122: The Psychedelic Paradox: Healing or Hype?

In this episode, I sit down with former lawyer turned psychedelic facilitator Julie Hagen to explore the world of psilocybin microdosing and its potential for healing anxiety, depression, and trauma. We dive deep into the myths and realities surrounding psychedelics, examining whether they're truly transformative medicine or just another wellness trend.

✨ Topics Covered

➡️ What psilocybin actually is and how microdosing differs from "tripping" - including safe dosages and what to expect

➡️ The connection between somatic processing and psychedelics for trauma healing without re-traumatization

➡️ Why intention setting matters and how to approach psychedelics with emotional rather than outcome-based goals

➡️ The concept of "no bad trips" and how challenging experiences can lead to deeper transformation

➡️ Contraindications for psilocybin use and practical steps for someone curious about exploring it therapeutically
