  • PART 1: The Importance of Intentional Integration When Healing with Psychedelics: with Past Buena Vida Guest, Paige Grant
    Sep 13 2023

    We are back with our second season of "What a Trip" podcast! 

     

    Our new host Shandi Littlefield, works as the Operations Director here at The Buena Vida Psilocybin Retreats. Over the next several weeks, she will be sitting down with guests from all walks of life who have taken the deep dives into using plant medicine to aid in their healing journeys, stay connected, and continue on their roads to ultimate expansion. 

     

    Our first Season 2 guest Paige Grant, is a Buena Vida regular. Paige started by joining us on a retreat in December 2022, which organically sent her on a trajectory of a full exploration into healing with plant medicines such as psilocybin, bufo, ayahuasca and peyote. She has every intention of continuing to follow the call, pursuing facilitation opportunities, and being a huge part of the conversation around the healing properties of the medicine.

    We’re sitting down with Rohini Elyse, a fellow Fit for Service Member to discuss the TRIP of being an influencer in today's social media world. Rohini takes us to the vulnerable space of her inner world as we see the impact on her self-worth, how being “canceled” can be a moment of universe shaking freedom, and how one decision can change the trajectory of your whole life in just a matter of months. 

    In this episode:

    Who is Rohini, right now, in this moment? 

    How Rohini and Amanda crossed paths

    Rohini's 2-week silent master plant dieta & Ayahuasca journey in Peri

    The rise of exploring consciousness at a younger age 

    How social media has affected the idea of spiritual awareness throughout generations 

    Rohini on “getting canceled” 

    “You can’t only be just one” 

    Regaining oversight of where your validation comes from 

    Rohini’s journey with Plant Medicine and using her gifts to learn, watch and listen

    “Shaman” and “Healer” are not interchangeable

    What 2022 looks like for Rohini?
