info_outlineDo you want to align your inner self with how you interface with the outside world? When you elevate your leadership game (the way you think, feel, and act), you elevate your sense of spirit, freedom, passion, and your quality of life. Would you consider using plant medicine (or psychedelics) to help you gain that alignment?
When you have everything and still feel that something intangible is missing from your life, here’s one way to explore the depths of your inner world to see what comes up and how it can change you.
In today’s conversation with Jonathan de Potter, we speak about elevating your leadership and discovering more joy by exploring deeper levels of consciousness. Because to lead your business, you need to be aligned - body and mind - inside and out.
In this episode, we dive deep into what psychedelics can do for you, how the journeys (ayahuasca and others) can help you shift deep patterns, and ask if there are other types of knowledge we can access beyond conventional knowledge. Would you dare to try?
Tune in, gain some information, do the research and make up your own mind.
