What seemed to be a correlation at the time wreaked havoc on Grace's health and thankfully she is recovered...

This is what they don't tell you about being in your twenties...   People talk a lot about grief after losing a loved one...but what about when you lose what you thought would be your dream job?

We talk about...

BUCKLE UP baby because I am about to take you on a JOURNEY. As you listen to this episode, I invite you to open your mind and transcend with me beyond the boundaries of ordinary perception. I will be fully immersing myself (and you, dear listener) back into my first-ever experience with psilocybin (mushrooms) where we unveil a new layer of reality...spoiler alert, it's pretty incredible.

In this episode, I dive deep into this question of: "Who Am I?". Because let's be honest...aren't we all just trying to figure that out?  We are ever-growing, ever-changing, and ever-evolving human beings. Who I am in THIS moment (at the time of recording this podcast) may not be who I am in a year, ten years, or even tomorrow. If there's one lesson that you take away from this episode, it's that...
