When my son suffered a brain injury, the doctors gave me the basics. But I needed to understand how the brain heals. What mechanisms drive neuroplasticity? Why do some interventions work for some people and not others?

So I went deep. Really deep.

I spent thousands of hours reading research papers, studying neuroscience, understanding all kinds of biological functions, and connecting dots that most researchers keep in separate silos (it's amazing how much money is spent to research things that affect old white men compared to how little is spent on disabled people).

And what I discovered changed everything—not just for my son, but for myself, my clients, and now the thousands of people who read my work.

Going deep isn't about being academic for the sake of it. It's about understanding how things actually work so we can make better choices.

I mostly write about:

• Metabolic Ecology - Why ADHD, anxiety, and depression are often symptoms of a dysregulated metabolic system, not just "chemical imbalances"
• Psychedelic Research - How substances like psilocybin, LSD, and legal plant allies work with (or against) your unique biology
• ADHD & Neurodivergence - How the predictive brain model, interoception, and energy budgets explain ADHD better than dopamine deficiency theories
• With a big helping of Nervous System Regulation, Neuro-pleasure & Embodiment - Particularly stress responses, HPA axis dysregulation, and why safety is the foundation of healing

The Success Doula is where I help people with ADHD get unstuck—in life and in business.

If you're exploring microdosing, I don't just hand you a substance and wish you luck. I teach a holistic 5-step protocol based on metabolic ecology frameworks that addresses why substance-first approaches fail for ADHD brains. You need to support your whole system first—your Set, your Setting, your body budget—before any substance will work the way you need it to.

For solo entrepreneurs with ADHD (and anyone who's stuck), there's Unstuckable—a membership where nervous system regulation meets actual tools that work when your brain is in chaos and your body's running on fumes. No two-hour morning routines. No bullshit productivity hacks. Just real support for getting unstuck and building the capacity to actually follow through.

When your nervous system is dysregulated, pleasure gets locked away. And when you reclaim pleasure, everything changes. Through my platform Owning Your O, I help people reconnect with their bodies, reclaim their pleasure, and understand the neuroscience of orgasm and arousal. This isn't just about sex (though that's part of it). It's about:

• Understanding how trauma gets stored in the pelvic floor
• Rewiring neural pathways toward pleasure instead of pain
• Using orgasm as a tool for nervous system regulation
• Releasing shame, guilt, and numbness that blocks embodied aliveness
• Recognizing pleasure as a birthright, not something you have to earn

I'm a lead researcher with Mothers of the Mushroom, a groundbreaking citizen-led research project exploring how psilocybin impacts pregnancy, postpartum, and parenting. We're doing the research that institutions won't touch. And we're doing it rigorously, ethically, and with deep care for the people whose stories we're documenting.

This work is personal. I'm a mother of two teenage boys. I know what it's like to navigate the impossible expectations, the lack of support, the complete absence of honest conversations about substances, healing, and motherhood.

Our mission:

• Document real experiences from real mothers using psilocybin during pregnancy and postpartum
• Challenge the stigma and fill the massive research gaps left by institutional science
• Provide harm reduction information to people who are already using these substances
• Shift the narrative from fear-based prohibition to evidence-based understanding

Every Friday at 9am PST, I co-host Psychedelic Revelations with Dana Harvey. What started as spontaneous Clubhouse conversations has grown into 4,000+ listeners and 110+ episodes of real, evidence-based conversations about psychedelics, healing, and consciousness.

We've interviewed James Fadiman, Mikaela de la Myco, and dozens of others who are bringing these important conversations of what's possible to everyone.

It's live, interactive, and nothing is off limits. Join us live on Zoom, YouTube, and LinkedIn, or catch replays on our website (Spotify, YouTube, and more).
