Ep 74: When you *know* there's something standing in the way of your growth but you can't put your finger on it

When my dear friend Katherine came to me a few months back and said "I did mushrooms and I need  to tell you what came up," it wasn’t the mushrooms that had me going; it was the way this modality fit within the larger frame of her work on herself.

So often I speak with folks about how tired they are — tired of reading all the books and doing all the therapy and trying all the things. They do and don’t want to keep working on themselves. It’s just….where is it getting them? Is it really making a difference? The relationship, the job, the body the person, still isn’t there. So what gives?

It’s so easy to hunger for a single solution (even if it's long term) to all our problems. But the journey is more like a six part play, with different acts and unexpected intermissions and many an understudy. Katherine and I break all this down in the episode. Even if you have zero interest in psychedelics — which is totally fine(!) — you’ll still benefit tremendously from understanding how the different puzzles pieces of healing fit together for your own evolution.

If you find yourself….

  • Feeling this pull to go deeper but not sure where to direct that energy

  • Going in circles of attempts to heal and feel like none of it is really  working

  • Are contemplating other modalities – be it psychedelics or simply an alternative form of therapy — I want to hear about someone else’s experience

  • Have been curious about exploring psychedelics and want to hear an account from someone who was incredibly thoughtful and sound in their approach

  • Are feeling generally stifled in your life, and unclear as to what’s really going on

Then this episode is for you! Huge thanks to Katherine for being so open and honest about this experience. If you'd like to learn more details about the program she underwent, shoot a DM to @ithinkilikeyou.co on Instagram.
