In this week’s episode of the Mushroom Mamasita Podcast, I chat with a man who once viewed psychedelics, spirituality and “woo” with skepticism but found himself answering the call to do the “work” after his loving wife experienced a dramatic shift in her own mental health.
He takes us on a journey from deep resistance to radical remembrance. He shares how medicine retreats helped him release control, reconnect to his authentic self, and begin healing long-standing patterns of suppression, burnout, and people-pleasing. This episode is packed with insight on surrendering to the unknown, building trust with your intuition, and making space for a more soul-led way of living.
We talk about partnership, masculinity, fear, and the importance of feeling your feelings in a culture that tells you to numb them. His reflections are tender, wise, and deeply relatable for anyone especially men who are waking up to the truth that there’s more to life than the grind.
This is an episode about trusting the call, even when you don’t understand it. About letting the medicine do what it does best: help you remember who you are.
Every episode I will share a book that I feel supports the message or theme of each show. I feel called to share The Honeymoon Effect by Bruce Lipton
Listener discretion is advised: This podcast discusses sensitive topics related to trauma, abuse, addiction and psychedelic therapy, which may be sensitive or triggering for some listeners. I encourage listeners to engage mindfully and take care of themselves throughout the conversation.
