1203: Psilocybin, Plant Medicine, Psychedelics: A Journey Into Surrender & Emotional Freedom with Eddy Tony

What if the freedom you’re craving isn’t on the other side of doing more—but of letting go in a way you never have before?

In this deeply personal episode, Heather sits down with ceremonial guide and psychedelic facilitator Eddy Tony, the man who held space for her own ceremonies.

Heather opens up about why she was initially resistant to psychedelic work, how it found her anyway, and what it revealed that traditional personal development practices never could.

Eddy shares his own emotional “dark night of the soul” and how it led him from party culture and burnout to becoming a sought-after guide for transformational healing. Together, they dive into what it actually takes to surrender, the difference between desperation and readiness, and why true leadership requires emotional discomfort.

In this episode, Heather and Eddy explore:
*How to approach psychedelic work responsibly—and how to know if it’s aligned
*Why “bad trips” are not actually bad but incredible reflective opportunities
*The energetic boundary tools Eddy uses to hold space for deep transformation
*The identity shift that happens when you stop outsourcing your healing

Healing isn’t always logical. Sometimes the most powerful growth happens when you stop managing everything—and trust the deeper work to unfold.

Bio:
Growing up near London, Ontario, I was raised in a home shaped by Catholic (my mother) and Buddhist (my father) influences. As the eldest of three, I developed a deep curiosity about life’s big questions but drifted from faith in my twenties.

I owned a Thai restaurant and gay nightclub for ten years. A health and lifestyle crisis became a turning point, leading me into the wellness industry and inspiring me to open a boutique fitness studio.

As a coach, I witnessed incredible transformations. But when my youngest brother fell 17 stories to his death, I was pushed to reconnect with my spirituality and explore my inner world more deeply.

I took a 2.5-year healing sabbatical, studying Eastern Medicine and Indigenous healing. In 2019, I opened a private home practice in Toronto. My urban retreat now serves the community with support for mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical challenges.

I’m here today because I followed my passion and purpose. It’s a true blessing to do this work, and I look forward to working with you.
