We Say Weird Sh*t

In this episode, we explore a personal journey through plant medicine: from psilocybin to a guided ayahuasca retreat in the Peruvian Amazon. Lessons emerge through kambo sessions, ego dissolution, and emotional release. While physical purging reflects stored trauma, breathwork unlocks new awareness. This conversation offers an honest, grounded perspective on psychedelic healing, surrender, and the most vital step of the process: the real work of integration.

We explore a confronting question: can the body heal trauma the mind can’t process? In this episode, we see healing as three layers: mental understanding, physical release, and spiritual growth. Through somatic workshops and bodywork, we learned healing doesn’t have to be complex. Ancient cultures used breath and movement long before we intellectualized it: moving, breathing, and being present is enough to begin.

In this episode, we unpack why everything feels performative, including us. From curated Instagram personas to workplace masks and “I’m fine” scripts, we explore what authenticity means in a world that rewards performance. We talk about vulnerability, silence, and emotional honesty, and the freeing realization that no one is watching as closely as we think. A raw conversation about dropping the act, softening the armor, and finally letting yourself be seen.

What does “home” mean when you’ve lived in multiple countries? In this episode, we share our experiences of building life abroad, exploring how home can be a feeling, rituals, or the people around you. We reflect on belonging everywhere yet nowhere, and how adaptability and curiosity can turn rootlessness into a superpower. No how-to guides: just our journey of creating home wherever we are.

This first episode isn’t about topics or takeaways. It’s about beginnings. Two longtime friends finally start a project they’ve talked about for years, sharing how they met and how a friendship stretched across countries turned into the impulse to record these conversations. They talk about why this podcast exists at all: a resistance to polished personas, rehearsed opinions, and content that performs instead of connects.
