  • Summary

  • Please join us for episode fifty in which Open Deeply’s co-host, who is a psychotherapist and a two-time cancer survivor, discloses the intertwined psychedelic journey and cancer journey that she experienced throughout 2023. The story begins with a psychedelic journey at a retreat center deep in jungles of Costa Rica that changes the trajectory of her life for close to a year. During her last psychedelic experience at the retreat center, her lung area felt like a concrete block. She tried to use all her somatic psychotherapy skills to move it through to no avail. She describes how she finally resolved her suffering and what happened once she returned home. She had learned from listening to countless stories of psychedelic journeys, that it’s not wise to ignore the medicine if it focuses on a body part. So, upon returning to L.A., she decided to get her lungs checked. Months later, the biopsy results revealed that she had a small tumor in her lung. The doctors kept asking, “How did you know to come in?” Strange but true. Now, most people describe cancer as a monster. We often here, “F*ck cancer!” But what if, in some cases, cancer has something to teach us. In Kate’s experience, she states that although having cancer both times was brutal, the lessons it has taught her keep coming. She describes it as more of a spiritual journey that has provided tremendous growth. And she has lived to tell us about it in this episode. So, join us, for another episode of Open Deeply, in which we will find out why so many cancer survivors ask the question, “Why did it take cancer to teach me how to live?” Kate's Bio: Kate Loree, LMFT, is a sex-positive licensed marriage and family therapist with a specialty in non-monogamous, kink, LGBTQ, and sex worker communities and the author of Open Deeply: A Guide to Building Conscious, Compassionate Open Relationships.
