And that wasn't 72 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 1: the only catalyst. I was alsowithstanding a lot of professional 73 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 1: blows to the in the public eye, and it was 74 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 1: just heavy and it was at the height of like 75 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 1: pretty good rock and then one night stand and like 76 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: I had immense success, right, and I was like at 77 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: the top of the mountain as far as like who 78 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: I'm being named amongst the stages and the carpets and 79 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: the you know, the places that I've been invited and 80 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: all the things. Right, So it was like my dream 81 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: was absolutely like unfolding before my very eyes, but there 82 00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 1: were so many other things pulling me down, and so 83 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: it's a breakup. It was, you know, being forced to 84 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: do things I didn't want to do, like you know, 85 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: me having to stand proud and carpets and sometimes be 86 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: taunted by the interviewer or you know, if I'm at 87 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: radio or if I'm met you know, on a carpet 88 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,279 Speaker 1: or whatever, and just feeling like, oh my god, I'm 89 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 1: like I felt like public enemy number one. You know, 90 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: it felt like that for me, and I'm like, this 91 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:24,920 Speaker 1: is not how I saw it going. 92 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 2: And it's so funny because when you came in too, 93 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 2: that I was like, she's talked about it so much. 94 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 2: It's probably not something we'll go down, but it just 95 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,679 Speaker 2: feels like an elephant that it's like, is this because 96 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,279 Speaker 2: of this one moment? 97 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, it sounds so small, but like when you're the 98 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: person living it. It's really really you can't escape it. Yes, 99 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: I'm in the center of it. I'm the the epicenter 100 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 1: of I had to stand alone in it in something 101 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 1: that I didn't choose or didn't decide. 102 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 2: Just so I get the full thing I want to do. 103 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,160 Speaker 2: There was a there was a song you put out. 104 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,600 Speaker 2: You said you were covering up for people about this song, 105 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,280 Speaker 2: but it sparked. 106 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 3: Was it? Was it even a diss record? Was it 107 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 3: even that it was? 108 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 1: I guess so yeah, I mean that's what they called it, 109 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,479 Speaker 1: So I guess that's what it is. 110 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 2: Okay, So this moment happens, Yeah, you didn't feel good. 111 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:12,600 Speaker 2: Did you feel good about it or not? 112 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 3: No? 113 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:17,720 Speaker 1: No, no, you didn't feel good. Moment didn't write like 114 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:19,840 Speaker 1: the worst parts. I had to like patch it up. 115 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 1: I was literally threatened, not physically, but professionally threatened to 116 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 1: do it. And it's like I remember saying, I'm a 117 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 1: like I was an athlete. When I was coming into fame, 118 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 1: I was also coming off the court, so I was 119 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: I just remember arguing, like, I'm a finesse player. I 120 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: don't have to play dirty, I don't have to say 121 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: anything about anybody else.

I was on tour, we left tour, 196 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 1: we had a little break, and I was coming and 197 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: writing remix to the record. I'm thinking it was about guys. 198 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 1: I'm thinking I'm going to stay on subject, but like 199 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: write different verses. 200 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 2: Yeah. 201 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: Song is called turning me on, turning me off, So 202 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: that's what I was thinking. So I had pieces that 203 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 1: I wanted. I come in and I'm like, what is this. 204 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:28,199 Speaker 3: What? 205 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: So I guess it's just the ultimate thing of like 206 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 1: putting my voice on that song. Just I was in teared, 207 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 1: like just not doing it, just not doing it. I 208 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 1: think that was the only choice that I had, and 209 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 1: that was probably the biggest regret. 210 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 2: I just think that sometimes in our life, whether it 211 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 2: was your I mean, things happen, right, and then I 212 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 2: just think when you're inside of the world and there's 213 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,679 Speaker 2: so much energy around it. I just wonder what that 214 00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 2: did to you, like when you take time and then 215 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 2: go home. 216 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's my dream, like I had dreamt about that. 217 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 3: It does that still? 218 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 1: Yeah wow? 219 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, but what is that that? 220 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:16,199 Speaker 1: It's you you were leading me to remember, like how 221 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 1: it felt. And all I could think about was me 222 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 1: being a little girl with a karaoke machine and watching 223 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: like Star Search and Apollo and like, you know, seeing 224 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 1: people do their Grammy speeches and do all this stuff, 225 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: and and also like someone enjoying, like enjoying the people 226 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 1: that you have me talking about, you know what I mean, 227 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 1: being a fan of them. Thank you because thank you. Sorry, No, 228 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: it's okay. I didn't expect it. 229 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 3: I didn't know. I didn't. I didn't either. I just 230 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 3: feel like I feel like that's a moment. It's a moment. 231 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 2: And so to talk about everything else without pinnacle, that's 232 00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 2: what I mean, because it wasn't really my intention to 233 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 2: even talk about it today. But I don't know how 234 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 2: we talk about how you come out of that and 235 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 2: how it affects you in health, because. 236 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 3: It was a big thing for you. It wasn't a 237 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 3: it wasn't a did. 238 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: It never went away. Wow, And that's probably because I 239 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: never talked about it. I never got to I never 240 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 1: wanted to out anybody. I just I really so badly 241 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,080 Speaker 1: wanted it to disappear. I wanted it to go away, 242 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 1: and I thought I was kind of told like, if 243 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 1: you just don't say anything, like, it'll disappear. But it 244 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: never did. I wore a scarlet letter and in my heart, 245 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: in my like, I was like, this is not the 246 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: trajectory I saw my career on having to fight something 247 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 1: stupid that I didn't even choose for myself for this long. 248 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,959 Speaker 1: So it was just it was awful. It was awful. 249 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: I had nightmares like it was awful. And so that's 250 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 1: the other part of stepping away was just I was 251 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 1: depressed when I should have been the happiest. 252 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 3: Because you had just had so much success. 253 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I was still in this success. Yeah. 254 00:11:58,200 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 3: What is the depression rooted? 255 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 2: Is you feel feel that you let yourself down, You 256 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 2: feel like you let somebody up, like or was it 257 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,680 Speaker 2: just abuse, like people attacking you so much? 258 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 3: Like what was it all that? 259 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 1: All of that and probably more that you didn't mention that. Uh, yeah, 260 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 1: it's just all of it. I was so disappointed in 261 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 1: the people who I thought understood me, the people who 262 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 1: held my career in their hands. I thought they knew 263 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 1: who I was. I thought they saw and cared who 264 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 1: I am and the integrity that I have and had 265 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 1: respect for all that I had gone through to get 266 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:33,680 Speaker 1: to the point that I was in. 267 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 3: I thought that to any of the other parties involved 268 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 3: ever apologized to you, really. 269 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 1: No, I'm being no, No, you're still the bad guy. 270 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 1: I'm still I'm not the bad guy. But they just won't. 271 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 1: There is no level of I did get something that 272 00:12:56,160 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 1: I guess I accepted as an apology. One of the 273 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: guys involved told me something like, I shouldn't have forced 274 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 1: you to be like me. I shouldn't have forced you 275 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 1: to be like me.

Everyone 379 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: appreciated every artist for what they do and their uniqueness, 380 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:29,360 Speaker 1: and like you know, the design of things. I think 381 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 1: there was like media takeout and like that. There were 382 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 1: a couple really salacious things happening where you could find 383 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 1: like yeah, Windy and certain magazines and the grocery stores 384 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 1: at that time, like that was really it. 385 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:44,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, no, but not to the extent of not 386 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 3: single human has the opportunity to yeah yos. 387 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 1: Yes, not just a writer, yeah, just yeah, one publication 388 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 1: or whatever. Yeah, and fans like and it commenters and 389 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: you know.

And I was 392 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:13,160 Speaker 1: not as strong. Thicker skin now, much thicker skin, much 393 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 1: thicker skin. And I guess there's always something to be 394 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:20,120 Speaker 1: grateful for an age age. You'll do that too, Yeah, 395 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: and the time away learning who I am, understanding growing. 396 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:26,680 Speaker 2: But wait, so you're going through that time in your 397 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,640 Speaker 2: life and there's a break, the breakup is the same 398 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:29,120 Speaker 2: time in. 399 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:29,640 Speaker 3: Your life time. 400 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, eleven years too.

Everybody's onto their own stuff, everybody, 422 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 1: so they got to make their money. They still got 423 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 1: to you know, they're passionate people. They're gonna move to 424 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:42,439 Speaker 1: where the passion is and if I kind of, you know, 425 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 1: abandoned that ship, then they're going to find their way. 426 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 1: And it was really difficult. 427 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 2: Actually, so it's almost like so it's almost like you 428 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,479 Speaker 2: were forced to kind of like because one thing, when 429 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:04,120 Speaker 2: an artist is brand new and there's like potential, people come, 430 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 2: oh god, let's sign her, or we got a manager 431 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 2: everybody's like trying to get this because they see this 432 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 2: potential of this artist, who's who's blossoming into something from 433 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:17,719 Speaker 2: being a writer to now artist. But once you've been 434 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 2: out for a while and then you take a break, 435 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 2: it's probably harder to kick start the excitement again. 436 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:28,920 Speaker 1: Yeah right, yes for them, yes right, yes, which is tough. 437 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 1: I'm now I'm ready.

Let me let me preface 505 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 1: this by saying I had done like spiritual things, I'd 506 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 1: kind of really come into a closer relationship with God. 507 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 1: And there, you know, just I went on retreats and 508 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 1: I built a community of those who were kind of 509 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 1: like minded in that sense, you know, spirituality, and my 510 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:30,680 Speaker 1: tribe really appeared during that time. My tribe really stood 511 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 1: up and some I knew already somewhere new and it 512 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 1: was just like, Okay, the team is not professional team, 513 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 1: but carries carry the humans. Tribe was starting to appear 514 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 1: angels really. And then I met a doctor who assisted 515 00:25:52,520 --> 00:26:00,399 Speaker 1: me with shrooms, medicinal grade trooms psychedelics. I can say 516 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 1: without a doubt that I did like two macro doses. 517 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:09,200 Speaker 1: And I'm saying this responsibly because again it's doctor assisted, right, and. 518 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:11,439 Speaker 3: Also this is your experience. This is not what we 519 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:12,399 Speaker 3: were not promoting this. 520 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:17,480 Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, but I can say that. And I was 521 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:20,439 Speaker 1: already coming out. I was already pretty much out, but 522 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 1: I still would struggle with here and there, and that 523 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: doctor suggested that I just research, which I did because 524 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:30,120 Speaker 1: I was very scared of like. 525 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 3: Drugs, smoke weed or anything like that. 526 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:38,160 Speaker 1: Nah. I would do edibles occasionally, yeah, low dose, yeah probably, 527 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 1: I mean, and I would take if it if they 528 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 1: recommend a half, I'm really taking an eighth of the half, right, 529 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:51,640 Speaker 1: I'm easily affected by everything caffeine, Like I can't, I don't, 530 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 1: you know. So I know my my personnel, which is me, 531 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:58,679 Speaker 1: and so I was very very nervous. But then I 532 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:02,639 Speaker 1: learned that there are retreats all around the world for 533 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:10,440 Speaker 1: shrooms being used medicinally as healing modality. And like I say, 534 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 1: is it worked for me? It works? 535 00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 3: Okay, you're not gonna just say that. I need, I need, 536 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,919 Speaker 3: I need, I need some share. I need to understand 537 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:18,160 Speaker 3: what what do you say it worked? 538 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 2: Because I'm fascinated by this, by the way, and I've 539 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:23,280 Speaker 2: definitely read a lot about it. 540 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:26,440 Speaker 3: I call people who have had incredible experience, okay with it. 541 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 3: I know somebody who's dealing with severe grief and. 542 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:37,359 Speaker 2: She's she's she's gone down this road and it's given 543 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:38,439 Speaker 2: her some relief. 544 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,639 Speaker 3: And so I know it does work for some people. 545 00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 1: I know many as well. 546 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,679 Speaker 3: I have I have feed my own personal fears about it. 547 00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:48,919 Speaker 3: So that's why I'm so interested.

I thought it was fascinating. Okay, 567 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:39,480 Speaker 2: he said he did he went to a doctor and 568 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 2: he told me this. He's like, you know, you could 569 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,040 Speaker 2: see rage on a brain scan. I was like, well, 570 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 2: what do you mean. He said that he went to 571 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 2: the doctor and they could see it on his brain scan. 572 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 2: That the doctor showed him that this is where and 573 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 2: he lives with that rage all the time. So Mike 574 00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 2: Tyson was talking around life trying to manage that, and 575 00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:00,240 Speaker 2: he's found ways. He's got an amazing family and amazing white. 576 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 1: It was there before, it had to be there before boxing, 577 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 1: which is probably why he got into boxing. 578 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:05,240 Speaker 3: Oh no for sure, okay o, no, for sure. 579 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 2: He's got high levels of rage, and so I think 580 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 2: that that has helped him manage that's he's leaned into shrooms. 581 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:13,959 Speaker 1: Because he seems so like calm. 582 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 3: Now Adams probably aged probably so much mushrooms. Yeah, yeah, 583 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 3: and yeah whatever whatever, he's found a way for him. 584 00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 3: I will say, I know, I don't ayahuasca. 585 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 1: I don't think derives from mushrooms. 586 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:30,479 Speaker 3: I thought it was we need we need research. 587 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:32,200 Speaker 1: Okay, so yeah, I don't think so, I don't know, 588 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 1: but I haven't done those I want to. 589 00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 3: Okay, So wait, you just did regular rooms. 590 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:41,680 Speaker 2: I just did regular psychedelic but medicinal great rooms.

That's 601 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: it gave me, Like things are scary until you understand, 602 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: until you seek to understand that, right, They're only as 603 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 1: scary as you when you, I guess, aren't informed or 604 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 1: lack knowledge about it. 605 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,000 Speaker 3: Right. Okay, the more I learned, the more comfortable I was. 606 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,000 Speaker 3: I was like, oh, so, what did you learn? What 607 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:24,640 Speaker 3: did it tell you? 608 00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 1: Just it was talking about the retreats and how I 609 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 1: think it's eighty percent. I hope I can't remember. I 610 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 1: think I have it in my notes in my phone, right, 611 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:36,280 Speaker 1: I'm a note tacker because I know I don't retain 612 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:40,200 Speaker 1: things like numbers. But like eighty percent of people something 613 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 1: like that I have reported in these psychedelic retreats that 614 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:49,440 Speaker 1: it has completely cured their depression. And then there's another 615 00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 1: percent of people. I don't think it's the remaining twenty 616 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:56,600 Speaker 1: Maybe it was, but another chunk of people reported that 617 00:30:56,680 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 1: it severely minimized the depression their depression. 618 00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's just like you said, you did two sessions. 619 00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:07,360 Speaker 1: I did two sessions of you know, there's macro and micro, 620 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 1: so I did two macros macro dosis. Like, I don't 621 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 1: want to tell how much. I don't want to influence 622 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 1: anyone to like try it on their own or it 623 00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:19,520 Speaker 1: could do that street version or late version. Yeah, I 624 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 1: would not suggest that, So I'm trying to be responsible 625 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:24,680 Speaker 1: about what what I say about it. 626 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,240 Speaker 3: But what was your experience? Did you because they said 627 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 3: the walls melting. 628 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 1: Up, No, it's not even trippy. It's not your experience. 629 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 1: It was not trippy. My experience was not trippy like that. 630 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 1: But I did want to listen to music and I 631 00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 1: did want to be outside.

But I have never been 685 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 1: in a dark place for long or as dark since then. 686 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:33,799 Speaker 1: Like I can confidently say that cured my depression. Confidently 687 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,279 Speaker 1: I can say that. And the other work that I 688 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:39,719 Speaker 1: you know, therapy, I was definitely in therapy. I was 689 00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:42,840 Speaker 1: definitely doing my spiritual practices. I was definitely on retreats. 690 00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:45,279 Speaker 1: I was definitely building community you. 691 00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:47,319 Speaker 3: Were actively trying to get out of it. 692 00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, so it was one of the catalysts to curing 693 00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 1: my depression. I was an active participant in it, but 694 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:57,400 Speaker 1: but that was a major piece for sure. 695 00:34:57,600 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 3: What did you learn? 696 00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:01,640 Speaker 2: Because some people therapy comes up a out here and 697 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:03,920 Speaker 2: everybody has different experiences. But I always say it's like 698 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,200 Speaker 2: dating because some people, like I tried it, I didn't 699 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:07,480 Speaker 2: like it. I'm like, you try one. 700 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 3: That's like going on one day with one person and 701 00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:11,919 Speaker 3: being like, dating's whack. I don't even know. You don't know. 702 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:13,880 Speaker 3: You need to try other people exactly. 703 00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:14,880 Speaker 1: It is like dating. 704 00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:17,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's the wrong therapist. It is a waste of time. 705 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:21,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I have heard horror stories from people. 706 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:22,759 Speaker 3: But you find a good one. 707 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:26,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, it took me a couple two be a couple also, And. 708 00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 3: What do you think is a good one? 709 00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:29,160 Speaker 1: What do you think makes a good one? 710 00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:33,319 Speaker 3: Yeah? 711 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:42,120 Speaker 1: I think a good therapist coaxes you via their questioning 712 00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:52,320 Speaker 1: and they're listening, coaxes you towards having your own realizations. 713 00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:55,640 Speaker 1: I think a good one allows you to discover yourself 714 00:35:57,120 --> 00:36:00,000 Speaker 1: and become aware of yourself, kind of on your own, 715 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:04,319 Speaker 1: but with their guidance. I don't think that it is 716 00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:08,640 Speaker 1: wise for them to tell you certain things, but suggest 717 00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 1: and kind of you're just your guidelines for me to 718 00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 1: not look at this wrong or to not you know, 719 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:19,239 Speaker 1: you're helping me see what's true about life, about my childhood, 720 00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:25,000 Speaker 1: what's true and how I'm experiencing things and how I 721 00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:27,040 Speaker 1: may view it differently and how you know, You're just 722 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 1: you're to me a guide. Yeah, sure, I think that 723 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:30,839 Speaker 1: makes a good one. 724 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 3: What was your childhood like? Like what?

I was the youngest on the swim team, 742 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:23,880 Speaker 1: three years old making it across the pool, and I 743 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:27,200 Speaker 1: swam from three to about seventeen. Wow, I think you 744 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:33,000 Speaker 1: age out at eighteen in that league. But yeah, that 745 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:35,800 Speaker 1: was that was for that, yeah kind of yeah. That 746 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 1: his side of the family swam.

So like, yeah, 750 00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:53,839 Speaker 1: like you know, were you close sports and music was dead? 751 00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:55,880 Speaker 3: Were you close to them? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah. 752 00:37:56,040 --> 00:38:00,879 Speaker 2: I just like because I could understand me going through 753 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 2: something and my mom not knowing. And me and my 754 00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:04,319 Speaker 2: mom are close, but I can know I go through 755 00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:06,399 Speaker 2: something and she doesn't know. But when I think as 756 00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:08,560 Speaker 2: on the other side of that as a mother, and 757 00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:11,000 Speaker 2: to think, hmmm, one of my you know, like my 758 00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 2: kid could go through that for a couple of years 759 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:13,839 Speaker 2: and I wouldn't know. 760 00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:15,520 Speaker 1: That's notice very scary to me. 761 00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:17,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's very very scary. 762 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:20,920 Speaker 1: Well, when you become adult too, you can be close still, 763 00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:24,440 Speaker 1: but you do start to do things independently when you 764 00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:26,200 Speaker 1: are an adult, like you can have your own life, 765 00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 1: you have your own friendships, you're building, you're building your 766 00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:31,600 Speaker 1: own life. So I could hide it within that, yeah, 767 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:36,400 Speaker 1: if that makes sense. I hit it within. I guess 768 00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:41,719 Speaker 1: under the concept or the context that like, oh, I'm 769 00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:45,680 Speaker 1: just you know, I put things in the context that 770 00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:48,440 Speaker 1: was just like had nothing to do with her, you know. 771 00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:50,920 Speaker 1: So I would hide my depression in those realms and 772 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:52,600 Speaker 1: when we were around family, like I would try to 773 00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 1: you know, but I'm still so intrigued that she didn't 774 00:38:57,440 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 1: know anything. No, I don't know how we'd have to 775 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:03,080 Speaker 1: talk to her. 776 00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:04,680 Speaker 3: It might be really sing. 777 00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 2: Well, that goes to show you you just never know 778 00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:08,800 Speaker 2: what somebody is going. When somebody is going. 779 00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:12,160 Speaker 1: Can miss it. And my mom is quite attentive, is she? 780 00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 4: Yeah? 781 00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:13,240 Speaker 3: Yeah? 782 00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:16,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, But is she like a talker like that she is, 783 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 2: because some parents are not. They're not going to ask, like, 784 00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:19,759 Speaker 2: what's going on with you? 785 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:24,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, she would, and I would just lie, Yeah, you 786 00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:25,279 Speaker 1: would lie.

I don't know, in general? Where do you? Because 849 00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 3: we talk about redemption, we talked about like purpose. I 850 00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 3: just think in experiencing what you've experienced and even. 851 00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:53,359 Speaker 2: Just the depression part of that, And I don't know, 852 00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:57,400 Speaker 2: break up and it's just so so much sadness around that. 853 00:42:57,520 --> 00:42:59,560 Speaker 2: I'm sure there had to be some forgiveness. I don't know, 854 00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:03,000 Speaker 2: for yourself, for other people. Yeah, so I don't know 855 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:06,160 Speaker 2: for myself. For yourself, you have to forgive yourself? 856 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:09,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and I do? I did? I do? 857 00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:10,120 Speaker 3: You do? 858 00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:11,360 Speaker 1: I do? 859 00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:14,439 Speaker 2: We don't talk about that a lot. No, we say 860 00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:16,879 Speaker 2: a breakup all I had to forgive, how I put 861 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:21,279 Speaker 2: it past me. But for ourself forgiveness, what does that 862 00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:21,719 Speaker 2: look like? 863 00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:24,160 Speaker 3: And how hard is that right? And why do why 864 00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:26,080 Speaker 3: don't we offer that to ourselves. 865 00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:30,640 Speaker 1: I don't know. It's uncomfortable because forgiving yourself means you 866 00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:35,200 Speaker 1: admit that you played a part in something, you made 867 00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:42,080 Speaker 1: a mistake, or you uh miscalculated something or made a misstep. Right, 868 00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:45,160 Speaker 1: So I think a lot of people don't even want 869 00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:47,080 Speaker 1: to do that much, so they don't get to the 870 00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:50,080 Speaker 1: forgiveness because they're like, stuck on I'm perfect, Yeah, stuck 871 00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:53,040 Speaker 1: on it.

I feel like maybe that's why we can't 873 00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:55,919 Speaker 1: get there. 874 00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:59,480 Speaker 2: Yes, that's not a good place to be, but the 875 00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:02,640 Speaker 2: way forgiveness is a big part of the redemption. 876 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,000 Speaker 3: You gotta it's got to be forgiveness. 877 00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:07,560 Speaker 1: And redemption and others and others, Yeah, others that don't 878 00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:11,759 Speaker 1: even ask for your forgiveness, others that may still be 879 00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:15,239 Speaker 1: perpetrating things against you, may still be gaslighting you, you know, 880 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 1: and you still got to forgive them because why are 881 00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:21,759 Speaker 1: we harboring bad feelings, bad ill feelings?
