On this week’s episode, Shiri Godasi is back for a followup interview to share about the latest unfoldings in her life, including new developments in her work, as well as the many changes that have come as a result of becoming a single mom following her separation from her former partner. Michaela and Shiri share deeply about the joys and challenges of being on the path of becoming an individuated, integrated being, and how powerful it can be when leaders in the psychedelic space vulnerably reveal their humanity.
