Beyond The Pills with Kyle Brown: Redefining Health, Leadership, and Personal Responsibility What happens when we stop searching for quick fixes and start taking responsibility for our health, our leadership, and our lives? In this powerful episode of Beyond The Pills , we sit down with Kyle Brown for an honest, grounded conversation about what it truly means to heal, lead, and live with intention in a world obsessed with surface-level solutions. Kyle challenges the cultural fixation on pills, protocols, and external answers, and instead invites listeners into a deeper exploration of personal responsibility, self-awareness, and sustainable transformation. Throughout the episode, Kyle emphasizes that real change doesn’t come from doing more, it comes from becoming more. “You can’t outsource responsibility for your health and expect long-term results. At some point, ownership has to come back to you.” Together, we unpack how modern healthcare often treats symptoms while ignoring root causes and how that same pattern shows up in leadership, business, and life. Kyle shares why slowing down, listening to the body, and developing discernment are essential skills for anyone seeking longevity, clarity, and alignment. “Most people are trying to optimize systems they don’t actually understand—starting with their own body.” This conversation goes beyond physical health into the inner work required for lasting growth. Kyle speaks candidly about identity, discipline, and the importance of building awareness before chasing performance. “If you don’t understand yourself, no protocol in the world is going to save you.” Listeners will walk away with a renewed perspective on what it means to lead from the inside out—recognizing that healing, leadership, and purpose are deeply interconnected. Whether you’re a healthcare professional, leader, entrepreneur, or someone who knows there’s more to wellness than prescriptions and productivity hacks, this episode will challenge you to think differently and more deeply. This episode is for you if you’re ready to: Move beyond symptom-based solutions Reclaim ownership of your health and leadership Understand the connection between awareness, discipline, and transformation Lead with clarity instead of control Build a life rooted in responsibility, not dependency Because true healing and true leadership has always been beyond the pills .

Do you ever feel your mood dip as the days grow shorter? You’re not alone — millions experience Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) each year, often without realizing what’s behind it. In this episode of Beyond the Pills , we shed light on one of the most overlooked causes of seasonal mood changes — Vitamin D deficiency. I’m joined by our Chief Marketing Officer, Tara LaFon Gooch , who shares how a simple shift in her wellness routine helped her find joy and energy again during the darker months. Like many of us, Tara noticed that every fall her energy dropped, motivation faded, and anxiety crept in. When we ran her labs, the root cause became clear — her Vitamin D levels were critically low. Within weeks of supplementing consistently, she began to feel like herself again: “It was like the clouds lifted. My smile came back and it wasn’t forced anymore.” Vitamin D isn’t just a vitamin; it’s a hormone that regulates mood, sleep, and immune balance. Low levels can lead to depression, fatigue, and the winter blues — yet it’s one of the simplest things to restore. In this episode, we break down: The link between Vitamin D, serotonin, and seasonal mood shifts How to safely raise your levels (the D3 + K2 combo matters!) Simple daily habits to support sunlight, sleep, and emotional balance You’ll learn why mood issues often have metabolic roots and how aligning your biology can reignite your vitality. This is why Vitamin D3 will be featured in our new Wellness Made Simple Starter Kits. Each kit includes foundational supplements, at-home labs, and the Clean 14 reset to help you reduce inflammation, balance hormones, and reclaim your energy — even when the days grow dark. Because you don’t have to wait for spring to feel light again. Listen now to discover how restoring your Vitamin D can help you overcome seasonal fatigue, stabilize your mood, and live brighter — naturally. ☀️

The first symptom of heart disease is often sudden death — and that’s exactly why prevention has to start before symptoms ever appear. In this powerful episode of Beyond the Pills , we dive into one of the most essential yet overlooked nutrients for heart and brain health: Omega-3 fatty acids. I’m joined by our Chief Marketing Officer, Tara LaFon Gooch , who shares how addressing a simple Omega-3 deficiency helped her reclaim energy, focus, and vitality. What started as a conversation about burnout and brain fog turned into a revelation about inflammation, cellular health, and the deep connection between the heart and the mind. “Your brain is made of fat. Feed it well, and it will serve you well.” We explore the science behind how Omega-3s protect your heart rhythm, lower inflammation, and reduce the risk of sudden cardiac death by up to 90% and why the American diet is lacking in Omega 3s and how to get it back in balance. This is exactly why Omega-3s are included in our Wellness Made Simple Starter Kits , alongside foundational supplements, lab testing, and guided lifestyle tools that make prevention easy and personal. Because the goal isn’t to manage disease — it’s to stay well before disease ever starts. Watch now to learn how to protect your heart, nourish your brain, and live Beyond the Pills.

What if the foods you eat every day are quietly inflaming your body, draining your energy, and sabotaging your long-term health? In today’s eye-opening episode, we sit down with James White, CEO of KBMO Diagnostics , the leader behind the revolutionary FIT Test , to expose the silent killers hiding in your kitchen. James opens with a simple but startling truth: “Most people think it’s normal to feel crappy. But inflammation is not normal.” Food sensitivities don’t always scream, they whisper. They show up as headaches, joint pain, bloating, skin issues, and fatigue that people often ignore or normalize. As James explains: “Food sensitivities are silent killers. People walk around with symptoms for 10–20 years.” In this conversation, he breaks down: The real impact of “silent inflammation” Why digestive symptoms are only the beginning The science behind the FIT Test What leaky gut actually is and why it matters How personalized diagnostics uncover what guesswork never will You’ll learn why so many people suffer for years without answers—and how simple testing can finally reveal the hidden root causes. Imagine waking up with more clarity, more energy, and fewer symptoms—simply because you finally identified what’s been fueling inflammation all along. This episode empowers you to: Take ownership of your health Challenge what you’ve been told is “normal” Understand the deeper story your body is telling Make small changes that lead to massive transformation As we share on the show: “The body is always speaking. The question is—are we listening?” This conversation is your invitation to start listening. When you’re ready to understand your inflammation, heal your gut, and reclaim your vitality, explore the powerful insights behind the FIT Test. 👉 Subscribe to Beyond The Pills on Apple Podcasts & Spotify 👉 Share this episode with someone who needs answers 👉 Follow for more holistic, root-cause-focused conversations

What if true healing didn’t come from another prescription… but from restoring what your body’s been missing all along? In this episode of Beyond the Pills , I share a powerful real-life story from our very own Chief Marketing Officer, Tara LaFon Gooch — a story that reminds us healing doesn’t have to be complicated to be life-changing. A few weeks ago, Tara reached out and asked for my advice about anxiety. We talked about natural ways to support her nervous system and I suggested something simple: Magnesium Glycinate. Just a few short weeks later, Tara turned to her husband and said: “I want to go on a vacation… so I can actually enjoy it.” That single sentence said it all. Because sometimes the real victory isn’t found in doing more, it’s found in finally feeling peace. Magnesium glycinate is one of the most powerful yet overlooked tools for mental and physical balance. It calms the nervous system, supports better sleep, reduces anxiety, and helps your body adapt to stress — naturally. “You don’t have to wait to feel better. Small changes create big transformations.” It’s stories like Tara’s that inspire the mission behind our work — bridging science, simplicity, and soul. This is exactly why Magnesium Glycinate will be included in my soon-to-be-released Wellness Made Simple Starter Kits. Each kit is designed to help you restore balance from the inside out with foundational supplements, gut support, easy lab testing, and a guided 14-day reset program that helps you take back your wellness one simple step at a time. Because wellness shouldn’t be complicated. It should be simple, sustainable, and personal. Tune in now to hear Tara’s story and discover how one small step toward balance can lead to a life of peace, purpose, and possibility.

What if everything you’ve been chasing—success, performance, validation—was never the point? In this week’s episode of Beyond the Pills , we sit down with PJ Whitner , better known as PJ With Love —a creator, entrepreneur, and modern mystic redefining what it means to live fully awake. Once a nationally ranked tennis player and founder of a multimillion-dollar wellness brand, PJ mastered the outer game of achievement. But behind the wins, his nervous system was unraveling. Burnout didn’t destroy him—it initiated him. What followed was a profound shift from doing more to being more , from the pursuit of performance to the practice of presence. “Burnout isn’t failure—it’s the body’s invitation to remember who you really are.” – PJ With Love In this conversation, PJ opens up about his collapse and awakening, sharing how that breaking point revealed the deeper intelligence of the heart. Through fasting, breathwork, and meditation, he began rebuilding his life from the inside out—learning to lead, create, and love from coherence rather than chaos. We explore: The myth of high performance —why chasing optimization can separate you from your essence. The power of coherence —how aligning your mind, body, and spirit creates effortless flow. Nervous-system mastery —why calm isn’t withdrawal; it’s control, clarity, and creative power. Love as a strategy —what happens when devotion replaces discipline and presence becomes your edge. PJ’s wisdom bridges science and spirituality, grounding ancient practices in modern reality. Whether you’re a CEO, creator, or someone seeking peace in the noise, his message lands with calm conviction: performance without presence is just pressure. “You can’t think your way into peace—you have to feel your way there.” – PJ With Love Throughout this episode, PJ and host Josh Rimany , Pharmacist-turned-healer and founder of the Beyond the Pills movement, explore how true wellness isn’t another supplement or protocol—it’s the restoration of wholeness. They talk about nervous-system regulation as a form of leadership, and how slowing down can actually accelerate impact. PJ’s journey reminds us that every breakdown carries a sacred blueprint for breakthrough. His story isn’t about rejecting ambition—it’s about redeeming it through awareness. When you operate from love rather than fear, you don’t lose your edge—you refine it. “Presence is the new performance. The calmer you are, the clearer you see, the faster you grow.” – PJ With Love Stay tuned until the end as PJ introduces With Love , his upcoming movement dedicated to coherence and creative awakening. You’ll also hear about: The Return — a 7-day inner-practice immersion. Wingsday — his weekly YouTube ritual of presence and integration. Full-Moon Fasting Ascension — a monthly reset to restore body and spirit. If you’ve ever felt stuck in overdrive or disconnected from your own inner compass, this episode is your permission slip to pause—to breathe—to come home.

Pain, illness, grief; these are the things many of us try to avoid. But what if they are the gatekeepers to something more real, more alive, more whole? Meet Alix Kirshner , an Integration Coach and Certified Psychedelic Guide whose intended path in traditional therapy was forever reoriented by a cancer diagnosis. That diagnosis didn’t just challenge her physical health; it shattered her beliefs about pain, purpose, and what healing really means. From that breaking, Alix discovered a new way of being—a holistic journey that weaves together mind, body, spirit, and the profound intelligence of healing. After earning a BA in Social Psychology at UMass Boston, Alix’s life took a radical turn. The cancer came, as did the unraveling of old narratives. As she faced her own mortality, she asked difficult questions about suffering, meaning, and transformation. In the aftermath of her recovery, she explored psychedelic experiences—not as escapism, but as catalysts for deep integration. In Colorado, she earned certification as a Psychedelic Guide through the Center for Medicinal Mindfulness in Boulder, grounding her work in safety, compassion, and real tools for transformation. Today, Alix works at the intersection of science, spirituality, and compassion. She coaches clients at Mindbloom , particularly in integrating ketamine sessions, and in her private practice, Higher Healing , she guides journeys with medicines such as cannabis or psilocybin. She also supports those navigating grief—“grief” in all its forms: loss, transitions, unrealized dreams and helps people alchemize it into resilience, self-understanding, and purpose. In this episode, listeners will gain access to: Real stories of how psychedelic integration can shift one’s relationship to pain; Rituals, practices, and frameworks that transform suffering into insight; The ways grief can become not just something we endure, but something that expands our capacity to love, to create, to be present. You’ll hear about the importance of integration , a concept that’s central to psychedelic therapy. A recent analysis found that the literature on psychedelic integration spans more than 1,000 clinical papers covering some 40,000 patients , and shows “large” to “very large” effect sizes in outcomes when integration is part of the protocol. Frontiers You’ll also learn about brain changes revealed in research: for example, psilocybin therapy has been shown to produce rapid, sustained antidepressant effects correlated with increases in global brain network integration , changes not observed with traditional antidepressants like escitalopram. Nature Alix makes it clear: meeting your pain with curiosity and compassion doesn’t minimize your suffering but it transforms it. As one healing quote puts it, “The wound is where the light enters you.” — Rumi. Mindfulness Exercises And from the world of psychedelic therapy: recent clinical trials show that therapy assisted by MDMA, psilocybin, ketamine, etc., is consistently revealing those shifts in anxiety, PTSD, depression symptoms—often when prior treatments have failed. American Psychological Association+1 If you’re feeling stuck with your pain, grief, or questions of purpose, this episode is for you. Tune in to be held, to be challenged, to be inspired. Let Alix’s story show you what’s possible when pain is treated not as something to escape, but as something to learn from, to integrate, to alchemize into something beautiful. After listening: Reflect on what grief or pain you’ve been resisting: what might happen if you sat with it instead of pushing it away? Share this episode with someone who might need the permission to feel, to heal, to transform. Leave a review—help us expand the conversation; many people need to hear this message. Key Insight We all have the power to alchemize our pain —turning it into purpose, meaning, wisdom. Pain isn’t the opposite of love; it’s part of the same spectrum. When we meet it with compassion, we find transformation not in spite of our suffering, but because of it.

“Healing isn’t something we wait for from the outside. It’s something we activate from within.” 100 episodes. 100 stories of transformation. One shared mission—to help you go beyond the pills. On this episode, Josh Rimany , the Modern-Day Medicine Man , marks this milestone moment, he welcomes a guest whose life’s work embodies everything this show stands for: Dr. Fabrizio Mancini , an internationally recognized health and lifestyle expert, chiropractor, bestselling author, and frequent guest on Dr. Phil , CNN , and Fox News. Dr. Fab has spent more than thirty years showing millions that the greatest pharmacy is the one inside each of us. His message? You are the healer you’ve been waiting for. This 100th-episode celebration goes far beyond reflection. It’s a re-awakening—a reminder that medicine’s future is personal, spiritual, and purpose-driven. Rediscovering the Power Within “Your body was created to heal. Every cell is programmed for life, not disease.” Dr. Fab begins by dismantling one of the greatest myths of modern healthcare: that healing must come from a pill, a doctor, or a procedure. He invites listeners to reclaim their agency—to see the body as a divinely intelligent system capable of regeneration when we remove interference and reconnect with purpose. He shares a moment from his own awakening: “I realized that when people shifted from asking ‘What’s wrong with me?’ to ‘What’s my body trying to tell me?’ —that’s when healing began.” The conversation with Josh dives deep into the intersection of ancient wisdom and modern science , from chiropractic philosophy to quantum healing, and the role of belief, gratitude, and community in reversing chronic disease. Together, they unpack how the mind, body, and spirit communicate—and why aligning all three creates lasting transformation. “Healing is not an event; it’s a journey of remembrance—remembering who we are before the world told us otherwise.” Living as Your Own Best Doctor This episode isn’t just about health. It’s about identity. As Dr. Fab says, “When you take ownership of your health, you take ownership of your life.” Listeners will find themselves nodding as he and Josh explore what it means to move from dependence to empowerment , from symptom management to soul alignment . They challenge the old paradigm of fear-based medicine and offer a vision where love, service, and self-trust become the most potent healing modalities. Dr. Fab shares personal stories of patients who reversed chronic illness not through miracle drugs, but through mindset, forgiveness, and purpose. He explains how gratitude and service rewire the nervous system for healing, and why emotional energy is often the missing link in wellness. “Every emotion is chemistry. When you live in fear, you create toxicity. When you live in gratitude, you create life.” He reminds us that true wellness isn’t about avoiding sickness—it’s about cultivating wholeness . “The goal isn’t to live forever. The goal is to live fully—awake, aligned, and aware.” For Josh, this milestone conversation feels like destiny. Both he and Dr. Fab share the conviction that healing is not linear—it’s layered, spiritual, and deeply personal. Their synergy is palpable as they trade insights about energy medicine, consciousness, and purpose-driven health. Listeners will feel inspired to: Reclaim control over their healing narrative. Challenge the “pill for every problem” mentality. Remember that faith, mindset, and community are medicine. And they’ll walk away with the realization that the greatest transformation starts not in the pharmacy—but in the mirror. Your Invitation to Go Beyond “Don’t wait for a diagnosis to start living. Start healing now.” As this landmark episode closes, Josh offers a heartfelt reflection on what Beyond The Pills has become: a global movement of healers, seekers, and believers in the body’s divine intelligence. 100 episodes of stories that prove healing is not a destination, but a way of being. Dr. Fab leaves listeners with one final message: “You are designed for health. You are built for purpose. And you are far more powerful than you’ve been led to believe.” This isn’t just an interview—it’s an activation. An invitation to turn inward, listen deeply, and trust that the same force that created the body also heals the body. Josh echoes that sentiment with gratitude for the community that has grown alongside the show: “We’ve built something sacred here—a space where science meets spirit, where pharmacists become healers, and where purpose becomes medicine.” And as Beyond The Pills steps into its next 100 episodes, the message is clear: Healing begins when we stop outsourcing our power and start embodying it. Key Takeaways from Dr. Fabrizio Mancini Healing is an inside-out process—your body is designed to restore itself. Gratitude and forgiveness are the most under-prescribed medicines. Chronic disease begins with chronic disconnection—from self, spirit, and truth. Love is the highest frequency of healing; fear is its greatest disruptor. You are your own best doctor—and your purpose is the prescription. 🧠 Memorable Quotes “Every symptom is a conversation your body is trying to have with you—stop silencing it.” “Gratitude changes chemistry faster than any supplement.” “If you align your energy with your purpose, the body follows.” “Healing is the ultimate act of self-love.” “When we go beyond the pills, we don’t just treat—we transform.” ✨ Final Reflection Episode #100 isn’t just a celebration—it’s a spiritual marker. It’s proof that conversations like these are the new medicine: grounded in science, elevated by spirit, and powered by purpose. Beyond The Pills continues to remind us that the most profound transformations happen when we awaken to the healer within. So take a deep breath, press play, and let this milestone episode reconnect you with the truth that has always been inside you. Because as Dr. Fab says: “The greatest miracle you will ever witness is the one that happens inside you.” 🎧 Listen Now Join host Josh Rimany and guest Dr. Fabrizio Mancini for a milestone conversation that redefines what it means to heal, grow, and live with purpose. 📲 Subscribe to Beyond The Pills on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or your favorite platform—and leave a review sharing your biggest takeaway from Episode #100!

Money Meets Soul: Hannah Chapman on Healing Your Finances and Your Future What if your relationship with money wasn’t just about spreadsheets, investments, and retirement accounts but also about healing your inner child, rewriting old stories, and aligning with your soul’s true design? In this episode of Beyond the Pills , host Josh Rimini sits down with Hannah Chapman, a powerhouse financial strategist who is rewriting the rules of wealth. As a Certified Financial Planner, Accredited Portfolio Management Advisor, and Chartered Retirement Planning Counselor, Hannah brings nearly two decades of experience to the table. But what makes her truly unique and the reason you’ll want to lean into this conversation—is her ability to blend practical financial wisdom with deep spiritual insights like Human Design, Gene Keys, and inner child healing. From the opening moments, you’ll realize this isn’t just another episode about money management. Hannah invites you to look beyond the numbers and into the beliefs, fears, and subconscious stories that shape your financial reality. Hannah’s story is as remarkable as her work. After years in the traditional financial sector, she realized something was missing: the soul. She witnessed clients who were “successful on paper” but emotionally burdened, spiritually unfulfilled, or energetically blocked from experiencing true prosperity. Instead of ignoring those gaps, Hannah leaned in. She began integrating holistic frameworks that help her clients uncover the hidden patterns keeping them from expansion; not only in their bank accounts, but in their lives. As Hannah shares in the episode: “Money isn’t just about dollars, it’s about energy. If we don’t heal the stories we carry from childhood, we’ll keep recreating the same patterns, no matter how much we earn.” This revelation sets the stage for a conversation that goes far deeper than wealth planning. Together, Josh and Hannah explore what happens when you align financial strategy with personal healing, spiritual growth, and authentic leadership. The heart of this episode lies in Hannah’s ability to connect the dots between personal transformation and financial freedom. You’ll hear about: Human Design & Gene Keys in Finance – Why understanding your energetic blueprint can change the way you approach money, decision-making, and even business growth. Inner Child Healing – How old stories around scarcity, safety, and self-worth show up in your adult financial life—and what you can do to rewrite them. Expansive CEO Mindset – Why Hannah founded her company, Expansive CEO, to help entrepreneurs lead with both strategy and soul. In one of the most powerful moments, Hannah reflects: “The things we hide from in our money are the very things that need our attention most. When you finally face them, that’s when real freedom begins.” This episode doesn’t shy away from the tough stuff like fear of failure, shame around debt, or the anxiety that comes with success. Instead, Hannah and Josh open the door to new possibilities, reminding us that financial health is inseparable from emotional and spiritual well-being. And here’s where it gets really exciting: Hannah shares practical strategies you can apply today. Whether it’s re-evaluating your investments, noticing how your body reacts to financial decisions, or creating new affirmations for abundance, you’ll walk away with tools that bridge the gap between strategy and spirit. As Hannah beautifully puts it: “When you bring the practical and the profound together, you stop living in survival mode and start living in expansion.” This episode is for anyone who has ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected in their relationship with money. If you’ve been craving a new perspective, one that honors both your financial goals and your soul’s calling; this conversation with Hannah Chapman is your invitation. 👉 Listen now to learn how to heal your relationship with money, align with your soul’s design, and step into true prosperity.

What if the disconnection, addiction, and grief so many of us struggle with aren’t just personal struggles, but signs of something deeper—what Kenn Day calls the “invisible world” ? In this episode of Beyond the Pills , host Josh Rimany, pharmacist turned healer, sits down with Kenn Day, author of Post-Tribal Shamanism , to explore how ancient wisdom can meet modern life in transformative ways. Kenn has spent over thirty years studying and practicing shamanism. His journey has led him to craft a unique path— post-tribal shamanism —that thrives outside the confines of traditional tribal frameworks while remaining rooted in reverence, ritual, and the soul’s calling. From Cincinnati, where he has run a full-time shamanic practice since 1989, Ken has guided countless individuals to heal soul hunger, restore connection, and rediscover the living spirit in all things. Early in the conversation, Kenn reminds us that shamanism isn’t something you choose—it chooses you: “The nature of shamanism is that we are called by spirit. And that’s something that happens before we’re born.” This idea reframes healing as more than self-help—it’s a remembrance of something far older, a reawakening to the soul’s true path. For Kenn, shamanism isn’t only for those who feel “called” to be shamans. It’s for anyone seeking to reconnect with a deeper sense of reality: “If you have any interest in expanding your sense of reality, in connecting with the myriad spirits that surround you, and in having a positive, supportive relationship with the world around you—these are all good reasons.” Kenn emphasizes that animism—the recognition that everything, from a tree to your morning coffee cup, is alive and imbued with spirit—isn’t superstition. It’s a way of seeing the world that restores meaning, connection, and hope in a culture often starved of soul. Listeners will discover how post-tribal shamanism offers practical tools for today’s challenges: healing from disconnection, finding wholeness in grief, and even restoring integrity in business and leadership. As Ken explains, his work isn’t about escaping the modern world but transforming it: “My work is not about returning to the past, but evolving shamanic practice through our post-tribal lives.” This approach makes shamanic wisdom accessible—not as a relic of history, but as a living, breathing practice for anyone willing to listen, engage, and be transformed. Throughout the episode, Josh and Ken dive into powerful stories of spirit encounters, the surprising ways shamanism can emerge in everyday life, and how reconnecting with the invisible world can heal not only individuals but families, communities, and organizations. If you’ve ever felt the gnawing of soul hunger, or sensed there’s more to life than what meets the eye, this conversation will meet you where you are. It will invite you into a deeper way of living; one rooted in spirit, authenticity, and courage. Tune in to Beyond the Pills and join host Josh Rimany as he and Kenn Day explore post-tribal shamanism, the healing of invisible wounds, and the restoration of soul connection in our modern world . 👉 Subscribe now to never miss an episode, and share this conversation with someone ready to remember the wisdom of spirit in their own journey.

What if death was not something to fear, but a sacred passage we could prepare for with dignity, compassion, and even healing? On this episode of Beyond the Pills , we welcome Professor Kathryn Tucker, one of the nation’s most influential voices at the intersection of law, medicine, and consciousness. Together, they unravel a conversation that challenges how we view mortality, suffering, and the future of psychedelic-assisted therapy. Kathryn Tucker is a nationally recognized legal advocate, educator, and thought leader who has spent decades pioneering legal and ethical reform in palliative care and end-of-life options. She has led groundbreaking cases—including the first federal lawsuit under the Right to Try Act—championing cancer patients’ access to psilocybin-assisted therapy. She currently teaches one of the first law school seminars on psychedelic law and has been instrumental in shaping Oregon’s approach to psilocybin legislation. Her work asks the tough questions: Why do we treat dying as a medical failure instead of a natural passage? What role can psychedelics, like psilocybin, play in relieving existential distress at the end of life? And how can law, ethics, and spirituality come together to ensure that access to healing is a human right, not a privilege? This episode is both provocative and profoundly moving. Kathryn shares stories from the front lines of advocacy, lessons from her yoga and consciousness practices, and her unwavering belief that how we support people at the end of life reveals who we are as a society. Here are three powerful quotes from Kathryn that will stay with you long after the episode ends: “Dying is not a medical failure—it’s a universal passage. How we support that passage defines our humanity.” “Psychedelics are not about escaping reality—they are about meeting reality more fully, even at the end of life.” “Access to healing should never depend on privilege. It’s a basic human right, especially in our final chapter.” Through Kathryn’s lens, death is not the end—it is an invitation to deeper connection, healing, and presence. And the legal structures we build today will determine whether future generations can step into that invitation with dignity and support. If you’re ready to expand your understanding of healing, mortality, and what it means to live and die well, this episode is for you. Tune in now to Beyond the Pills for a conversation that weaves law, medicine, and spirit into a new vision for end-of-life care. Learn more about Kathryn L.

Long‑term well‑being : Research involving indigenous Shipibo ceremonies in the Peruvian Amazon found that these experiences were linked to lasting enhancements in psychological well‑being and quality of life, with a measurable correlation between “decentering” and emotional improvement (r = 0.57; p < 0.01) Frontiers+1 . Mind‑expanding reconnections : Ayahuasca retreat participation has also been associated with increased “nature‑relatedness,” helping participants feel a deeper bond with the natural world Vogue+9chacruna.net+9SAGE Journals+9 .

Leaving the System, Not the Mission: Dr. Susan Baumgaertel on Healing After Medicine What if the very system you gave your life to—decades of dedication, care, and clinical excellence—became the very thing that broke your spirit? For Dr. Susan Baumgaertel, that question wasn’t theoretical. It was personal. After more than 25 years in internal medicine, Dr. B realized the cost of staying silent in a system that was no longer aligned with healing.

She built MenopauseMenu.com , a hub of nourishing support for women navigating the changes of midlife. She authored The Menopause Menu , a heartfelt guide that reimagines care as connection. And through it all, she reclaimed the creative , compassionate , healer within. This episode is not just about medicine—it’s about what it means to come home to yourself. Dr. B shares practical wisdom for anyone feeling stuck or stretched thin: why sleep is sacred, how to find joy in daily rituals like walking, and the power of remembering that “no” is a full sentence. You’ll hear her reflect on burnout, moral injury, and the liberating clarity that comes when you decide to recalibrate your inner compass. Whether you’re a clinician on the edge of change or a patient desperate to be seen and heard, Dr. B’s message is universal: You’re not broken. The system is. And you have options.
