After nearly two decades in educational leadership—serving as a teacher, school counselor, and administrator—Megan Butler now brings her gifts to the world of mental health as a child and adolescent therapist.

episode Rev. Lynda Elaine Carré: You’re Safe to Go – Spiritual Support at Life’s End artwork

Rev. Lynda Elaine Carré: You’re Safe to Go – Spiritual Support at Life’s End

Rev. Lynda Elaine Carré is a certified interfaith chaplain and end-of-life educator whose work lives at the threshold between spirit and science. In this conversation, we explore the distinction between religion and spirituality—especially in palliative care settings, where the veil is thin and meaning-making becomes sacred. Rev. Carré shares how a personal vision quest led her to seminary and into the clinical world of hospice and hospital-based chaplaincy. We speak about the beauty of the human in transition, and the often-overlooked creativity and mysticism that can arise when we are asked to feel our impermanence. She speaks to the education of dying as a process, the wisdom of the body at the end of life, and how to support a loved one in transition through grounded spiritual presence—not bypass. “You’ve got this. You’re okay to leave. I’ll love you forever. You’re safe to go.” As Rev. Carré reminds us, spiritual liberation is not a solitary path, and we don’t have to navigate it alone. 🌿 Connect with Rev.

Diana Esther: "My Soul Is My Healer"

What happens when we let the soul take the lead? In this episode, transformational teacher, poet, and “soul doctor” Diana Esther joins us for a powerful conversation on healing, consciousness, and living a life of purpose. Raised in the Soviet Union, Diana shares the pivotal moments that brought her into deep relationship with her soul—especially in the face of challenges logic couldn’t solve. We explore the wisdom that illness often carries, the suffering that emerges when passion is repressed, and Diana’s unique understanding of consciousness as a living, embodied state. With poetic clarity, Diana reminds us that returning to wholeness begins with listening to the voice within. ✨ Learn more about Diana's work: The Diamond Within [https://www.thediamondwithin.co.uk/] 📘 Explore her book: The Diamond Within – Book [https://www.thediamondwithin.co.uk/book] 💎 Transformational Programs: Online Offerings [https://www.thediamondwithin.co.uk/online-programs]

episode Zach Leary: Your Extraordinary Mind artwork

Zach Leary: Your Extraordinary Mind

This week on Conscious Physician Medicine + Psychedelics, we’re joined by writer, podcaster, and psychedelic guide Zach Leary—a seeker, teacher, and bridge between eras of psychedelic exploration. For over three decades, Zach has been immersed in the evolving story of psychedelics, bearing witness to both the historic countercultural wave and today’s psychedelic renaissance. With roots in digital innovation and a soul shaped by Ram Dass and Bhakti Yoga, Zach brings a rare blend of ancient wisdom, personal devotion, and practical guidance to the modern psychedelic space. As an integration coach, session facilitator, and educator, Zach has supported hundreds on their journeys of healing, transformation, and spiritual inquiry. His approach weaves together harm reduction, historical insight, internal family systems, and contemplative practice—offering both safety and depth to the psychedelic experience. In this conversation, we explore: * The legacy of Ram Dass and the continuing ripple of his teachings * What it means to facilitate with integrity and reverence * The role of psychedelics in modern healing, mysticism, and awakening * Zach’s personal path—from marketing exec to kirtan-singing Deadhead to soon-to-be author Zach's upcoming Psychedelics Studies Intensive launches July 2, 2025. Learn more and enroll at: zachleary.net [https://www.zachleary.net/] 📚 Your Extraordinary Mind: Psychedelics in the 21st Century and How to Use Them was published with SoundsTrue in early 2025.

episode Julian Bermudez: Inquiry as Intervention - Trauma, Patterning, and Psychedelic Insight artwork

Julian Bermudez: Inquiry as Intervention - Trauma, Patterning, and Psychedelic Insight

Welcome to a gorgeous episode featuring the radiant Julian Bermudez—a guide, facilitator, and trained therapist whose practice is devoted to helping individuals reconnect with their deepest selves—their psyche, emotions, and innate wisdom—often through trauma-informed coaching, and occasionally through the careful inclusion of psychedelics. His work is grounded in the belief that healing is not only possible, but inherent in all of us.In this episode, we explore: * The psychedelic experience as a gateway to deep self-connection * Trauma not as what happened to us, but how we responded to it * The power of inquiry: What are our patterns? Where did they come from? What purpose do they serve? * The crucial difference between influence and interference in psychedelic facilitation * How radical self-trust, not blind trust in a facilitator, is the foundation of true healing * The importance of aligning our lives with our core values Julian shares what it means to hold space with integrity and clarity, taking full responsibility for the energy he brings into the room while guiding others to reclaim their inner authority.We also reflect on the story of Dr. Lida Fatemi, who grew up in war-torn Iran, and how love, care, and radical self-awareness transformed what could have been an overwhelming trauma into a regulated and joyful way of being.This conversation inspires bravery, self-trust, and respect for the human condition.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
