There's a good chance if you listen to this show, you struggle with some degree of perfectionism or perfectionistic thinking.

But wait, there's more, because if you drink coffee on an empty stomach, you're going to hurt your hormones! It's really fucking...

If you've spent any time hanging around the spiritual community, you've probably heard the terms, "masculine and feminine energy" by now. I personally think they way these are being talked about... really fucking sucks, misses the mark entirely, and can keep you from the fullness in your relationships (with yourself and others) that you desire. This is something my partner Chris and I talk about often, so we decided to bring that conversation public and share our thoughts. In this show, we break...

Have you ever felt like your body and metabolism just "weren't the same" after years spend trying to diet and get "fit?"

Today we are getting REAL vulnerable. I've never really talked about this in full, raw form on any of my platforms. In 2021, I embarked on a psychedelic medicine ceremony with a very powerful medicine - Bufo, or 5-MeO-DMT. That experience took a turn when I came home and my integration went south, or more specifically, went dark. That experience launched me into a real-life existential crisis, and it was one of the most challenging times in my life. This episode is an unfiltered tell-all. *CONTE...

We've all been there - life comes at you fast, or mental health struggles hit, and you suddenly find yourself in the middle of an icky, sticky, mucky funk. Like you're in swamp. And that is decidedly... not the vibe. I found myself in a really high stress season this summer, and sure enough, funk was I in. My mental health tanked, my health, performance, and body composition did a nose dive, and I overall just... didn't feel great (which is an understatement). So, I'm sharing with you some of my...
