When life gets hard, we turn to our female friends. Husbands, partners, and jobs come and go, but close friendships are our bedrock. Until they're not. What happens when these bonds sabotage instead of support? Who among us has the courage to walk away? And how can we protect ourselves from further heartbreak? In Estranged: How Strained Female Friendships Are Mended Or Ended (Meridian Editions, 2025) Susan Shapiro Barash takes a deep dive into the complexities of female friendships. By peeling back the societal narrative that our friendships are meant to last forever, she uncovers a more nuanced reality: the closest bonds do falter. Through groundbreaking research and 150 interviews with women ranging in age from 20-80, Barash reveals an emerging trend - estrangement among female friends. Estranged is an eye-opening investigation/practical guide for women navigating murky waters of suboptimal friendships. The book sheds light on unspoken pain of estrangement - both for the "estranger" who walks away and the "estrangee" who is left behind. Amid candid confessions of betrayal and grief, Barash challenges women to reimagine their friendships and take the bold step of letting go when necessary. This cutting-edge book offers an empowering path forward: learning to prioritize self-worth, stability and authenticity over loyalty to friendships that no longer serve us. Susan Shapiro Barash has written more than a dozen nonfiction books including Tripping the Prom Queen, Toxic Friends and You're Grounded Forever, but First Let's Go Shopping. For more than 20 years she taught gender studies and Marymount Manhattan College and has guest taught creative nonfiction at the Writing Institute at Sarah Lawrence College. Her fiction is published under her pen name, Susannah Marren. Deidre Tyler, PhD - Sociologist, Instructional Technologist. Learn more about your ad choices.

What happens when you've spent 22 years walking a sober path—only to realize there are still parts of your soul left unacknowledged and unhealed?In this deeply personal conversation with Zach Leary, I reflect on how I redefined sobriety through the lens of trauma healing, psychedelics, and self-trust.For two decades, I'd stayed clean and sober and done the work. But some pieces—especially around sexuality and relationships—stubbornly persisted. Funny as it might sound, it was my first ayahuasca ceremony that actually brought me to a whole new level of recovery and authenticity.The truth is, the 12 Steps were always meant to bring about a spiritual experience. Psychedelics just gave me a different door into that same house. They helped me see the trauma I didn't even know I was still carrying. And ironically, it was those decades of practicing rigorous surrender that allowed me to yield even deeper to the medicine work and broaden what my spiritual awakening could look like.

Join them along the way as they cross borders and head into the primaeval forests of Bialowieza and the vast marshlands of Biebrza - both complex ecosystems, alive with the sounds of mammals, birds and amphibians.

In this episode of Perspectives, we speak with Benjamin Breen and Jonathan Moreno on the history of psychedelic drugs in America. There is a resurgence of interest in psychedelics in the medical world as possible treatments for conditions such as depression, anxiety, and PTSD. This resurgence comes after a period during which psychedelic drugs were thought to be dangerous and have no medical value. An earlier perception was more optimistic. Figures such as Margaret Meade and Timothy Leary looked to drugs like peyote and LSD to allay fears, provide insights, broaden cultural perspectives and lead to chemical enlightenment. As mainstream institutions take yet another look, join us to examine the changing legal, medical and cultural perspectives on psychedelic drugs. Benjamin Breen is Associate Professor of history at the University of California, Santa Cruz. His second book is Tripping on Utopia: Margaret Meade, the Cold War and the Troubled Birth of Psychedelic Science. In addition to his academic publications, his writing has appeared in the The Washington Post, Paris Review Daily, The Atlantic, Slate, Aeon, The Pacific Standard, The Chronicle of Higher Education, The Public Domain Review, Nautilus, and Lapham's Quarterly. Jonathan Moreno is the David and Lyn Silfen University Professor Emeritus at University of Pennsylvania, where he works on bioethics, health policy, and the history and sociology of biology and medicine. He is the author of six books and numerous academic papers, and his work as also appeared in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Science, Nature, Slate, Politico, The Hill and Foreign Affairs.

It's always an astral journey when P.D. Newman materializes at the Virtual Alexandria, this time to discuss his new book Tripping the Trail of Ghosts. Let's explore ancient Native American beliefs surrounding mystic portals and the afterlife journey, often called the Path of Souls or Trail of Ghosts. This includes discovering how powerful psychoactive plants and visionary concoctions likely played a crucial role in preparing for this spiritual passage and evoking liminal states. Newman will share how ritualized initiations and shamanic practices aimed to provide firsthand knowledge of supernatural realms and the Land of the Dead.

In this episode of the Heal with Kat Podcast, Kat and Susan Shapiro Barash, author and women's studies expert, dive into female friendships. These friendships can be powerful, supportive, and deeply meaningful—but they can also be messy, painful, and even toxic. We explore the emotional terrain of female friendships, conflict, estrangement, and explore why so many women feel pressure to stay in unhealthy friendships, the emotional cost of betrayal, and how societal expectations (and even the "mean girl" mentality) influence the way women relate to one another. With warmth and honesty, they unpack how friendship breakups can actually be a path to healing and self-discovery.Time Stamps: 00:00 – Introduction 02:55 – Why Female Friendships Are So Complicated 06:10 – Spotting Unhealthy Dynamics + Betrayal 14:58 – The Weight of Societal Expectations + Mean Girl Mentality 21:02 – What Healthy Female Friendships Look Like 27:00 – How Our Mothers Shape Our Friendships 33:06 – Breaking Up with a Friend: Grief & Growth 36:08 – Final Thoughts

In this episode, I talk with author and esoteric explorer P.D. Newman about his powerful new book Tripping the Trail of Ghosts: Psychedelics and the Afterlife Journey in Native American Mound Cultures. Together, we dive into the mysterious world of Southeastern Native American shamanic practices—specifically those connected to death, rebirth, and the spirit realm.Newman uncovers a largely overlooked legacy of entheogenic use among the Mississippian mound cultures, where potent plant allies like jimsonweed, nightshade, morning glory, psilocybin mushrooms, and even an ayahuasca-like brew he calls Missihuasca were used in sacred rites to connect with other realms.These powerful psychoactive journeys formed the basis for initiatory rites and afterlife preparation, centered around what was known as the Trail of Ghosts or Path of Souls—a visionary passage believed to carry the soul into the next world.We also explore the profound role that the compound DMT played in these ancient traditions. One of the biggest revelations is his rediscovery of Missihuasca, a Southeastern analogue to ayahuasca that may have been used by Native shamans to enter deep trance states and receive spiritual revelation in their earliest history.Together, we delve into the symbolic and energetic significance of the mound structures themselves, and their striking parallels with other sacred afterlife maps—like the Egyptian and Tibetan Books of the Dead.It's a riveting glimpse into a forgotten system of ancient spiritual technology designed to guide the soul through the ultimate mystery.

Dear Arroe, Hi. Husbands, partners, and jobs come and go, but close friendships are our bedrock. Until they're not. What happens when these bonds sabotage instead of support? Who among us has the courage to walk away? And how can we protect ourselves from further heartbreak? In her provocative new book, “Estranged: How Strained Female Friendships are Mended or Ended,” (Meridian Editions) well-known gender expert and bestseller Susan Shapiro Barash takes a deep dive into the complexities of female friendships. By peeling back the societal narrative that our friendships are meant to last forever, she uncovers a more nuanced reality: the closest bonds do falter. Through groundbreaking research and 150 interviews with women aged 20 to 80, Barash reveals an emerging trend — estrangement among female friends. Examples of unhealthy friendships: 1. The Faithless Friend: Always there until a third party drives a wedge between you. 2. The Wayward Friend: Drawn to questionable or dangerous behavior. 3. The Green-Eyed Friend: Jealous and secretly rooting for your failure. 4. The Thieving Friend: Betrays you by stealing your ideas, opportunities, relationships. 5. The Disparaging Friend: Tears you down with relentless criticism disguised as “honesty.” She uncovered how these suboptimal friendships can impact mental health, why women avoid conflict even in damaging relationships, the emotional trauma of cutting ties with a friend and estrangement as a radical yet necessary act of self-preservation. Barash sheds light on estrangement—both for the “estranger” who walks away and the “estrangee” who is left behind. She challenges women to reimagine their friendships and take the bold step of letting go when necessary. This cutting-edge book offers an empowering path forward: learning to prioritize self-worth, stability and authenticity over loyalty to friendships that no longer serve us. Barash has written several nonfiction books, including Tripping the Prom Queen, and A Passion for More: Affairs that Make or Break Us.

Send us a textEver feel like you need a getaway yesterday—but without the airport drama, packing chaos, or actually, y'know… leaving town? Same. That's why we were downright shocked to discover Rob Wallace Park, a stunning hidden gem just 25 minutes from home that somehow managed to stay off our radar for over a decade. (Rude.)Armed with nothing but leftover snacks from the fridge and a fierce need to escape our home office walls, we set out on an unplanned adventure—and ended up stumbling into pure magic. Picture this: forest bathing with chirping birds, turtles popping up to say hi, and a 70-foot-deep quarry formed by accident (because of course it was). It was equal parts history, serenity, and “why didn't we do this sooner?!”This episode is your reminder that peace, beauty, and a little soul refresh don't require plane tickets or perfectly curated Pinterest itineraries. Sometimes, all it takes is stepping outside, being present, and letting nature do her thing.We're spilling the tea on what made this park a total win—think accessible trails, clean bathrooms (praise hands!), educational wildlife stations, and tools like AllTrails and Eventbrite to help you find your next local escape.So, Divas, here's your challenge: what magic might be hiding in your own backyard? It's time to be a tourist in your own town. You never know what you'll find… but we're betting it's just what your soul's been craving.Leave us a message!

In this enlightening episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, we welcome Susan Shapiro Barash, trailblazer in gender studies and author of Estranged: How Strained Female Friendships Are Mended or Ended. Together, we unpack the often-taboo subject of female friendship breakdowns—why they happen, the emotional toll they take, and why letting go can be an act of self-love. Drawing insights from 150 interviews with women aged 20 to 80, Susan shares stories of betrayal, jealousy, and shifting values that lead to friendship estrangement. This episode invites listeners to reflect on their own relationships and offers permission to prioritize well-being over outdated notions of loyalty. About the Guest:Susan Shapiro Barash is a celebrated author and gender studies expert with over 14 non-fiction books, including Toxic Friends and Tripping the Prom Queen. Her latest book, Estranged, explores the hidden complexities of female friendships, revealing why some relationships fade and how women can navigate these shifts with grace and empowerment. Key Takeaways: Friendships aren't always forever—and that's okay. Betrayal, jealousy, and diverging values often fracture bonds. Letting go of toxic friendships is an act of courage, not failure. Women often avoid conflict in friendships due to cultural conditioning as "pleasers." Emotional healing from friendship loss requires self-reflection and self-compassion.

“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom."I remember coming across this quote at Burning Man years ago. It's from writer and essayist Anais Nin. It struck me then, and it reverberates for me still.This photo was taken that year. That sky is particularly specific to that time of evening, as the heat of the day dissolves into gorgeous blue & purple hues.I remember my friends and I were stopped at an art piece, after gallivanting around the playa on our bikes, weaving in and out of the dust and denizens of Black Rock City.That year was the Temple of Transition, and it was a threshold that changed everything.It was then I learned of the role of grief and the necessity to come together in tending the endings that make us human. It was then I recognized my marriage was over, even though it was another year before we parted ways.Recently I had the impulse to look up the words from Anais Nin, and discovered the rest of the quote:"Life is a process of becoming, a combination of states we have to go through. Where people fail is that they wish to elect a state and remain in it. This is a kind of death. Living never wore one out so much as the effort not to live. Life is truly known only to those who suffer, lose, endure adversity and stumble from defeat to defeat. Perfection is static, and I am in full progress."I love that. That a live worth living is not one of striving for success, but a willingness to fail again and again. This is how one comes to know life. To blossom is a risk. To expose your vulnerability, your authenticity and your creativity is to expose yourself rejection. To dare to become. Somewhere in there, your soul comes alive. This is the spirit of my upcoming Awakening the Wild Erotic, an ritual immersion for men release dysfunctional patterns around “eros,” the primal force of life, and step into a new phase of aliveness. This will our 5th time running the event, and men have found the container incredibly valuable. Upcoming AWE Dates: April 4-6, 2025 Vancouver Island has a few spots left. (Last chance to apply now!) We are also bringing AWE to the Montreal area July 18-20, 2025. Get the full details and apply here.Podcast RoundupOver the last few months I've been featured in a number of great podcasts. I figured I'd round them up as a digest and share below. The Authentic Man - Mythopoetic Masculinity and Navigating Conflict in RelationshipI really enjoyed this conversation with David Chambers, where we cover a number of topics, including: Domination vs. Partnership Culture, Reconditioning for Connection, Support systems for couples, Regenerating Culture, The Power of Deep Partnership, Understanding and Dealing with Jealousy, How to deal with conflict in a relationshipEvolving Man - Iron John And The Foundations Of Mythopoetic MasculinityA solid conversation with my longtime friend Ben Goresky. In this episode, I share my journey into the mythopoetic men's movement, which explores masculinity through myth, initiation, and men's groups. I open up about how the death of my grandfather led me to this work and helped me understand the challenges of modern manhood, especially in a culture that lacks clear rites of passage. We discuss the archetypes of the Hero and the King, dive into the themes of Iron John, and explore the importance of men's circles for personal growth and emotional support. We also reflect on the rediscovery of lost initiation practices, reconnecting with passion, and embracing The Deep Masculine to navigate life's stages and challenges.The Smiling Human - Myth as Medicine: Addressing the Crisis of MeaningIn this conversation, Oak Mountain and I discuss the themes of mythopoiesis, masculinity, and the cultural narratives that shape our understanding of identity. We cover the importance of myth in making sense of the human experience, the evolution of masculinity through different cultural eras, and the current crisis of meaning faced by many men today. RiverFlow - Weaving Love, Eros & Men's WorkIn this episode, Harry Friedman and I explore into rich territory. We explore the metaphor of polyamory as a wetland and “relational exclusivity” as a river, to understand different approaches to love and relationships. We dive into the traditional views of elder mentors around marriage and matrimony, contrasting those with the ideas of free love and open relating, particularly those espoused in the Tamera research project. We also discuss how romantic relationships can serve as vehicles for healing, while community plays a crucial role in the broader process of personal and collective healing.Tripping with Nick SunFinally, you're invited to check out this episode with Nick Sun', whose podcast “seeks to explore the fundamental question: How do we live as human beings during these crazy times without losing our freaking minds?”Thanks for reading.

In this episode of Freak Family Favorites, we ask, Did Magic Mushrooms Make Us Human? And Why Is That Guy Getting Pelted with Turnips? In this mind-bending episode of The Box of Oddities, we dive into the Stoned Ape Theory—the wild idea that psychedelics might have turbocharged human evolution. Did our ancestors owe their intelligence to a little fungal inspiration? Then, we journey to Spain's Jarramplas Festival, where a man willingly gets pelted with turnips for reasons that remain as mysterious as they are bruising. Finally, we ascend into the eerie world of the ghosts of Mount Everest, where lost climbers are said to wander the frozen peaks—forever. Is it the altitude playing tricks, or are restless spirits still summiting? Prepare for an episode packed with brain-expanding theories, high-velocity root vegetables, and spectral mountaineers. Because when it comes to history, science, and the unexplained, The Box of Oddities proves truth is always stranger than fiction. #WeirdHistory #Paranormal #StonedApeTheory #JarramplasFestival #GhostsOfEverest #BoxOfOddities If you would like to advertise on The Box of Oddities, contact advertising@airwavemedia.com Learn more about your ad choices.
