256 - How to Get Comfortable in Authenticity with Bijou Finney, The Mushroom Mamasita
from The Amy Edwards Show · host Amy Edwards
Bijou Finney, also known as Mushroom Mamasita, is a Medicine Woman, Integration Alchemist, and Retreat Creatrix whose work lives at the intersection of plant medicine education, psychosomatic healing, and visionary life design. She works with conscious entrepreneurs, couples, and women who are ready to come alive, helping them clear blocks across pleasure, purpose, prosperity, persona, and power through somatic practices, plant-based wisdom, and therapeutic coaching.In this episode, Bijou and I go deep into a side of authenticity that doesn’t get talked about enough. Not the curated, Instagram-friendly version—but the real, lived, sometimes uncomfortable experience of actually being yourself. We explore why authenticity can trigger resistance in others, why being honest often costs you approval, and how self-love isn’t always soft, but rather, it’s often brave.We talk about archetypes, nervous system responses, identity shedding, and what happens when you stop performing who you think you’re supposed to be. This conversation is raw, grounded, and incredibly timely, especially if you’re feeling a pull toward truth, clarity, and aligned action in this next chapter.This episode is for anyone who’s done pretending, done shrinking, and ready to live from a deeper place of integrity, even when it’s messy.Follow Bijou and learn more:Her program mentioned in the episode: https://www.mushroommamasita.com/crystalcodehttps://www.mushroommamasita.com/https://www.instagram.com/mushroommamasitahttps://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/bijoulea-finney/episodes/Please remember to rate, review, and follow the show – and share with a friend!Check out our new Comedy Wellness Podcast: Anything But Mid, cohosted with Whitney Stropp:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/anything-but-mid/id1849386215https://www.youtube.com/@AnythingButMidFind Amy’s affiliates and discount codes: https://amyedwards.info/affiliatepageSky Rock Sedona: https://www.skyrocksedona.com/20% Discount Link:https://www.marriott.com/event-reservations/reservation-link.mi?id=1759866624184&key=CORP&app=resvlinkAll links: amyedwards.infoInstagram: @realamyedwardsFight For Her: fightforher.netTikTok: @themagicbabeYouTube: YouTube ChannelPodcast: The Amy Edwards Show PodcastFree Course: The Ageless MindsetFull Course: The Youthfulness HackWork with Amy: Book a Call Let’s get you to your HAPPIEST and most RADIANT!
