Sara LadyFrog – How the divine discomfort of the frog medicine Kambo can empower you; dying to come alive; being a peaceful warrior; how to be a healer; and much more… #23
02/09/23 • 58 min
If you ever feel like a victim of the things that happen to you (rather than empowered to choose your reaction in each moment), then today's episode is for you. Our guest is medicine woman, enthusiastic human, and dear new friend Sara Ladyfrog. She takes us on a deep dive into the warrior empowerment of the frog medicine of Kambo.
In case you don’t know what that is, Kambo is a ritual named after the poisonous secretions of the giant monkey frog, found in the Amazon Jungle. The secretion is humanely gathered from living frogs. When applying the medicine, burns are made on the person’s skin, and the kambo is applied directly to the burns. It’s a very physical, very intense experience.
I’ve worked with Kambo five times since 2009, and every one of those experiences has been incredibly challenging, healing, and empowering.
Listen to this episode to learn more about this medicine, and overall more about what it takes to be an empowered peaceful warrior, to meet life with grace, courage, and the freedom of choosing.
We discuss...
- Sara’s journey from divorce, drug addiction, and alcohol abuse to her path of healing herself and supporting others in healing
- The story of Amazonian children teaching Sara how to wash clothes while watching for crocodiles!
- We could all do with more near-death experiences
- What is a real safe space?
- Near the end, we discuss How to be a healer (the answer might surprise you)
- And, you guessed it, so much more...

From Raw Vegan Fame to Eating Meat – A 22 Year Journey with Sergei Boutenko #24
Finding it hard to be the most authentic version of yourself? Maybe family, friends, and everyone you love thinks you’re crazy to want to change? Are you interested in learning about the dangers of dogma, cults, and believing anything too strongly? Welcome, today’s episode is for you!
Sergei Boutenko has gone through a unique journey, from being a devoted and famous raw food vegan for more than half his life, to finally deciding to incorporate meat into his diet. In this episode, Sergei discusses that more than twenty two year journey and the reasons that led him to his current lifestyle. He also explains the benefits he has experienced from eating meat and how it has changed his life for the better.
Don't miss this exciting episode of the We Are Already Free podcast to hear Sergei's story and get inspired to change the things that are no longer serving you. As Sergei says later in this episode, “A brutal identity shift and receiving lots of hate is worth it because I'm here for the truth”
Some of the topics we cover are
- Why green smoothies is still the best takeaway Sergei had from his raw vegan upbringing
- How wild edibles helped Sergei to eat meat
- The powerful lesson Sergei learned while living with David Wolfe
- Why it’s so important that we choose challenges regularly
- Near the end, the surprisingly simple thing Sergei recommends to live a good life
- As always, there’s much more. We touch on names, which is a topic I want to dive much deeper into in a future episode.
