Mikaela is a trailblazer who defies norms and we love her courage, her passion, and our educational experience with her on the pod. She is on a mission to provide open-source, community-driven data for a seldom studied area in psychedelic research – mushrooms and mothers. She is currently working on preliminary results from 300 testimonies in the Mothers of the Mushroom survey.
We talk about psilocybin use as a sacrament and a spiritual medicine, its categorization by the US government as a schedule 1 substance, the history of its use dating back to our ancestors, and its place in the home today.
Some may think this is a controversial episode and we think it’s enlightening and educational. As always, listen with an open mind.
