Pandora Morris is the founder of the Hurt to Healing podcast, created from her own 17-year struggle with OCD and anorexia. After years of misdiagnosis and ineffective treatments, she finally found the right care during the pandemic and has since turned her story into a mission to help others. In this conversation, Pandora and I dive deep into what it really means to live with OCD and the misconceptions surrounding it. We talk about exposure response prevention therapy, reframing identity beyond illness and the importance of community in recovery. Pandora also shares her first beautiful experience with psilocybin - a moment of euphoria, laughter and kaleidoscopic vision that opened her heart, gave her a new sense of free will and helped her reconnect with joy. Together, we explore the shadow side of healing, the role of gratitude and daily practices in shifting negative thought loops and how small steps can make a profound difference over time. Pandora’s story is both raw and inspiring: a reminder that healing is not about perfection, but about uncovering who we really are and walking forward with strength, curiosity and love.

Simon Salter is the co-founder of DIRTEA, the UK-based mushroom supplement brand that he built alongside his brother Andrew. Together, they’ve not only created an incredibly successful business but also sparked a movement to redefine what it means to live in the rhythm of nature and bring mushrooms to the mass. From day one, their focus has been on education, awareness and building community - helping to demystify these powerful medicines and share how they can support everyday wellbeing. In this conversation, Simon and I get into what it means to become the CEO of your own body and the role of ritual in slowing down the mind. We talk about the power of meditation, the pillars to live a lighter life, stepping into uncharted territory with confidence and how bringing like-minded people together creates a ripple effect of wellness far beyond the product itself. He also shares a deeply personal story about this mother which leads us to talk about the importance of the preventive approach and the wonderful Marisa Peer. I hope this episode inspires you to weave a little more functional mushroom magic and intentionality into your everyday life.

My guest, Phoebe McPherson, and I take a deep dive into the world of kanna - a magical plant that has brought so much joy and excitement into my life over the past year. As a kanna educator, herbalist, and all-around plant fairy, brings a wealth of knowledge and a deep passion for the power of plants. Through Function and Funguy, the companies she co-founded, she’s dedicated to helping people cultivate balance, vitality, and a deeper connection with themselves and nature. In this episode, we explore kanna’s heart-opening qualities, the importance of intention when working with medicinal plants, tuning into the body, and the art of attracting rather than chasing. Expect many learnings and an introduction to plants you may not have encountered before - ones that just might become game-changing additions to your life. Trust us.
