About this listen

In this week’s episode, we go underground—literally—to explore the magical, mysterious world of mushrooms 🍄.
From the portobellos on your plate to the psychedelic fungi that spark spiritual awakening, mushrooms are nature’s ultimate teachers of connection, reciprocity, and regeneration.

We dive into the mycelial web—Earth’s natural internet—and uncover how it mirrors our own neural networks and the energetic pathways that link us all. You’ll learn about:

  • Functional mushrooms like Lion’s Mane, Reishi, Chaga, Cordyceps, and Turkey Tail—and how they support your brain, gut, and immunity
  • The spiritual symbolism of mushrooms across chakras and elements
  • Psilocybin’s role in neuroplasticity, emotional healing, and unity consciousness
  • How to integrate mushroom medicine (from lattes to microdosing) with intention

Plus, Bethany pulls a card reminding us that “we’re all part of the web that connects all life.” 🌎✨

Perfect for the curious soul who loves science, spirituality, and soulful conversation.

🎧 Tune in, sip your reishi latte, and remember: healing happens through connection—to self, to Earth, to each other.
