“UNSTUCK: A Documentary Series

Changing the conversation about mental health and psychedelic healing.

Unstuck explores the transformative potential of psychedelic-assisted therapy through real stories of healing and human connection. Set in New Mexico, this educational series follows individuals and communities reclaiming wellness through psilocybin-assisted therapy—while confronting stigma, outdated laws, and the barriers that keep so many from access to care.

Blending science, storytelling, and lived experience, Unstuck examines how psilocybin and other plant medicines are redefining mental health treatment, offering new hope for depression, trauma, and existential suffering.

This series is part of a growing movement to decriminalize, educate, and expand access to safe, ethical, and community-based psychedelic care.”

📚 Education. Advocacy. Healing.

Hi all!👋🏼 I’m happy to share that I posted an updated blog that was based off of the last circle, Plants & Planets 🌱🪐 My friend Jason of and I had such a great time holding this ritual circle with some lovely souls in celebration of Samhain🍂🍁 This circle focused on rituals for the season that can help with grounding, relaxing the nervous system and creating space for the rituals we seek✨ From alters, to spell jars to herbs that support the transition into the dark months, I hope you enjoy this blog as much as I do❣️
I was honored to have Jason co-host with me to share his deep knowledge and insight of astrology and magical gemstones, both of which he shares in ways we can understand 🙌🏼 If you are wanting to learn more about your birth chart and how the planets affect, support and guide you in this journey, consider a one on one session with him. 🪐✨
For those interested in support through coaching, herbal blends or plant medicine practices, I will love if you scheduled a consultation with myself to see how we can proceed on your healing journey🌙✨

Acupuncture can also stimulate the release of endorphins and serotonin which help relieve pain naturally.
