I sit down with Psychotherapist and Journey Clinical KAP provider, Holly Forman. We discuss Holly’s decision to have a home birth, the balance of preparation and surrender, and ultimately birthing a new version of yourself. We discuss:
- The similarities of psychedelic journeys and birth
- Women advocating for themselves, gaining knowledge about the birthing process, and not feeling like you have to give your power away
- The balance of preparation and complete surrender to the unknown
- Humans fear what they don’t know
- Birthing yourself
- How as humans we often want to avoid the wild, raw, messy, and painful sides of life
- How important integration is after birth and a psychedelic journey
- Ketamine therapy
- Internal Family Systems
