The Wolf & the Buried Secret
In this short episode, Jennifer recounts her powerful healing experience at an ayahuasca retreat on the beaches of Costa Rica. Contrary to Western medicine, ayahuasca treatment focuses on the energetic body to open a pathway to healing. Containing the potent psychoactive DMT, this psychedelic is brewed with tea and drank to induce altered states of consciousness. Ayahuasca can bring undiscovered truths to the surface, and help you revisit memories that shaped you at a young age - and this is exactly what our host experienced. After learning about plant medicine and listening to others experiences with ayahuasca, Jennifer decided it was her turn to give it a try. Healing requires support, and on this retreat she had the help of two healers to guide her through the use of icaros, or magical songs. She was able to confront her past, gain insight into her life, and most importantly, release feelings she had been holding on to for decades. Jennifer was able to do all of this in a positive way, not reliving her pain but visiting it with a different point of view. If you’re interested in plant medicine for healing trauma, this episode is a must-listen! Disclaimer: this episode has multiple mentions of childhood sexual trauma.

The Magic Tea & the Tumor
The Magic Tea & the Tumor Season 02, Episode 20 We, as humans, are more powerful than we can fathom. We have the ability to heal with our minds and our bodies at such high levels, only when given the opportunity. Sometimes, to get to that awareness, it takes opening up parts of our minds that have been dormant for a long time. That is where plant medicine comes in. Plant medicine, when used in a safe and controlled environment, has the ability to open our mind and heart up in ways that can transform us from the inside out. This is something host Jennifer Wallace experienced after receiving her breast cancer diagnosis, and was called to plant medicine treatment. The treatment had a profound affect on Jennifer, in that it changed the way she saw her breast cancer and inevitably the way she healed it. This is a powerful episode that will open your mind to a new way of healing, integrating plant medicine and neurosomatic intelligence to create a powerful combination of intense transformation and healing. Tune in to hear Jennifer’s story and how you can connect with her to start your healing journey.

What is CPTSD?
Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is only recently beginning to be recognized thanks to the Healing Revolution but its roots actually go back to Freud in the 1800’s. Complex CPTSD sets itself apart from PTSD by five distinguishing trauma responses and likely stems from an adverse childhood experience, a developmental trauma, a failed environment. With brain science coming so far in the past twenty years we are now more clear about how trauma affects a developing young brain. Stress, trauma, and unresolved stress responses create a dysfunctional brain. When our bodies are more stressed it can create a chronic illness or disease state within the body. It’s all just one giant loop. How can we understand this in our own life? Maybe you will find yourself within Jennifer and Elisabeth's stories or their clients' stories. And understand what you may have thought was a personality trait is actually a trauma response. This conversation discusses What is CPTSD The difference between CPTSD & PTSD Dr. Judith Herman, Dr. Pete Walker Emotional Flashbacks, Toxic Shame, Self Abandonment, Inner Critic, and Social Anxiety Possible causes of CPTSD including early childhood sexual trauma Our experiences with CPTSD Emotional neglect is a core wound Development of the fundamental belief system Babies don’t have complex understanding of the world around them All abandonment is self abandonment Working with your nervous system to build awareness and recognize trauma responses Nervous system regulation How does CPTSD challenge society? This conversation is the beginning of a long conversation about CPTSD as we will be breaking down its components individually.

Psychedelic Integration meets Neurosomatic Intelligence
Mental Health Crisis, Trauma, Psychedelics .... big words during these times. Plant medicicne is not a quick fix and the lack of support on the backend during integration is staggering. I know because I've been to the best centers and even theyre trying to figure it out. There are people who understand integration but they aren't often trained in nervous system regulation and healing. Join me as I share with you the importance of bridging the two worlds of Psychedelic Integration & Neurosomatic Intelligence. It's within the nervous ssytem that anything you want is possible. Thanks to your already existing neural plasticity you always have the capactiy for change and then you add a powerhouse plant medicine that increases that capacity and potentially catapault you into any direction. Maybe the change you desire feels scary, perhaps you unlocked a deeply buried scary trauma, how about that hard conversation, or intentioanlly blowing your world up to leave the mundane 9-5 and live a life of purpose. Everyone's path is very different based on what comes through, where our attention and intention lies, and what we are healing or processing. Remember change is threatening to your brain so learn your unique nervous system and create the life you desire. I can help you. Nothing about your journey is going to dysregualte me, I can hold space for you, and keep your nervous system safe. Behavior change is my jam and so are sacred spaces.
