Happy Friday everyone, hope ya’ll had a good holiday weekend with your loved ones. Today I have friend/ therapist Vanessa Nguyen back on the show. On her previous episode she said she would be going on a plant medicine retreat. On this episode Vanessa recalls her trip down to Tulum, her experience taking plant medicine guided by shamans. Vanessa talks about taking mushrooms & DMT: which caused her to confront fears, past trauma, the passing of her father while also being able to let go in an intense yet beautiful and transformative way. We also talk about the power of surrender & the need to let go of control in areas of our lives we have no control over and more. Thank you for sharing your journey with us Vanessa!
