S2 | E8 Luke Lindstrom, Conscious Channel and Intuitive Healer

I first crossed paths with Luke Lindstrom at a Paul Selig workshop last fall, and from the moment we started talking I knew I wanted to get him in front of a microphone. Luke is 28 years old, grew up outside of Detroit, and by his own description was barely functioning by the time he finished high school — isolated, angry, lost in pornography addiction, and cycling through therapists who never asked the right questions. What turned things around wasn't a prescription or a traditional talk therapy breakthrough. It was a somatic therapist in Texas named Steven Terrell who looked at Luke in their very first session and said, simply: you are so angry. That moment of being truly seen cracked something open.
From there, Luke's path wound through Loyola University, Sivananda yoga, a deep immersion in the channeled teachings of Matt Kahn, and eventually his own emergence as a conscious channel — someone who describes the experience as a kayaker being guided by a stream, personality and divine intelligence meeting somewhere in the middle. He's built a YouTube channel and social media presence around that work, and he posts multiple times a week.
What I find most striking about Luke isn't the channeling itself — it's the lived honesty he brings to everything adjacent to it. He talks openly about pornography addiction and the years it took to genuinely resolve it, not through white-knuckling but through learning to meet himself with love and curiosity. He talks about being 28 and never having been in a romantic relationship, and he doesn't frame that as a wound — he frames it as clarity. He believes you can't receive a real partnership until you've stopped needing one to feel whole.
We also go deep on his day job as a peer support worker in a mental health residential facility, and what it's taught him about stigma, humility, and the razor-thin line between stability and homelessness. Luke's perspective on the unhoused people he encounters — both at work and around his Old Town neighborhood — is one of the most grounded, unsentimental expressions of unity I've heard on this show. He's not theorizing about oneness. He's making friends with the guy outside the grocery store.
We also touch on Ho'oponopono, Paul Selig's attunements, somatic body work, the chemical imbalance myth, antidepressants, judgment as a form of avoidance, and the way pain in the body just wants to be acknowledged. A rich, wide-ranging conversation recorded on Valentine's Day — the first day of the Fire Horse in the Chinese calendar. Felt auspicious.

Special Guest: Luke Lindstrom.

S2 | E6 Wendy Perkins Shoef, ADHD Microdosing and Neuro-Pleasure Coach and More

In this episode, I sit down with Wendy Perkins Schoef — ADHD coach, microdosing guide, and neuro pleasure coach who specializes in working with solo entrepreneurs. Wendy shares her remarkable origin story: raised by a single Catholic mom in LA, navigating an ADHD brain through college and careers spanning real estate, biometrics, and web development, before finding her true calling after a divorce sent her on a journey of sexual self-discovery and eventually into orgasm coaching and nervous system work. We dig deep into her holistic framework of Goal, Set, Setting, and Intention — the foundation she uses whether she's helping a client build their business, choose a microdosing protocol, or regulate their nervous system. We talk about the differences between psilocybin and LSD as microdosing tools, why LSD is a "non-specific amplifier," and how the right substance choice depends entirely on what's going on in your body, mind, and environment. We also get into the profound connection between sexual energy and creative energy, the jaw-pelvic floor link, yoni dearmouring, the stigma around prostate work for men, and harm reduction resources for those exploring psychedelics. Wendy also opens up about parenting her son Max, who was born with a brain injury, and how that experience has deepened her understanding of the nervous system and shaped her approach to her work.

About Wendy

Wendy is an ADHD microdosing and neuro-pleasure coach, researcher, and co-host of the Psychedelic Revelations podcast.

She works with brilliant, creative, capable people who are also a little bit fried—navigating chronic stress, ADHD, burnout, or all of the above. The ones who’ve read the books, tried the supplements, made the to-do lists, and yet still feel tired but wired, overthinking everything, spinning in place while their responsibilities grow by the hour.

Wendy’s approach is rooted in a core belief: your nervous system is sacred, pleasure is a birthright, and ADHD symptoms are signs of a dysregulated nervous system—not a broken brain. Through microdosing support, nervous system regulation, embodied practices, and a BIG helping of tech support, she helps people remember their own divine intelligence and step back into who they truly are so they can make the impact in the world they’re meant to do.

Her work blends research, lived experience, and a deep reverence for the body’s wisdom to support transformation that actually lasts.
