Psychedelics as Catalysts for Creativity with Laura Dawn
This is Episode 4 of the Boldly Embodied Podcast- Welcome back!
Tune in for a lively and inspiring conversation with Juliana Rose and Laura Dawn, keynote speaker, microdosing mentor, and host of The Psychedelic Leadership Podcast. In this episode we dive into Laura Dawn's fascinating work at the intersection of creativity, change leadership, and psychedelic medicines and how she not only teaches on this path but how she lives it.
The modern Western narrative about psychedelics is greatly centered around their clinical use as alternative treatments for modern maladies such as anxiety, depression and PTSD. And while this is certainly an important part of the narrative in terms of survival, these medicines can also offer profound insights into connection, pleasure, play, rest, and creativity. These are powerful forces when it comes to thriving as humans. Within each of us is the potential to become the architects of our lives, cultivate the blueprints in our minds, and court the courage that it takes to do what is ours to do in our lifetime.
Some key topics in this episode:
