Episode 42: One in 8 Billion

In this illuminating episode of the Mushroom Mamasita Podcast, Iva shares the experience and insights gained from working with the mushrooms. Iva opens up about her expansive journey as a multidimensional woman navigating entrepreneurship, identity, and personal healing. This is a story for anyone who’s ever felt “too much” or “not enough” for traditional success pathways and who’s ready to step into a more soulful, self-defined version of leadership.Together, we dive into how the medicine helped Iva feel safe enough to be her whole self no more fragmenting, shrinking, or playing small. She shares how mushrooms helped her reconnect to her intuition, embrace her sensitivity as a superpower, and trust the unique path her soul is here to walk.We explore what it means to build a business from an authentic, regulated nervous system especially when you've grown up with ancestral trauma or high-achieving dissociation. From branding to burnout to bold reinvention, Iva’s story is a permission slip to integrate your healing and your hustle.If you're a creative, coach, or visionary trying to balance your inner world with your outer mission, this conversation is medicine.Every episode I will share a book that I feel supports the message or theme of each show. I feel called to share The Radiance Sutras by Lorin Roche.Listener discretion is advised: This podcast discusses sensitive topics related to trauma, abuse, addiction and psychedelic therapy, which may be sensitive or triggering for some listeners.  I encourage listeners to engage mindfully and take care of themselves throughout the conversation.Connect with Bijou FinneyIG: @mushroommamasitaWebsite: mushroommamasita.comConnect with IvaInsta/threads: @ivaoftheheartYouTube: https://youtube.com/@ivaoftheheart1:1 support: https://cal.com/ivaoftheheart
