Our guest today was introduced to me by a good friend of the podcast, Ryan Sprague, and when he sends someone my way I know it will be a good conversation.
Back in 2004 our guest became the first Westerner to be recognized as a Maestro Medico Vegetalista or Amazonian Plant Medicine Expert. Since receiving this title of distinction he has guided over 3,000 plant medicine ceremonies and has assisted over 15,000 individuals on their healing journeys.
To say he is well versed in the realm of plant medicine is an understatement. He is also a coach, author, teacher and artist. He has been featured by Time Magazine, National Geographic, The New York Times and The Aubrey Marcus Podcast.
He is here to take us on a deep dive into plant medicines and the indigenous wisdom teachings of the Amazonian Jungle.

Hello everyone, my name is Adam Carbary and I want to thank you for tuning into another episode of the Embrace and Expand Podcast.
On this episode we welcome back a guest from earlier in the season who is a wealth of knowledge in astrology, breathwork, personal training and how to regulate your nervous system.
As we both having been going through very similar energies in our lives we decided to treat this podcast as a conversation between two friends instead of a traditional interview.
We touch on a plethora of topics from the current state of our world, what we can do to improve our lives and how the simple things are the greatest gifts in life.
I hope you enjoy this phenomenal conversation with Hali Bailey.

This is an encore presentation of this episode that aired back in April of 2023
Today we welcome to the podcast our very first guest of season 2. I came across this beautiful soul during a week long Breathwork Summit back in January of 2023. After taking pages of notes from his hour long workshop I knew I needed to get him onto the podcast to share with all of you his wondrous teachings.
He spent several years living and studying in a Hindu monastery which introduced him to the core body of Tantric traditions which continue to flow through each of his teachings. Apprenticeships in leadership development, meditation and philosophy training, spiritual awakening and Vedic rituals were all part of his development into the thought-leader that he is today.
His teachings, through a mixture of Dharma talks, Meditations and Breathwork Practices, guide seekers to explore their deepest selves leading them to live their lives free from tension and full of trust. Through his hugely popular Wanderlust Festival workshops, Unplug teachings and online trainings, He has been catalyzing the inner evolution of others for decades: helping them to grow, transform obstacles into opportunities, and find Love within.
It is my absolute pleasure to introduce you to Scott Schwenk.

The woman joining us on today’s episode was recently introduced to me by a friend of the show Steve Norris from the Better Place Project Podcast. He suggested I have her onto the show to share her wisdom of working with animals with all of you; so here we are.
From a very early age she knew that she was on the side of animals going vegetarian at the age of 12. She went on to do work experience as a teenager at a busy hospital in Dublin, Ireland. That led her to complete an honors degree in analytical chemistry and biology which took her through a 7 year career in the Pharmaceutical industry.
That experience allowed her to view the healing process from an allopathic and holistic approach. Over the years she has traveled all over the world studying many different forms of healing modalities and fine tuning her abilities to communicate with animals and glean what they are feeling and how best to assist them.
Having five fur kids myself this is a conversation that I have been greatly looking forward to. Without further ado let me introduce you to Lisa Tully.

After experiencing his workshop I knew I had to have him on the podcast to share his view and perspective with all of you listening.

Utilizing a slough of modalities such as breathwork, meditation, movement, EFT, NLP, and EMDR, just to name a few, he host workshops and retreats with the vision to awaken the divine spark within each and every person, empowering them to reclaim their authentic selves and find healing from within.

Today I am excited to bring on a very special guest who has made a massive impact in my life.
Those of you who have been listening to the podcast since the beginning have heard myself and many other guests talk about Somatic Breathwork and the amazing benefits it can provide.

Earlier in the season I invited world renowned author and expert on Druidry, occult and ancient mysticism John Michael Greer onto the podcast.
That episode, Druidry - A Path to Wholeness, has since been the most listen to episode of The Embrace and Expand podcast.
Since all of you listening seemed to enjoy that episode so much I thought it best to invite John Michael Greer back onto the podcast so we could gain some more of his wisdom.
If you didn’t catch that episode go ahead and take a pause now and give it a listen.
Then come back and join John Michael Greer and I for another enlightening conversation.

Today we have a special episode with not one but two guests with a wild and adaptogenic love story.
They were high school sweethearts who married very young and after three years found themselves separated and eventually divorced, never thinking they would see one another again.
In 2018, they both found themselves physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually at rock bottom. They each spent the next three years individually working on their own self development journeys.
Through their shared passion for the healing power of medicinal mushrooms their paths crossed again. They are now on Part 2 of their life together and more in love than ever. Co-creating a line of mushrooms products called MushyLove.

Following her deep passion for astrology she has trained under several renowned teachers to expand her knowledge on the subject.
She now focuses on the Breath, Body and Soul connection helping her clients to transform their lives by gaining more knowledge on who they are at their very core.

On this episode we have two very special guests.
For the last 6 years this heart centered duo has been on a mission to bring true ceremonial-grade cacao to the western world for healing, inspiration, health and connection.
Supporting local farmers from Peru and Guatemala, where this medicine originates, they go beyond fair trade pricing to make sure that those families and communities can thrive while cultivating this medicine with the purest of intentions.
They have created their production process start to finish to preserve the integrity and essence of cacao for the highest benefit of those who work with it.
Having personally spent a significant amount of time in ceremony with their product I can attest to its purity and quality. So, without further delay it is my pleasure to introduce you to Michael and Makenzie McPherson.

Our guest on this podcast is someone I recently discovered while in the pursuit of furthering my own journey around cultivating inner peace and wellness.
After sustaining an injury in 2015, he left corporate America and ventured into the world of wellness.
He has studied under some world renowned teachers such as Jack Kornfield, Tara Brach, and Jesse Lee Parker just to name a few, turning him into a yoga and QiGong instructor, mediation teacher, and leadership coach.
His injury helped him to catalyze change in his life, as well as embody these teachings and education on a cellular level.
Leading him to the realization that the less stress he experiences in life, the less pain he experienced.
He truly is the embodiment of compassion, peace, joy and absolute passion. So I introduce you to Christopher Peña. Christopher, welcome to the Embrace and Expand Podcast.

On this episode I get a little personal. I talk about the importance of recognizing your limitations and when you need to start setting boundaries to protect your health and mental well being. The truth is we can't do it all and sometimes we take on more than we can handle. When that happens we need to set a boundary with ourselves and the outside world so we don't become stressed, overwhelmed and anxious.

Today we welcome to the podcast our very first guest of season 2. I came across this beautiful soul during a week long Breathwork Summit back in January of 2023. After taking pages of notes from his hour long workshop I knew I needed to get him onto the podcast to share with all of you his wondrous teachings.
He spent several years living and studying in a Hindu monastery which introduced him to the core body of Tantric traditions which continue to flow through each of his teachings. Apprenticeships in leadership development, meditation and philosophy training, spiritual awakening and Vedic rituals were all part of his development into the thought-leader that he is today.
His teachings, through a mixture of Dharma talks, Meditations and Breathwork Practices, guide seekers to explore their deepest selves leading them to live their lives free from tension and full of trust. Through his hugely popular Wanderlust Festival workshops, Unplug teachings and online trainings, He has been catalyzing the inner evolution of others for decades: helping them to grow, transform obstacles into opportunities, and find Love within.
It is my absolute pleasure to introduce you to Scott Schwenk.

Today’s interview is with a guest I met at a Somatic Breathwork Training last December in Phoenix.
Finding out more about his story I knew I had to invite him on the Podcast. Like many of our guests he led a life that from the outside looking in was perfect. Founder of several companies, as well as, being named one of Silicon Valley’s 40 under 40 at the age of 31, he was living the dream life. Despite all his success’s he found himself to still feel like something was missing.
He is a serial entrepreneur turned spiritual seeker and spent the last 4 years diving deep into himself and exploring the meaning of life. Now a best selling author of the book SOUL/Life Balance and host of the podcast Soul Seekr. He is on a mission to bridge the gap between the way we conduct ourselves in business, mindful practices, and how we communicate with others, but most importantly ourselves. So I introduce you to Sam Kabert, Sam welcome to the Embrace & Expand Podcast.

On this episode we invite a kindred soul to the Embrace and Expand podcast.
This guest and I have walked similar paths in life. Waking up one day realizing the life she was living was no longer in alignment with what she wanted her life to look like. After making drastic changes, her and her family hit the road in a self converted school bus to follow the life of their dreams. She is now an author, influencer and weaver of magic. Devoting her life to helping others grow and making the world a more beautiful place. So I introduce to you my friend, fellow bus driver and spiritual seeker, Tawny McVay.

In this episode I talk about the key to wisdom. I have found that in life knowledge is power, but knowledge only turns to wisdom when it is applied. When we can learn from the wisdom of others and the wisdom from our own life experiences we can unlock the door to our own potential. The key is that once that door is unlocked you must choose to walk through it in order to find the key to your own wisdom. Once you find your own wisdom you can begin to live life on your terms.

In this episode I discuss respecting your boundaries. Do you struggle with setting and respecting boundaries? I know I have for a very long time. As a recovering people pleaser I have had to learn to set boundaries in order to be able to have the capacity to show up in the way that I want to. Setting boundaries, and respecting them, isn't always an easy thing to do but it is necessary in order to have the right amount of time to keep out cup full. From that full cup we can be there for others and to help fill their cups when they need it.

She has gone through her own healing journey overcoming intense adverse experiences in childhood, recovery from abuse, substances, self-sacrificing and self sabotage.
Her goal in life is to help her clients to reconnect to their hearts and true divine nature. By helping them to realize that they don’t have to make drastic changes to be “good enough”, but to come back to the foundational truth that: you already are enough.

About helping one another to embrace all that we are so we can expand into the best versions of ourselves.

In the card pull for this episode we are greeted by two ravens asking us to trust in magic. When did you stop believing and trusting in magic. When did you stop seeing the magic in the world all around you. In this episode I talk about how we can begin to shift our perspective again to be able to trust in magic. To see the magic in the mundane tasks that we have to do in the day to day. So let this episode spark that awe and wonder int yourself again. Let it draw out that inner child so you can begin to trust in magic again.

This is an extra special episode as we have our very first guest on The Embrace and Expand Podcast; Vash Tomanec. Vash used to be an Uber eats delivery guy who knew he was destined for something greater. He had the dream of owning his own business and decided to use the powers of visualization and manifestation to make it happen. Two years later and he owns 3 businesses and received an award from Click Funnels for achieving the million dollar mark. We dive deep into this episode on how he manifested the life of his dreams and he gives tips for you to do the same. This one is powerful and I am so grateful to have had such an amazing and enlightening conversation with Vash.

On this episode I talk about being patient. In our modern age many of us live in a state of instant gratification, which in turn has cultivated a society with very little patience. Being on a healing journey or in the beginning phase of a spiritual awakening having patient is of the utmost importance. We must learn to have patience with our own process and patience with others as well. Where can you cultivate a little more patience in your life?

In this episode I talk about different ways that I have found to nourish my soul. How often do we do things or buy things that we think will bring us fulfillment but only for a moment? Nourishing your soul is all about bringing fulfillment into your life on a soul level. Developing personal practices or shifting careers to one where you are being of service to others is just a few of the ways you can nourish your soul. So what do you do to nourish your soul?

In episode 9 I discuss what it means to Know Your Labels. Knowing our labels and what we use for ourself, as well as what others have placed on us, will only help us to know ourselves better. We carry both light and dark aspects of ourselves and need to know both sides. We need to accept what makes us who we are, but we also need to let go of any labels that no longer apply. Deciding what labels you want to go by and what labels you don't will only help you become the person you came here to be; your authentic self.

Today's episode is based off of the card Time to Rise, which is depicted by a phoenix. Just like the phoenix there are times in our lives where things do go as we may have planned and we have to rise from the ashes to try again. How many times in your life have you given up too early instead of giving it another attempt and pushing through? Time to Rise offers the invitation to let what no longer serves you or old patterns that are no longer helping to fall away and to become a better version of yourself. It's time to rise into the best version of yourself.

Today's episode is a bit different than the rest. I tell the story of when I fell out of a tree and ended up going through a transcendental experience that changed my life forever. It changed how I view myself and how it has allowed me to step fully into my power and let go of the aspects that have held me back for years. It was this experience that gave me the confidence and inspiration to bring this podcast to life. I hope that in hearing this story it will give you the permission to step fully into your light and bring forth what your soul is calling of you.

In today's episode I talk about being blinded by bias. We all have preferences and biases but more often than not those biases limit our experiences in life. They limit the things we are willing to try or the places we are willing to go. They can limit the very perspective we have on the world and even ourselves. So how can you let go of some of your biases so you can expand your life and embrace the new and unknown?
