08/28/23 • 64 min
Have you ever felt the overwhelming pressure of managing multiple commitments? Yeah...same. Let's chat about our self-care while also navigating the growth of our podcast, juggling our own healing journeys, and family responsibilities all at once. As we celebrate milestones, and are grateful for our community, we also wrestle with the challenges that come with this growth and the pressure to keep up.
First and foremost, while we speak on modalities that are still stigmatized, we feel like we have a responsibility to our listeners to provide harm reduction. We've all made decisions we later regret, especially when it comes to substance use. But what if you had the tools and the friends to help you make informed decisions? We share our personal experiences and emphasize the necessity of understanding the risks involved. We also offer resources on our website for individuals interested in these practices, highlighting the need for education and the potential dangers of uninformed engagement.
Every person is unique in their approach to helping others, and it's no different for us. We discuss our distinct ways of aiding others and how these methods can come together to provide comprehensive support. From being direct, to exploring feelings, verbal communication takes precedence over DMs. We also touch on the importance of self-awareness and knowing when to take a break. After all, you can't pour from an empty cup. So, join us on this candid conversation as we unfold our personal struggles and triumphs in this journey of growth and self-discovery, and how we want to continue to show up in this space.

Bijous is a sex, love & relationship guide, microdosing coach, retreat host & psychedelic facilitator. She talks with us about the potential of microdosing to break through personal blocks and mental health struggles and offers profound insights into how this powerful healing tool can be harnessed for personal growth and recovery from past traumas.

Ever embarked on a journey that awakened your soul and transformed you? Our guest, Endora Todd, takes us on an extraordinary spiritual adventure in this episode. We start with an exploration into the wonders of Hapé, a sacred tobacco medicine revered by many indigenous tribes globally.

From a dream to a profound realization of love across all religions, her journey leads her to become a healer and plant medicine facilitator.

Finally, we navigate through the shadowy corridors of our psyche, discussing the power of confronting our darkness to unlock self-love and power. Uncover the beauty of curiosity and how it can lead to greater self-awareness and understanding of the world around us. As we wrap up, we discuss the spiritual significance of Hapé and its role in shaping the new Earth. Prepare to be mesmerized as Endora unravels the profound world of plant medicine.
