I churned a whole bunch of stuff this week and burnt myself out lol (more on that next time), so I'm taking a breather to reflect and explore some root causes for how I feel and live my life today – the seemingly small stressors in my early years that have led to bigger issues like ADHD and CPTSD 🍃View Full Show NotesJoin The Free Weekly NewsletterApply For Our Private Discord------------------Enjoy this episode?Most people find the show through word of mouth.

The leaves are changing and I'm feeling reflective: how did the past year go? What did I learn about myself, the podcast, ketamine, retreats, life (and death)? Maybe grab a nice warm drink and a cozy blanket and take an hour to relax and hang out with me.View Full Show NotesJoin The Free Weekly NewsletterApply For Our Private Discord------------------Enjoy this episode?Most people find the show through word of mouth.

Between catching a cold and family visiting from the East coast, it's been pretty hectic here but also kinda relaxing laying in bed binging Netflix lol.

I've caught a cold, so today I'm resharing my absolute FAVORITE episode from the past 4 years. I recorded this back in 2023, and it's still as relevant today (if not more so) as it was then. This is the episode I always recommend to friends, because it's had such a profound impact on my travel, my churns, my life, and I hope it does for yours too.
