S3E05: Aga Somaheart: Embracing Authenticity and Living Outside Societal Norms

Recently, I sat with Aga Somaheart, a trauma informed Breathwork practitioner, Kambo and Bufo facilitator, and plant medicine guide. She has over 12 years of professional experience working in a variety of healing arts and spirit plant medicines.  Our paths crossed during a sailing retreat in Greece. On this day, we took a dingy to a cute spot on the beach and had a fun, deep conversation. Listen in on our discussion where we talk about the journey to authenticity, self-acceptance, and five simple, yet powerful rules of life to live by. Find Aga: @aga.somaheart (IG) thesomaheart.com
