Ep257 "I Die Or I Heal." Providencia Lopez Interviews Meridyth Driskill

The Psychedelic Coach Podcast

Join the next Condor Approach Live Feb 22-4t, 2024 https://condorapproach.com/ Host, Providencia Lopez, welcomes Meridyth, a fellow participant at The Condor Approach in Austin, Texas, a program that facilitates different levels of healing. Their discussion starts with their experience of the program, and how connecting with each other made them realize their shared experiences and common values. They go on to discuss the importance of acknowledging trauma and taking steps towards recovery, pointing out its non-linear nature. Both discuss their personal trauma experiences and how they have each dealt with it. They talk about various aspects of healing, including the need for community, the effects of trauma on a person's perception of themselves, as well as societal expectations of perfection. Meridyth shares her powerful experience of healing through a cold-water plunge, an experience she symbolises as a death and rebirth of a new version of herself. The conversation concludes with an expression of gratitude for the support they have found in each other and the healing community. 00:00 Introduction and Meeting Meredith 00:33 Understanding the Condor Approach 01:03 Personal Journey and Healing Your Providence 01:29 Meredith's Story and Journey to the Condor Approach 02:01 The Impact of Trauma and the Path to Healing 11:36 The Role of Authenticity in Healing 16:16 Generational Patterns and Trauma 18:44 Embracing Visibility and Overcoming Fear 19:27 A Spiritual Experience: The First Scream 20:39 The Journey of Courage and Community 20:58 The Cold Water Plunge: A Transformation 21:28 The Mother Wound and the Healing Process 21:56 Facing the Dark Night of the Soul 22:54 The Fear of Cold Plunges and Overcoming It 27:05 The Power of Community and Support 28:18 The Struggle with Shame and Overcoming It 34:11 The Golden Shadow: A New Perspective on Healing 35:39 The Rebirth: A Powerful Moment in Life 36:17 Gratitude and Acknowledgement: The Journey's End https://www.instagram.com/provi3010 https://www.instagram.com/meridythdriskill/
