104. From Breakup to Breakthrough: Travel, Truffles & Transformation with Anne Kiehl Friedman
What happens when life’s toughest moments force you to question the life you’ve created and even who you thought you were? This week on The Psychedelic Mom, Anne Kiehl Friedman joins MIchaela Carlin to share her personal journey of awakening to her own self-worth. Central to Anne’s story is the concept of "blender moments"—periods of intense upheaval, such as her struggle with Lyme disease and a painful breakup, that forced her to reexamine her life and break free from societal conditioning and expectations. For Anne, these challenges led to profound personal growth, ultimately inspiring her to tell her story in her memoir, ‘Higher Love: A Psychedelic Travel Memoir of Heartbreak and Healing’. Her book and advocacy work invite others, especially women, to question the cultural pressures placed upon them and explore the healing potential of psychedelics in an intentional way as a path to deeper authenticity and personal liberation.
