From Self-Hatred to Soul Connection

from Life, Death & The Space Between with Dr. Amy Robbins

In this episode, I sit down with Gerard Powell, a man who had it all from the outside—multimillions, fast cars, and luxury homes—but was utterly broken inside. After decades of self-destruction, and two suicide attempts, even intensive therapy couldn't reach the root of his pain. In a final, desperate act, he turned to plant medicine. What happened there didn't just save his life; it revealed a childhood trauma he had completely buried and gave him a new heart—literally. Jerry now runs Rythmia, a licensed plant medicine center, and shares the data-backed transformations he's witnessed in nearly 20k people. This conversation is a raw look at how we can become disconnected from our soul and the powerful paths that can lead us back home. 00:00 Intro 05:07 Gerard's Story 07:09 The Depths of Self-Hatred 09:17 5 Years of Intensive Therapy 17:26 The Desperate Trip to Costa Rica and Iboga 17:54 Childhood Sexual Trauma 25:30 Forgiving His Grandfather 26:18 Receiving a New Heart 32:58 Building Rythmia to Help Others 42:40 Healing Physical Ailments 59:14 Are You Out of Sync with Your Soul? 01:04:11 Why Plant Medicine is Suppressed 01:14:15 Final Message Learn More:·        Rythmia Life Advancement Center: www.rhythmia.com  In The Space Between membership, you’ll get access to LIVE quarterly Ask Amy Anything meetings (not offered anywhere else!), discounts on courses, special giveaways, and a place to connect with Amy and other like-minded people.
