This One Time On Psychedelics

Chances are this isn’t the first time you’re hearing the term “Ayurveda”. For those of us who identify as spiritual seekers, the world of ayurveda is one we hear of often & already practice to some degree in our lives (where my shilajit lovers at?”. However, I know for me, that although I knew a *little* about ayurveda, I had long been fascinated with the topic & had wanted to learn more. Well, this week, I had the opportunity to sit down with an Ayurvedic expert & let me tell you that I learned a TON. She has spent countless years not only studying Ayurveda, but also yoga, meditation, energy healing & various lifestyle tools & in this episode, we dive into how she has incorporated these modalities together to truly create something remarkable. This episode was produced by Mazel Tov Media.https://www.highlyoptimized.com @therealryansprague

Sometimes in life, I meet people that just feel like a breath of fresh air in my life. It’s hard to put into words what I mean by that, but for those of you who have experienced this notion, I imagine you know exactly what I mean & todays guest is a woman who I can confidently say has done that each time I have connected with her. She is a trauma informed psychedelic advocate & medicine worker, is a bioenergetic somatic coach & is a woman dedicated to helping her clients liberate their inner power through the work she does with them & in this episode, we dive deep into her journey, her experience of surviving hurricane Helene, how the tools & methodologies she has learned supported her through that process & much, much more.This episode was produced by Mazel Tov Media.https://www.highlyoptimized.com @therealryansprague

As you guys may have heard on my episode 200 solo cast last week, my favorite part of this podcast is meeting individuals that once I meet, I truly have no idea how I’ve gone my whole life not knowing. The truth is that the relationships in our life are designed to act as mirrors, allowing us to see the beauty in individuality & also to see ourselves in ways we otherwise couldn’t. Today’s guest on the show is a man who fits all the aforementioned details to a T. He is a certified psychedelic medicine practitioner, is a microdosing psilosopher (great pun by the way) & is the founder of entheosholistics, which is a company dedicated to reconnecting its customers & clients to their grateful nature through Fungi based nutraceutical microdoses. In this episode, we let the divine take the lead & our intention is that this episode opens you up to some new perspectives & leaves you feeling more connected to your higher self than ever before. This episode was produced by Mazel Tov Media.https://www.highlyoptimized.com @therealryansprague

The emerging world of psychedelic medicines, accompanied by the ancillary industries associated with them, is bringing with it a LOT of opportunities. For me, being as how I grew up in the world not generally interested in most of what other people did, I have long been excited at the thought of new industry emerging that can do its part in shaking up the typical way we’ve been taught life has to be. Things such as what medicine truly is & how to reach optimum health, the role that things such as community play in a human beings life, what “work” is & how we can make it more engaging & meaningful & the list goes on & on & on. The challenge within this new emerging space, however, is that because of its rapid growth, it can oftentimes be challenging to discern what is real, what is false, who to listen to, how to keep yourself protected, etc. That is why I am SO excited to share with you this week's guest on the show. He has made it his mission to support others in wading through this emerging field with confidence & clarity through his business, the “Inner Circle”. The Inner Circle is a community of vetted plant medicine pioneers, leaders & entrepreneurs all working collectively to navigate compliance, reduce guesswork & ultimately have one another's backs in this emerging space. So, please help me in welcoming my man Matthew Ritchey to the show! Contact Matt for more info: Matt@innercicrle.bizThis episode was produced by Mazel Tov Media.https://www.highlyoptimized.com @therealryansprague

For any of us that love psychedelic medicines, one thing that quickly becomes apparent is their ability to rapidly transform our mental landscape, including shifting belief systems, architecting new stories for us to live life through & ultimately allowing us to wake up to the truth of who & what we are as divine beings living out a human experience. That being said, we can’t necessarily connect with psychedelics at all times which begs the question of what we can do in our everyday lives to continue to reveal the fabric of our mental landscape so we can ensure that what we are growing in this landscape is by conscious design, rather than unconscious inheritance. Todays guest on the show is a woman who is a master of hypnosis, biohacking & of course, psychedelic medicines & over the course of her life, she has made it her mission to live her life as an example of what can occur when we choose to wake up in the dream & ultimately create the best dream possible for us to not only live ourselves, but to also inspire those around us to dream bigger as well.

I am fortunate enough in my life to be able to do what I love each day of my life & a BIG part of that is the love I have for podcasting. As such, I truly love & deeply enjoy all the episodes I get to do & have a blast connecting with new people, however, some episodes just touch my heart in ways that are extra special & todays episode is an example of that. Todays guest on the show is a woman who I have been fortunate enough to support in the conscious Cannabis Collective for the better part of 18 months & to be fair, when she began the program she was already doing absolutely incredible work with the Cannabis plant, however, I have watched her tap into more & more of her power over that time & truly create something revolutionary within not only the Cannabis space, but the tantra space as well. She is a medicine worker who specializes in combining the medicine of Cannabis with the medicine of tantra & in her work, she has transformed the lives of not only countless individuals, but also countless couples as well, bringing them into deeper union with themselves & as such, anything & everything external to them as well.Guest Links:Zipporah's Website InstagramThis episode was produced by Mazel Tov Media.https://www.highlyoptimized.com @therealryansprague

One of the things that most people who do not utilize psychedelic medicines in their life would not immediately see a link between is how psychedelics can allow us to become better business owners & leaders, however, in my opinion, these things being linked together make SO much sense, as has been the case for me, because they allow for an expanded look at one’s life & as such, they can allow us to ensure we are still on the path that lights us up on every level of our being. When this occurs, we can create a business that is the perfect depiction of who we are as both an individual & also a part of god & in todays episode, I sat down with a dear friend of mine & a coach who has helped me immensely within the realm of business. In this episode, we dive deep into his journey into psychedelic medicines, how they have supported him in his life & how the work he now does was inspired through what psychedelics showed him. This is an episode that anyone who is either already an entrepreneur or is an inspiring entrepreneur will take a LOT away from.Guest Links: Ani's WebsiteYouTube ChannelCoaching SessionsThis episode was produced by Mazel Tov Media.https://www.highlyoptimized.com @therealryansprague
