In this episode I sit down with Christopher Solomon, a somatic salvia guide based in Mendocino County, California, to explore a plant that most people either know nothing about or fear outright. Christopher walks me through his long, winding path with Salvia divinorum — from a strange first encounter in high school in Dallas to the spontaneous healing of a swollen lymph node that doctors wanted to surgically remove. We dig into why the conventional "smoke a big bowl and brace yourself" advice gets it completely backward, and how working with tiny, titrated doses paired with meditation transforms Salvia into a gentle, relational teacher rather than a terrifying five-minute ride. It's a conversation about reverence, somatic awareness, and the surprising therapeutic range of one of the most misunderstood plants out there.

In this episode, I sit down with Katie Simons — a doctor of pharmacy turned hypnotherapist, somatic breathwork facilitator, and psychedelic medicine guide — for one of the most wide-ranging and personally resonant conversations I've had on the show. We trace her journey from a decade inside the VA healthcare system to stepping fully into the healing space, and dig deep into psychedelics, nervous system regulation, integration, and what it actually means to be healed.

In this episode, I'm joined by Wendy Perkins Schoef — the "Success Doula" — an ADHD, Microdosing, and Neuro Pleasure Coach who helps solo entrepreneurs grow their businesses by working with their whole selves, not just their to-do lists. Wendy walks me through her four-pillar framework of Goal, Set, Setting, and Intention, and how she applies it to everything from microdosing protocol development to nervous system regulation to sexual wellness. We explore why psilocybin and LSD work so differently as microdosing tools, how unresolved emotional dysregulation shows up as business stagnation, and why creative energy and sexual energy are ultimately the same thing. We also talk openly about yoni dearmouring, prostate work, the societal shame still wrapped around bodies and pleasure, and the importance of harm reduction when exploring psychedelic medicines. This is a rich, honest, and wide-ranging conversation about what it really means to run a business — and live a life — as a whole, embodied human being.
