  • 102. Why Isn’t Everyone Tripping With Their Family? | Lauren Taus
    Dec 23 2025
    What if healing didn’t have to be solitary?What if family — messy, imperfect, deeply conditioned family — could actually be part of the medicine? In this episode of Why Isn’t Everyone Doing This?, I sit down with Lauren Tauss, psychedelic facilitator, teacher, and one of the clearest communicators I know in this space. Lauren has a rare ability to bring humor, rigor, compassion, and responsibility into conversations that are often either sensationalized or sanitized. We talk about why “life itself is psychedelic,” how healing is inherently relational, and what becomes possible when we stop treating transformation as something that happens in isolation. Lauren shares her own deeply personal journey — from anorexia and control to surrender, embodiment, and trust — and how psychedelic-assisted therapy helped rewire her relationship with her body, her family, and life itself. This conversation isn’t about glorifying substances or breaking taboos for shock value. It’s about maturity. Integration. And learning how to say hello to yourself — instead of checking out. If you’ve ever been curious, cautious, skeptical, or quietly fascinated by psychedelic healing… this episode will meet you with intelligence and heart. In this episode, we explore: • Why Lauren says “life is the biggest psychedelic” • The difference between using medicine to say hello vs. goodbye • How relational healing changes family systems • Why shame, addiction, and “drug” culture need a language upgrade • The connection between meditation, surrender, and psychedelic work • Healing body image, control, and fear at the root• What integration actually means (and why it matters more than the experience) Key Moments: 00:00:00 — Why isn’t everyone tripping with their family? 00:03:35 — “Life is the ceremony”: redefining what psychedelic really means 00:06:26 — Hello vs. goodbye: the two reasons people partner with substances 00:07:47 — Compassion over judgment in addiction and numbing 00:09:15 — Lauren’s first ayahuasca experience and healing anorexia 00:12:27 — “It’s time to retire your extra-small life” 00:14:41 — Body as gift: remembering the blessing of being alive 00:15:49 — Why meditation is surrender school (and prepares you for life) Where This Work Continues If this conversation stirred something in you, especially around integration, relationship, or embodiment, you may feel drawn to Level 3. Level 3 is where we focus on building the inner stability, nervous system resilience, and daily practices that allow deep experiences (psychedelic or otherwise) to actually change how you live.

  • 101. Why Isn’t Everyone Seeing the Sacred Geometry That Shapes Reality? with Robert Edward Grant
    Dec 16 2025
    This episode is a transmission. Recorded live with a studio audience as part of our pilgrimage preparation, this conversation with Robert Edward Grant is a distilled journey into the mathematics of consciousness, the intelligence encoded in sacred sites, and the way reality reshapes itself through collective coherence. Robert is a true polymath — mathematician, inventor, artist, and explorer of ancient technologies — whose work bridges geometry, music, consciousness, and the mystery traditions. In this conversation, he reveals how pyramids function as mirrors of human awareness, why math may be the original language of God, and how sacred structures were designed to activate future timelines. This isn’t about believing anything new.It’s about remembering what you already know. If you’ve ever felt activated by sacred sites, fascinated by ancient civilizations, or curious about how consciousness actually shapes reality — this episode will land like a remembering. In this episode, we explore: • Why pyramids are mirrors of consciousness, not monuments • How math, music, and geometry encode spiritual intelligence • The role of individuation in divine awareness • How collective coherence creates “Mandela cascades” • Why ancient civilizations were far more advanced than we’ve been taught • How sacred sites communicate across timelines • What it means to bring heaven to earth — literally Key Moments: 00:00:01 — The pyramid as a mirror of consciousness 00:01:06 — Individuation as the universe’s greatest value 00:02:21 — Why sacred sites activate you personally 00:03:36 — Can consciousness build structures through intention? 00:07:20 — Math as the language of God 00:11:08 — The musical notes hidden in pyramid geometry 00:12:53 — How Robert identified two previously unknown pyramids near Giza 00:15:04 — The 15th-century maps that revealed structures hiding in plain sight 00:26:02 — Collective coherence & shifting timelines 00:49:14 — Sacred sites as accelerators of remembrance About Robert Edward Grant Robert Edward Grant is a polymath, mathematician, artist, inventor, and consciousness researcher known for discovering new chambers in the Great Pyramid and identifying previously unknown pyramids on the Giza Plateau.

  • 100. Why isn’t everyone returning to ancient ritual? with Isis Indriya
    Dec 11 2025
    For our 100th episode, we’re bringing you a rare and deeply sacred conversation with ceremonialist, teacher, and ritual artist Isis Indriya — recorded live with the participants of our Egypt pilgrimage container. This wasn’t just an interview; it was a transmission. A remembering. A reorientation back to the technologies, rituals, and embodied wisdom that humans have used for millennia to become living temples. Isis is one of the most devoted students and teachers of Kemet, divination, and ancient ritual arts that I’ve ever known. Her command of lineage — and her humility within it — is breathtaking. In this conversation, she guides us into what it truly means to be in devotion, to walk as a sacred vessel, and to build an inner architecture strong enough to hold the frequencies we’re calling in. If you feel the pull toward Egypt, toward ancient remembrance, or toward rebuilding your own inner temple… this episode will speak directly to that place inside you. In this episode, we explore: · Why devotion is a technology, not a performance · How to build the inner architecture required for mystical work · The difference between ego-based spirituality and lineage-based service · Why ritual, prayer, and offering were central to ancient Egyptian life · How to listen for your assignment — and how to prepare your body for it · How to become a vessel strong enough to carry the frequency you’re seeking Key Moments: 00:00:00 — Opening the space & inviting Isis to pray us in 00:01:05 — What it means to hold wisdom with humility and lineage 00:04:30 — Devotion as a living technology 00:12:44 — Building the “inner temple” as preparation for any spiritual path 00:22:51 — Why ancient Egypt was designed as a multi-layered initiation path 00:41:10 — How to discern between ego desire and true spiritual assignment 00:57:32 — The role of ritual in strengthening the nervous system 01:10:48 — Listening to land, lineage, and your body’s knowing 01:32:20 — What it means to carry Egypt inside you ✨Feeling the call to pilgrimage?
