Ep174: Leslie Draffin ~ Microdosing, Menstrual Cycles & Breaking Taboos Oct 11, 2024

Show notes

Ever wondered how psychedelics could catalyse a journey of profound self-discovery and healing? Join us as we sit down with Leslie Draffin, a former TV news anchor who found herself at a breaking point in 2022. Through her candid storytelling, Leslie unveils how the pressures of her career and the 'pandemic''s impact led her to explore the therapeutic potential of psychedelic mushrooms. This transformative experience brought long-standing issues, including sexual shame from a herpes diagnosis, to the surface, guiding her toward a path of authenticity and self-acceptance.
Leslie shares her empowering transition from maidenhood to embracing the full spectrum of womanhood, notably choosing not to have children. Through her spiritual growth with mushrooms, she learned the importance of being open to receiving in all aspects of life. She discusses her career evolution from a news anchor to a podcast host, driven by the desire to have uncensored, profound conversations about taboo topics like sexual shame and the mother wound. Her experiences underscore the significance of understanding one's menstrual cycle and the empowerment that comes with embracing the dark feminine archetypes.
The episode delves into the unique connections between womanhood, psychedelics, and self-discovery. Leslie highlights how psychedelics can help women reconnect with suppressed aspects of themselves, facilitated by an awareness of their natural cycles. We also touch on the benefits of microdosing mushrooms for both men and women, and how it aligns with our biological rhythms. Listen in for transformative insights on the balance between leadership and intuition and practical guidance for those interested in starting their microdosing journey. This episode is a treasure trove of wisdom for anyone seeking personal growth and mental well-being.

Ep 173: The Sweet Ache of Life ~ Embracing the Full Spectrum of Human Sensations Oct 07, 2024

Show notes

Have you ever wondered why you sometimes feel an undefined ache within you, even when everything seems perfectly fine? This sensation is an intrinsic part of our human existence. In this episode of Truth and Transcendence, we explore the concept of the "ache of life," a neutral and powerful feeling that signifies our mere presence in the world. This sensation isn't about pain or suffering; it's the sweet ache of being alive, felt through beauty, love, joy, and even sorrow.
Throughout the episode, I encourage you to tune into this pure, sweet ache and recognise it as a sign of life itself. By shifting our focus from seeking constant comfort to embracing the full spectrum of human sensations, we can find joy in the simple fact of our existence. This week, relish the powerful energy of being alive and appreciate the bliss that comes with this ache. Let's celebrate our corporeal existence and the myriad of feelings that come with it.

Ep 168: Marcus Aurelius Higgs ~ Self-Love, Spirituality & Transformative Storytelling Sep 20, 2024

Show notes

What if you could truly embrace your authentic self and inspire others to do the same? Join us for an invigorating conversation on Truth & Transcendence with our special guest, Marcus Aurelius Higgs. Marcus shares a deeply personal story from his childhood—intentionally underperforming on a gifted programme test to avoid higher expectations. This revelation sets the stage for a broader discussion about the importance of self-acceptance and the journey to embracing one's true identity, particularly for those like Marcus, who grew up as a third culture kid navigating multiple cultures.
Our exploration continues with a heartfelt discussion on the spiritual experiences that have shaped Marcus' life and communication philosophy. From his upbringing as a Seventh-day Adventist to transformative moments in multiple culturescapes, we delve into the rich tapestry of experiences that broadened his understanding of spirituality. Influences like Rupert Spira introduced him to non-dualism, and his relationship with his father deeply impacted his career as a communication coach for parents. These threads weave together to form a narrative emphasising sincere belief and well-being as core principles guiding Marcus' life and work.
Finally, we unpack the transformative power of storytelling and slam poetry, especially in processing emotions and stress. Marcus's journey into poetry, inspired by an HBO documentary, highlights the healing and expressive potential of this art form. We also discuss how narrative theory informs his work with parents, helping them understand themselves and communicate more effectively with their pre-teens. Marcus shares his expertise in conducting impactful parenting workshops, such as "14 Conversations to Have Before 14" and "Creating a Digital Plan as a Family." This episode is a treasure trove of insights on leadership, both within the family and beyond, making it a must-listen for anyone committed to personal growth and effective communication.

Ep 167: Elitism, Discernment, Self-Knowledge & Relationships Sep 16, 2024

Show notes

Ever wondered if elitism could actually be a force for good? In this episode, I unravel my complex relationship with elitism, influenced by my early love for Robert Heinlein's science fiction. I share how identifying with Heinlein's elite characters shaped my sense of self but left me questioning the broader societal implications of elitist thinking. A recent debate with a friend who sees elitism as a tool for discernment sparked a deeper reflection, inviting you to ponder the delicate balance between discernment and premature judgment.
Join me as I recount my professional experiences diagnosing organisational cultures and power structures, emphasising the importance of withholding judgment and maintaining equanimity. From being both underestimated and overestimated in various settings, I've learned the value of patience and open-mindedness. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of how we evaluate others and the impact of elitism on our connections and relationships, urging us to rethink our approach to understanding those around us.
