This is a bonus rebroadcast episode of my guest appearance on The Thought Room with Hallie Rose, which was recorded at Soltara in Costa Rica at the end of a week-long ayahuasca retreat. We discuss the profound spiritual healing and awakenings I experienced during the four ceremonies that week, and it’s honestly one of the most vulnerable and intimate conversations I’ve had on mic. While it's a bit nerve racking to publish it, I felt that it might be helpful to listeners who are working to overcome similar challenges of life and spiritual growth. And if you haven’t heard them yet, go back and check out my epic two-part episode that gives a play-by-play of the whole Soltara experience.
