She expertly weaves her rich life experiences into every page, crafting a story that feels as profound as it is suspenseful.Set in the idyllic yet enigmatic Bliss Creek, Bliss Creek explores the life of Elizabeth, a young woman who awakens with no memory of her past. Should she embrace this chance to reinvent herself or delve into the unsettling truths hidden within her lost identity? Through her struggle, Amber invites readers to ponder some of life’s deepest questions: What defines us? Are we the sum of our past, or can we truly begin anew?Amber’s ability to combine her keen analytical skills from her legal background with her profound understanding of human relationships makes her storytelling stand out.

Her debut novel is just the beginning, as Bliss Creek sets the stage for a series of stories that promise to expand this enthralling world.Why This Conversation Matters:Amber’s journey resonates with anyone navigating reinvention or seeking meaning in uncertain times. Her novel raises profound questions about identity, the power of self-discovery, and the narratives we construct to define ourselves.Join me in welcoming Amber Willingham to the show as we explore the heart of Bliss Creek, dive into the art of storytelling, and uncover what it means to create a life from a blank slate. Let’s get ready for an inspiring conversation that’s bound to linger long after it’s over.The Why Behind the Story 1. Bliss Creek centers on a protagonist stripped of her past, free to reinvent herself or search for what was lost. How much of this mirrors your own life journey of transitioning from law and parenting to storytelling? 2. Do you see Elizabeth’s journey as a metaphor for the human condition—are we all, in a way, waking up each day with a blank slate to redefine who we are? 3. What compelled you to explore the themes of memory, identity, and reinvention in a world grappling with uncertainty? 4. In creating the idyllic yet eerie Bliss Creek, were you seeking to critique our own “safe zones” or utopian ideals, and how they often conceal the truths we fear to face?Amber’s Identity and Process 5. Plato’s allegory of the cave speaks to the challenge of confronting harsh truths after living in comforting illusions. Have you faced your own “cave” moment—a time when you had to leave behind the familiar to embrace something more authentic? 6. How do your experiences as an attorney and a mother shape your view of storytelling as a means to uncover truths and challenge perspectives? 7. Writers often leave pieces of themselves in their characters. How much of Amber Willingham exists in Elizabeth, and how much did you invent as an exploration of someone entirely different? 8. Do you view storytelling as an act of defiance—a way to expose hidden realities and challenge societal narratives, as philosophers and revolutionaries have done throughout history?The Philosophy and Psychology of Bliss Creek 9. Elizabeth wrestles with the question of whether to reinvent herself or rediscover her past. Do you think we’re shaped more by the stories we tell ourselves or the ones we uncover about who we’ve been? 10. How do you see the role of memory in forming identity? Are we truly defined by our past, or can we become someone entirely new? 11. The “nagging feeling that something isn’t right” resonates deeply. Do you think that disquiet is universal—a signal that we’re not living authentically—and how can we learn to listen to it? 12. Bliss Creek as a setting feels both utopian and dystopian. Do you think our modern lives mirror this duality—safe but stifling, comfortable but unfulfilled?Amber’s Journey and Insights 13. You’ve said people have three careers in their lifetime. How has each of your careers shaped the way you see the world and inspired your storytelling? 14. Was there a pivotal moment in your life when you realized you needed to leave behind the structured world of law to embrace the unknown of creative writing? 15. Your protagonist faces a profound choice: embrace ...

    🎙️🎙️🎙️Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to introduce our esteemed guest for today, Sebastián Marincolo, a true Renaissance soul whose journey through the realms of philosophy, linguistics, and the intricacies of the mind has illuminated new paths of understanding.

    Dr. Sebastian Schulz, as he’s academically known, earned his magna cum laude Ph.D. through a critical analysis of neurophilosophical theories of consciousness. Mentored by luminaries such as William Lycan and Simon Blackburn, his academic lineage reads like a who’s who of influential philosophers.

    What sets Sebastián apart is his unparalleled exploration of the cannabis high, spanning over 25 years. As a researcher, he delves into the potential of cannabis as an altered state of consciousness, and as a philosopher, he weaves together the threads of personal experience and scholarly insight.

    Sebastián’s journey is not just confined to the ivory towers of academia; he has ventured into the uncharted territories of photography, producing the limited-edition macro photo art series, “The Art of Cannabis.” Through his lens, he brings to life the visual poetry of his unconventional research.

    A published author, his latest work, “Elevated,” invites us to reconsider cannabis as a tool for mind enhancement. This groundbreaking book explores the vast spectrum of mental abilities that cannabis may influence, challenging preconceptions and igniting a dialogue on the intersection of consciousness and creativity.

    From being mentored by the late Harvard Assoc. Prof. Emer. Lester Grinspoon to taking on roles as Director of Communications and Marketing for one of the world’s largest cannabis producers, Sebastián’s journey has been marked by a courageous exploration of the uncharted.

    Today, as a freelance writer and communications consultant, Sebastián continues to shape the narrative around cannabis. His presence has graced international news outlets, TV shows, and podcasts, breaking through the strong taboo that often shrouds the topic of cannabis use.

    Join me in welcoming Sebastián Marincolo, a philosopher, photographer, and trailblazer in the fascinating terrain where consciousness, creativity, and cannabis converge.

    🎙️🎙️🎙️ Welcome to the show, where today’s guest will not only expand your mind but also guide it through the labyrinth of healthcare innovation, Jungian wisdom, and the transformative power of psychedelics.

    Jessica Tracy is a trailblazer in the realm of mental health advocacy and psychedelic integration. As the Founder and CEO of The Sage Collective, she’s on a mission to bring the extraordinary potential of psychedelic-assisted therapies and mindfulness practices into the very fabric of our healthcare system. Think of her as the bridge-builder between ancient wisdom and modern medicine—a Sherpa guiding us up the mountain of transformation, one insurance policy at a time.

    Jessica’s journey is as multifaceted as a kaleidoscope. With nearly 20 years of experience spanning group insurance, clinical genetics, health tech, and psychedelic therapies, she’s been the strategist behind innovative healthcare delivery models that make the inaccessible accessible. From underwriting and analytics to helping health systems build centers for psychedelic healing, she’s proving that even the healthcare industry’s shadow side can find its way to the light.

    Her work with the Ketamine Task Force and various clinical certifications in psychedelic therapies speaks volumes about her commitment to bringing these life-changing modalities to those who need them most. Jessica isn’t just advocating for change—she’s orchestrating it, weaving mindfulness and psychedelics into the fabric of insurance and healthcare.

    Fresh off a retreat and armed with her Jungian toolkit, Jessica is here to remind us that where there’s a shadow, there’s also potential for illumination. And if you’re wondering what lies beneath the surface of insurance and healthcare bureaucracy, don’t worry—Jessica’s already explored those depths and brought back a map.

    So, let’s dive into the psyche, the system, and the stunning potential of a world transformed by her work. Welcome, Jessica Tracy!
