Almost a year ago, I was a guest on the Aubrey Marcus Podcast. I am still not completely sure how, but it was a series of synchronistic events that led to a "before and after" for my writing career. I had been on a podcast or two before that, but after the AMP release, I've been on dozens. Aubrey generously shines his megaton spotlight on the occasional up-and-comer like yours truly and I am grateful.
We have a lot in common. We both believe in the power of psychedelic plant medicine. We both appreciate wisdom from a wide variety of spiritual traditions, the interfaith mystics in particular. And we both believe that "original sin" is a big 'ol lie. I wanted to give Aubrey the opportunity to mythbust common misconceptions around spirituality and New Age, as well as a few criticisms I see about him--by people who don't him or know his work intimately. We had a great time and I hope you enjoy.
