  • 306 - Creating Psychological Safety in Psychedelic Work with Kacey Cardin
    Jan 28 2025

    This week we take a hiatus from the ‘usual’ facilitation content, to journey into the wonders of the psychedelic with Kacey Cardin, as she introduces us to its sacred, healing powers.

    Working with LSD, psilocybin, MDMA and Ketamine as her co-facilitators, Kacey safely guides people - from public figures to leaders - into a state of therapeutic self-discovery, where the unconscious mind becomes conscious, and deep expansion can start to take place.

    Step into this fascinating world with us, as Kacey shares the miraculous possibilities of neuroplasticity, somatic integration, and listening to callings from the universe.

    Find out about:

    • The ancient wisdom of psychedelics and plant medicine
    • The importance of establishing psychological safety through energy and environment
    • Kacey’s process of integration: from somatic work, to talking, and post-therapeutic journaling
    • How Kacey ‘prescribes’ her treatment, using a blend of intuition, experience, and emotional & physical health evaluation
    • The healing of the nervous system and the emergence of neuroplasticity

  • 305 - From Limiting Beliefs to Inclusive Leadership with Aim-on Wongsaparn
    Jan 21 2025

As a coach and facilitator, a liberator of limiting beliefs, and someone who shares a rather unexpected similarity with Barack Obama, Aim-on is a fervent advocate that everyone can realise their potential - when they know how.

    Press play to banish the self-doubt, break your bias, and get inspired.

    • The practical strategies needed to challenge your own limiting beliefs
    • How to recognise your self-talk and tune into your thinking mind
    • The importance of expressing emotions to cultivate compassionate, connected relationships
    • Why we must make the implicit explicit when cultural, hierarchical differences are at play
