10. What Makes Sara Berlin Well

“It’s like 10 years of therapy in one concentrated episode!”

On this week’s episode, I chat with PTA, Sound Healer and Artist, Sara Berlin. We discuss Sara’s journey of self discovery and emotional growth via psychedelics and hallucinogens. We laugh about our mutual love for the spiritual teachings of Ram Dass and the not-at-all spiritual reality TV show, Love after Lock-up. Sara also gets personal about her current health situation and talks about listening to her body when it’s telling her she’s getting overworked. Enjoy!
