254. Leaning Into Life, Breathwork and Plant Medicine with Giovanni Bartolomeo
Today’s guest, Giovanni Bartolomeo, is a full-spectrum entrepreneur, personal development coach and breathwork instructor who holds a deep reverence for the power plant medicine. After establishing himself within his multifaceted, but more traditional, career path—with a wife, kids and a nice BMW in the driveway—Gio realized that he still felt empty inside. Not too long after that, he found himself amidst a plant medicine ceremony in a foreign country, at which point his family and friends became fully convinced that he had lost his mind. Slowly, but surely, Gio’s shifted demeanor and outlook on life became undeniably apparent and the people around him began to listen. He’s since assumed the role of spiritual teacher, with the aim of helping others find a similar type of fulfillment and purpose for themselves.
In this episode of The Wellness Witch Podcast:
- How Gio was influenced by the constant hustle and grind of his Italian culture
- The google search that changed the course of Gio’s life
- What happened after Gio’s documentary film file was corrupted
- How he independently developed the elemental breathwork technique
- Plant medicine’s impact on Gio and Samantha
