In this solo episode, I sat down after my return from Peru and hit record with no script—just a pulse. What came through was a wide-ranging, honest reflection on everything from sacred medicine to Canadian politics to my own evolving path.

Here’s what I dive into:

🌿 Ayahuasca retreat in Peru — the format, the setting, singing in ceremony, and what’s stayed with me since

🔥 Integration — the lifestyle changes I’m embodying post-ceremony

✈️ Touristing & hard NOs — learning shed the old life in Peru

❄️ Leaving winter behind — escaping the cold and the need for well-being

🇨🇦 Canada’s current landscape — the economy, politics, and a real talk on Wexit

🌍 What community even means — and where I feel it, or don’t

🎧 Jus Talkin’s evolution — the podcast's mission, direction, and renewed intention

💼 Opus shifting into Corporate Wellness — getting the root cause

🧠 The pain I carry for men — and why this work still grips my heart

🙏 My relationship with God — and what that even means for me right now

This episode is honest, gritty, and pulled straight from the moment.

No polish, just truth.
