Alrighty guys, this episode is extra special to my heart because it’s officially my last episode (for now) on this show before I transition back to the Highly Optimized podcast, my first project that was birthed in 2019 when I chose to start paving my own path, leave my job & go into the unknown. To say the last 3 years of doing this show has been magical, exciting & heart warming would be an understatement & I truly hope all of you continue to tune in on the Highly Optimized podc...

One of the main reasons I started this podcast was to showcase the stories, experiences & impact these medicines have made upon people’s lives. That being said, I still get goosebumps when I hear those stories as they remind me of the immense power that not only these medicines hold within them, but that we also hold within us. Todays guest on the show is a returning guest, one of my dear brothers in the world & someone who is one of the best story tellers I have ever met & in tod...

For anyone with eyes to see, it’s no secret the world is changing at a rapid rate these days. From political hysteria, to new technology emerging almost daily, it’s safe to say that it’s easier than ever to feel overwhelmed while simultaneously doing your best to keep up. In my opinion, one of the most important & powerful aspects of the new world that we can take the initiative to dive into is the aspect of decentralization. From medicine, to currency, community & more, it’s clear to...

Every episode I do I am excited about, however, this one holds a special place in my heart for a few reasons. First, anytime I get to speak with someone who is as passionate as I am around regenerative agriculture, I geek out like a small school child. This being said, when I get to speak to someone who not only shares that passion, but is creating revolutionary products alongside it that ANYONE in the U.S. can order to have access to clean, organic hemp products, I get even more excited &...

Whenever I have the opportunity to do a podcast with the love of my life, I jump at the opportunity & this week’s episode is no different. Many of you love the episodes here & I do together & our intention with todays episode is to give you a window into our personal life, what astrological shifts have been taking place over the past 3 months, how these shifts have manifested in our life, what we’ve learned in the process & much, much more.

One of the main reasons I love podcasting so much is, yep, you guessed it, I adore speaking, however, speaking to myself alone in a room is a little weird & definitely not the same experience as when I get to speak to others who stimulate my curiosity, peak my inspiration & remind me of how epic & infinite life can be. As such, this show has become a zone of excitement & growth for me of sorts, consistently allowing me to open myself up to the unknown, to others subjective vie...

Whenever today’s guest & I get together, I know it’s going to be an epic conversation. From working together the last two years creating the Breathe With Cannabis brand that many of you have attended already, to traveling to epic places together, creating memories & more, to say I am grateful for his presence in my life would be an understatement. As such, him & I were talking recently about one thing we both feel strongly about, which is the idea that healing is an inside job &am...

One of, if not my favorite types of stories I enjoy hearing from the psychedelic space are the stories that come from individuals who, at one point, did not resonate with psychedelic medicines at all. You guys have heard me say before & I’ll say it again that for me, I never judge anyone who is opposed or not interested in psychedelic medicines because the truth is nothing is for everybody, however, when someone finds their own way into these medicines & has powerful results thereafte...

I am sure you guys know what I mean when I say that sometimes I find someone new out there in the world & just cannot get enough of their content & perspective of the world. For me, I take these types of experiences as signs. Signs that perhaps we knew each other in a previous lifetime, signs that obviously something within what they’re teaching is resonating with me on a deep level & above all else, signs that I am meant to find them at the time I did & boy is todays guest a ...

One of the areas within the psychedelic space that is extremely important, yet often overlooked, is the ability for these medicines to assist in the process of grief. Grief is something that all of us, no matter what background, ethnicity or age group, go through from time to time. This being said, grief is also one of the main challenges that many of us have never learned how to deal with & as a result, the opportunity there in for psychedelics to support in this process is huge. Today’s...

Chances are this isn’t the first time you’re hearing the term “Ayurveda”. For those of us who identify as spiritual seekers, the world of ayurveda is one we hear of often & already practice to some degree in our lives (where my shilajit lovers at?”. However, I know for me, that although I knew a *little* about ayurveda, I had long been fascinated with the topic & had wanted to learn more. Well, this week, I had the opportunity to sit down with an Ayurvedic expert & let me tell you...

Sometimes in life, I meet people that just feel like a breath of fresh air in my life. It’s hard to put into words what I mean by that, but for those of you who have experienced this notion, I imagine you know exactly what I mean & todays guest is a woman who I can confidently say has done that each time I have connected with her. She is a trauma informed psychedelic advocate & medicine worker, is a bioenergetic somatic coach & is a woman dedicated to helping her clients liberate ...

As you guys may have heard on my episode 200 solo cast last week, my favorite part of this podcast is meeting individuals that once I meet, I truly have no idea how I’ve gone my whole life not knowing. The truth is that the relationships in our life are designed to act as mirrors, allowing us to see the beauty in individuality & also to see ourselves in ways we otherwise couldn’t. Today’s guest on the show is a man who fits all the aforementioned details to a T. He is a certified psychede...

Wow guys…what a journey it’s been. It’s hard to believe that this podcast is already at episode 200, but, like they say, time flies when you’re having fun. In this episode, I decided to do something I’ve only done once before & do a solo cast where you guys can hear more of how this journey has been for me, the challenges I’ve experienced along the way, some of my favorite aspects & memories of doing this show & some new creations I’m working on. I want to say, from the bottom of ...

The emerging world of psychedelic medicines, accompanied by the ancillary industries associated with them, is bringing with it a LOT of opportunities. For me, being as how I grew up in the world not generally interested in most of what other people did, I have long been excited at the thought of new industry emerging that can do its part in shaking up the typical way we’ve been taught life has to be. Things such as what medicine truly is & how to reach optimum health, the role that things...

Each time I have the opportunity to do a podcast with someone who fills my heart up with joy & inspires me to dig deeper into my mission I have a blast. This being said, todays guest on the show is a woman who although I only met recently, has become a fast friend of mine & in that, we’ve found a lot of commonality in what we love & how we serve in the world. From her intro into psychedelic medicines such as Ayahuasca, to how she’s taken the wisdom she’s gained from these experien...

For any of us that love psychedelic medicines, one thing that quickly becomes apparent is their ability to rapidly transform our mental landscape, including shifting belief systems, architecting new stories for us to live life through & ultimately allowing us to wake up to the truth of who & what we are as divine beings living out a human experience. That being said, we can’t necessarily connect with psychedelics at all times which begs the question of what we can do in our everyday l...

I am fortunate enough in my life to be able to do what I love each day of my life & a BIG part of that is the love I have for podcasting. As such, I truly love & deeply enjoy all the episodes I get to do & have a blast connecting with new people, however, some episodes just touch my heart in ways that are extra special & todays episode is an example of that. Todays guest on the show is a woman who I have been fortunate enough to support in the conscious Cannabis Collective for...

One of the things that most people who do not utilize psychedelic medicines in their life would not immediately see a link between is how psychedelics can allow us to become better business owners & leaders, however, in my opinion, these things being linked together make SO much sense, as has been the case for me, because they allow for an expanded look at one’s life & as such, they can allow us to ensure we are still on the path that lights us up on every level of our being. When thi...

You guys know that feeling you get when you meet someone who makes you feel more safe knowing they’re walking the planet the same time you are? This is the exact feeling I got when I originally met the guest for today’s episode. This man is someone who is SO full of love, joy, magic & FUN that it is immediately apparent to anyone fortunate enough to cross paths with him & I am forever grateful that he has entered my life. Friends like him remind me of my power & the magic of life ...
