In this episode, I share about my transformative journey with plant medicine in Peru. I explain the physical sensations, the discomfort I felt and how I worked through it, the visions I saw, the reflections I had, and the profound lessons I learned throughout the experience. I share this with you in hopes that some of my reflections will resonate with you. Sending you so much love.
