Leading With Spirit
Leading With Spirit is for healers, ceremonialists, psychedelic facilitators, and practitioners who know there's a deeper layer to their work and are ready to go there. Each episode goes into the spiritual dimensions of practice that most training skips over: leading from you own original medicine, and showing up with the kind of presence that actually changes people.
