This is a special episode. I was approached by a company called MycoMeditations that wanted to sponsor the podcast. They actually were very persistent and approached me a few times about it because they were really interested in the opportunity to speak with you all. MycoMeditations is a company that hosts retreats in Jamaica that use the psilocybin mushroom, also known as the magic mushroom. It’s an often misunderstood substance that research has shown to be an effective way to reduce the impact of treatment-resistant mental illness such as depression and anxiety.

This is a really interesting interview with Dr. Anna Yusim, a psychiatrist who specializes in mental health and spirituality. We talk about Anna’s own journey towards spirituality as well as how spirituality can help create a deeper connection with yourself. We dive into the positives of taking a spiritual approach, when it might be dangerous to do so, and how spirituality doesn’t necessarily have to be linked to religion. Anna also offers advice on becoming more connected to your inner self and learning to listen to your intuition.

This is a really nice interview with psychiatrist Dr. Suvrat Bhargave. We talk about lessons that he has learned in his practice including how to let go of shame and why you don’t need to hit rock bottom to have important moments of insight. He is very personable and cares about meeting people where they are at rather than speaking in jargon and working hard to seem like the expert. He challenges the stereotype that psychiatrists are unapproachable and only want to focus on medication management.
