In this episode connect with special guest, Simon Yugler, Depth Psychotherapist & Psychedelic Integration Coach. We covered suchhh a rich and diverse array of topics that I'm so excited to share with you. We talk psychedelics, shadow work, leadership, masculinity, and so much more.
Simon is a wealth of wisdom and an excellent resource for living a life full of purpose, meaning, and soul.
In this episode, we take a deep dive into:

❦ The importance of integrating our shadow
❦ Initiation and its purpose in the human experience (and the consequences of its absence)
❦ Grief as a portal to the soul
❦ Conscious leadership and what it means to lead with integrity
❦ The healing potential of psychedelics and how to work with them safely and integrate what we learn from them into our daily lives
❦ Sxuality, masculinity and polarity, both in the modern world and in indigenous cultures
