington/1289800949 (Listen on Apple Music) Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts"I love Laura Dawn and The Psychedelic Leadership Podcast.”

How can we learn to effectively navigate our thoughts, emotions, and the difficult circumstances that we encounter in life so we can take action that is in alignment with what we value and what we care about?  Combining ancient mindfulness practices and philosophies, and the most modern psychological research, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) provides a model for growth, wellness, and deeper understanding of ourselves and the world around us.  My guest today Dr. Rosalind Watts is a clinical psychologist and the founder of ACER Integration, that goes beyond simply focusing on psychedelic integration, but provides an insightful model for understanding humanity. As the former clinical lead on the Psilocybin for Depression trial at Imperial College London, Dr. Watts led a clinical team that facilitated over a hundred psilocybin treatment sessions. Having recognized that safe and effective use of psychedelics requires substantial integration support, Rosalind co-founded the UK's first psychedelic integration group, and is now launching a global online integration community, ‘Accept, Connect, Embody, Restore' (ACER) where members will follow a 12-month process together, in community.  Her contributions to the field of psychedelic therapy are numerous and include the development of the Watts Connectedness Scale, which is a psychometric tool for measuring outcomes of psychedelic therapy.  The end of this episode explores Dr. Watt's ACER Model through the lens of leadership and dives into the importance of female leadership in the psychedelic space.  ----- I'm so thrilled and honored to be the headlining keynote speaker athttps://click.convertkit-mail.com/o8u32ewd72cqhk3kol5uv/7qh7h8h0qdz385az/aHR0cHM6Ly9hcmlzZWZlc3RpdmFsLmNvbS90aWNrZXRzLw== ( Arise Music festival )at the end of May in Boon Colorado!

Most of us want to see positive change take root in our lives, but as we all know, change is oftentimes easier said than done. Many people come to psychedelics because they want support establishing lasting change, whether it's to heal a relationship, overcome an addiction, or implement healthier habits.   Psychedelic neuroscience is showing us that these mind-altering substances can be a powerful force for change in our lives. Although the wisdom of our plant teachers can offer us clarity and illuminate the path before our feet, they cannot make us walk the path. They might inspire us to show up in a new way, but they can't make us take action. How can we learn to leverage our psychedelic experiences to catalyze meaningful change? When it comes to changing habitual patterns, especially behavioral patterns, we're oftentimes focusing our attention on trying to implement change in the wrong way.  I've packed this episode full of research-backed neuroscience, wisdom teachings, and my personal experience over the last 5 years teaching plant medicine integration. You'll learn a seldom-talked-about shortcut to implementing meaningful change through an 8-step method you can use during your plant medicine integration to more deeply align with and step into the life you truly want to be living.

This episode is a must for ANYONE holding space and facilitating the psychedelic journey for others.  As leaders of this community, we need to learn how to not cause any kind of harm to those we are entrusted to heal, this is why training and being trauma informed is so crucial for anyone holding space.  In this episode Laura Dawn drops in with somatic psychotherapist Laura Mae Northrup about the importance of understanding the power dynamic, consent, what we need to be aware of when it comes to sexual harm, and how not to cause it. Tragically, survivors of sexual trauma are more likely to be sexually abused by the practitioners they go to for healing.  Tune in and you'll get practical guidance you can apply immediately, powerful resources to become more trauma-informed, a more informed perspective about the importance of psychedelic preparation, and get to the heart of understanding trauma so that we can co-create a safer future for everyone. Key takeaways: Absolutely everyone involved in facilitating a container for another's psychedelic journey should become trauma informed and take training. As a community we MUST have difficult conversations with each other, and hold each other accountable for upholding the safety of all. Power dynamics exist that we may not be aware of, and we have to be diligent in getting feedback from our peers if we are unclear about crossing a line. Which training is best for people just entering into psychedelic facilitation.  How healing practitioners can unconsciously cross lines. Sexual Abuse in Patient/Clinician relationships.

In 2015, Tom Eckart and his late wife Sheri Eckert had a vision – a vision that very few people thought was possible. They wanted to make access to psilocybin legal in the State of Oregon, which led them to create and lead the measure 109 initiative.  Five years later on November 3, 2020, Ballot Measure 109 was passed with support from 1.233 million Oregonians, or 55.68% of the vote.  In January 2023, “psilocybin service providers” will be legally allowed to serve psilocybin, as long as they have adequate training. We are less than one year away from the rollout and implementation of Measure 109 which of course opens up a lot of questions.  What does psychedelic facilitations training look like? What is the core curriculum?  Who's offering this training? How much do these psychedelic facilitation trainings cost? How long will they be?  Do you have to be a therapist or medical practitioner to get licensed?  Are there apprenticeship models?  In this episode featuring both Tom Eckart and Alissa Bazinet, a clinical psychologist who serves on the training subcommittee of the Oregon psilocybin advisory board, we dive into all of these questions about the specifics of Measure 109 and what it means for psychedelic practitioners.  In the last part of the conversation, we get more personal as we explore the essence of visionary leadership and what it takes to not only dream the impossible, make it a reality.

Day Schildkret is an artist, ritualist, and award-winning author. He's the author of Morning Altars, and just published a new book called: Hello, Goodbye: 75 Rituals for Times of Loss, Celebration and Change.  As we collectively move through these times of enormous transition, more people than ever are trying to make sense of these times. Rituals and ceremonies are profound tools and catalysts for meaning-making. The power of ritual helps us to make contact with the fullness of the present moment, inviting us to pause and remember how to turn towards and tend to the sacred. Rituals can help us punctuate the chapters of our lives with meaning and purpose and a greater depth of significance.  In this episode, Day shares why rituals are so important, especially right now. He shares various ways of defining and understanding what ritual is and explains the difference between ritual, ceremony, and routine.  https://www.lauradawn.co/44 (Click here to access this episode's page complete with a full transcript, more about the author, and complete list of resources. ) Core ThemesThe significance of rituals Why rituals are so important as we move through times of change Exploring the various definitions of ritual  The act of returning to and tending to the sacred  Ceremony of Life Rites of passage  Why rituals are important for reorienting our lives around meaning  The difference between ritual, ceremony, and routine Rituals and cultural appropriation  The meaning of catastrophe  Microdosing morning rituals Resources Mentioned https://amzn.to/3ve5zBb (Hello, Goodbye: 75 Rituals for Times of Celebration, Loss, & Change) https://amzn.to/3IhS6Mk (The Ritual Process: Structure and Anti-Structure (Foundations of Human Behavior) by Victor Turner) https://amzn.to/3vcezH2 (Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge and the Teachings of Plants) Featured MusicEpisode #44 of the Psychedelic Leadership Podcast features a song called "The Offering" by Aea Luz. https://open.spotify.com/track/5eVmwttoBR5fV29TxWouy1?si=6bd72ad5c1504feb (Listen to Lineage on Spotify) https://aealuz.bandcamp.com/track/the-offering (Listen to Lineage on Bandcamp)

Have you ever considered that the relationship you have with your ancestors quite literally shapes all aspects of your life? Ancestral Healing Guide Torie Feldman makes a strong case for how our relationship to our ancestral lineage impacts your relationship to money, to your body, to your spouse and family and influences the way you live and lead.  In this episode Torie shares her remarkable story that initiated her journey of ancestral healing and awakening, and we dive into what it means to connect with your ancestors, and how to cultivate a relationship with them. Torie shares her perspective on what we can do if we don't feel a strong resonance with our own lineage and how to navigate honoring the ancestry of cultures of a different bloodline.  We look at this conversation through the lens of leadership and explore why it's imperative for the leaders of our time to heal their lineage.  https://www.lauradawn.co/42 (Click here to access this episode's page complete with a full transcript, more about the author, and complete list of resources. ) Resources MentionedBooks https://amzn.to/3HQ854e (Jambalaya: The Natural Woman's Book of Personal Charms and Practical Rituals) https://amzn.to/3HQ854e (By Yeye Luisah Teish ) https://instagram.com/hausofhoodoo?utm_medium=copy_link (House of Hoodoo ) Other Resources Reclaim Your Energy Meditation: https://www.sacredancestry.com/receive-free-meditation (https://www.sacredancestry.com/receive-free-meditation) Wise + Well 5-Day Challenge: https://www.sacredancestry.com/challenge (https://www.sacredancestry.com/challenge) Unveil the Witch Within 3-Day Ceremony: https://www.sacredancestry.com/free-ceremony (https://www.sacredancestry.com/free-ceremony) The Honeyed Womb: https://www.sacredancestry.com/the-honeyed-womb-evergreen (https://www.sacredancestry.com/the-honeyed-womb-evergreen) Use code “Laura20” to get 20% off!  Featured MusicEpisode #43 of the Psychedelic Leadership Podcast features two songs called "Lineage" and "Beads on a String" by Marya Stark. https://open.spotify.com/track/14QRXXayejZsufLCCjhKZS?si=7e63d1bd91cf4625 (Listen to Lineage on Spotify) https://open.spotify.com/track/7DxuN4MyqAAlQ2kJJ5nuwX?si=61d99a5bea9d499a (Listen to Lineage on Bandcamp) https://open.spotify.com/track/7DxuN4MyqAAlQ2kJJ5nuwX?si=61d99a5bea9d499a (Listen to Beads on a String on Spotify) https://maryastark.bandcamp.com/track/beads-on-a-string (Listen to Beads on a String on Bandcamp)

What we are witnessing unfold in the psychedelic movement is truly unprecedented. We are reaching a tipping point where psychedelic medicines are rapidly entering mainstream society.  But is this really a good thing? And how do we make sense of the sacramental and sacred use of psychedelics within the cultural context of late-stage capitalism?  In this episode, Laura Dawn drops in with best selling author of Stealing Fire and Recapture the Rapture, Jamie Wheal, who holds strong opinions about the dark underbelly of the psychedelic movement. Jamie shares the pitfalls we need to be aware of and how this psychedelic party isn't all sunshine and rainbows. Jamie shares his criticisms and cynicism with a twist of hope and invitation to tend to and feed the holy in our lives. This is how we build our lives around meaning 3.0.      Click here to access this episode's page complete with a full transcript, more about the author, and complete list of resources.

Laura shares her deep rooted wisdom on personal and professional growth looking through the lens of neuroscience, ancestral practices and philosophies.

As the psychedelic movement rapidly bolts forward, we might consider looking to the elders for guidance to maintain respect, reciprocity and bridge understanding of the traditions connected to these plant medicines into Western culture.  This episode was from a panel of wisdom keepers, recorded in front of a live Clubhouse audience featuring Otomi-Toltec wisdom keeper Mindahi Bastida,  Loretta Afraid of Bear Cook of Oglala Sioux Nation, and Joyti Ma who is founder of the Fountain and convener of the International Council of Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers.  What are some of the Western psychedelic facilitator training programs missing? How do we stay in right relationship? How do we hold the balance between ancient wisdom and what's needed right now for a Western culture? What does it mean to follow the protocols of the original peoples? Jyoti Ma calls these challenging questions “Points of Study” that require looking at their nuance and complexity from many different perspectives.  Alongside Laura Dawn, host of the Psychedelic Leadership Podcast, this episode was in collaboration with Tricia Eastman from Ancestral Heart, and Sophia Rohklin, from the Amazon Emergency Fund moderating the conversation as bridges for the psychedelic community to facilitate a meaningful exchange.

As we continue to witness the interest in psychedelics rapidly escalating, more and more people are feeling the call to step into leadership roles in the psychedelic space. But leadership can mean many different things and can take many different forms.   In this episode of the Psychedelic Leadership Podcast, Natasja Pelgrom (from the Awaken Podcast) interviews Laura Dawn about Visionary Leadership, what it means to cultivate a practice with sacred plant medicines and be open to receive their transmission, and then what it takes to step out and lead from this heart-centered wisdom.  We explore the nuanced balance of how we need to give ourselves permission to lead but how and why we need to hold the process of stepping out with our offerings with great responsibility, rooted in experience.  Natasja askes Laura Dawn's perspective on how we can set ourselves up for success by cultivating peer-to-peer support groups as well as cultivating relationships with elders whom we respect and can trust to offer us clear, lucid feedback and reflections to help steer us in a good direction. This is also most beneficial when it's built on the foundation of personal practices. Because in the end, we can only take people as far as we've gone ourselves.

Breathwork is making a comeback, and for good reason. Through the simple act of conscious breathing, we can tune ourselves to new ways of being, reduce stress and tap into our body's inherent healing wisdom.  In this episode Laura Dawn drops in with Amanda Laine and Harry Taylor who have dedicated their lives to helping others achieve personal growth and elevated states of wellbeing, creating Inward Breathwork, the world's leading on-demand breathwork platform combining the most experienced facilitators in the world across ancient and new age techniques including Pranayama, Wim Hof and Buteyko method. Amanda and Harry share their very first breathwork experience that transpired at Burning Man and how it radically transformed their lives.  They share their WHY for breathwork: why practice breathwork? Why should we care?  They dive into the science of breathwork and Amanda and Harry offer different breathing techniques for activating the sympathetic nervous systems and parasympathetic nervous systems and the counter-intuitive reason why training the sympathetic nervous systems helps us manage stress. Finally, they offer easy to implement breathing techniques to reduce stress in the moments you need it the most.

Kile Ortigo, PhD, is a clinical psychologist, certified psychedelic psychotherapist, and founder of the Center for Existential Exploration, where he offers depth-oriented psychotherapy and psychedelic integration services.  In this episode we talk about Kile's book, Beyond the Narrow Life: A Guide for Psychedelic Integration and Existential Exploration where Kile offers a powerful roadmap for integrating psychedelic experiences. Kile talks about psychedelic integration for the leaders of our time, a term he coined called "ego whiplash", spiritual bypassing, narcissism, the importance of shadow work and taking the time off for self reflection. Kile also discusses acceptance, how curiosity can only get you so far, and the difference between healthy and unhealthy surrender.

Mahina Nani was born into a bloodline of Ancient Hawaiian Healers that is centuries old and carries the wisdom teachings of Ho’o’pono’pono.  In this episode of the Psychedelic Leadership Podcast, Mahani shares the meaning of H’o’pono’pono. By learning to take full responsibility for our actions and opening to the power of forgiveness, we can step into “right relationship” with ourselves and those around us. When we have the courage to do this, we can then put an end to intergenerational trauma and experience greater harmonious alignment in our lives.  This was also a special episode in honor of Mothers Day. My own mother, Lucy joined us for this conversation and after Mahina opens up a ceremonial container and channels a powerful prayer, my mother and I shed many tears of forgiveness as we share a real-time practice of Ho’o’pono’pono. In a tender and vulnerable moment, my mother asks for my forgiveness around a pre-natal birth trauma that was revealed to me in an ayahuasca journey.   Resources Mentioned  https://amzn.to/2PRe42U (Zero Limits: The Secret Hawaiian System for Wealth, Health, Peace, and More) https://amzn.to/3unKi4W (The Book of Forgiving: The FourFold Path for Healing Ourselves & The World) https://maryisis.bandcamp.com/track/hooponopono (Download Ho’o’pono’pono by Mary Isis for Free on Bandcamp) http://www.livefreelaurad.com/microdosing-mastermind (3-Month Microdosing Mastermind ) https://www.livefreelaurad.com/free-microdosing-course (Free 8-Day Microdosing Course) https://livefreelaurad.com/music-playlists (4 Music Playlists for Psychedelic Journey’s & Beyond)

With the rise of Psychedelic therapy and microdosing for mental health and wellbeing, education, information, and sharing stories allow us to pave the path ahead with more sovereignty, support, and medical liberty. While collectively, the conversations around mental health are no longer taboo nor carry shame, it's time to have discussion around psychedelics and how we can begin to experience decriminalization, legal justice for BIPOC, and more funding for research and resources. With psychedelic leaders like Laura Dawn, there are a group of individuals who have taken this drive and embraced this path as their life's mission and soul purpose. And with the recent Bicycle Day, 4/20, and Earth Day coming up, it's time to recognize that plant medicines are here to help the evolution and healing of humanity and the world of conscious business. In this episode, we talked about... ◆ Infusing Plant Medicine into the world of entrepreneurship ◆ Neurotransmitters + psychedelics and embracing a mindset to see a shift in how we relate to psychedelics ◆ Psychedelic leadership + the preservation of Plant Medicine ◆ Plant Medicine Integration and the importance of set and setting ◆ Ayahuasca Tourism and the practice of discernment when vetting your shaman ◆ How microdosing can support the entrepreneurial world ◆ The visionary path of the creative Bodhisattva ...plus so much more Discover Laura Dawn Microdosing mentor, visionary life coach and business consultant, author, and international speaker, Laura Dawn has been leading transformational retreats for over 10 years.
