Hey there, fellow seekers of MORE!

Ever wondered what it feels like to take a psychedelic-powered trip? What’s it like to journey within yourself, face your deepest fears, and come out the other side feeling transformed? On this week’s episode of The Microdose Diet, we explore exactly that—and much more—with our incredible guest, Karen Wookey

Karen is a multi-hyphenate leader, from her work in entertainment as a producer and director to guiding profound psilocybin ceremonies worldwide. Having participated in hundreds of ceremonies across several continents, Karen is here to share her wisdom, experiences, and the raw truth behind these healing journeys.

??What Does a Psilocybin Journey Look Like?

A psilocybin journey is a deeply personal and transformative experience. Karen describes it as a dance between surrender and exploration. It's not just a trip—it’s an invitation to go within, to face your fears, and to emerge with new clarity.

In Karen's own words: "The medicine sits on your fear receptors and opens your heart. It shows you where you need to go—emotionally, physically, spiritually."

In her one-on-one ceremonies, Karen walks participants through every step of the process, from preparing for the journey to integrating the powerful lessons afterward. She emphasizes that every experience is different, but the key lies in the willingness to surrender and trust the process.

??Facing Fear and Embracing Surrender

One of the most common anxieties people have before a psilocybin journey is fear of losing control. And yes, fear is a natural part of the process—but it's also one of the most powerful aspects of the journey. Facing that fear head-on, without distraction, is what allows for true transformation.

Karen shares, “To create a better life, you have to face your fears. The medicine gives you the opportunity to do that in a profound way, allowing you to break through blocks you may not even realize are there.”

??Integration: The Real Work Begins After the Journey

The real magic of a psilocybin journey doesn’t happen during the ceremony—it happens in the days and weeks that follow. Integration is the practice of taking the insights from the journey and applying them to your everyday life. Without integration, the journey is just an experience; with it, it becomes a catalyst for lasting change.

Karen advises participants to spend time journaling, reflecting, and allowing the lessons to unfold in their own time. She also provides follow-up support and tools to help people integrate their experiences into their lives, ensuring that the shifts they experience are long-lasting.

"The medicine is only as good as the practice you bring back with you. If you don’t make changes in your life, you’ll be back to where you started."

??Top Tips for Anyone Curious About Psilocybin

Curious about exploring a psilocybin journey for yourself? Karen shares her top 3 pieces of advice:

1. Do Your Research: Start by learning as much as you can about psilocybin and its effects. There’s a wealth of information available, from scientific studies to personal experiences. Get informed.
2. Find the Right Guide: The person guiding you through the journey is key. Make sure you feel 100% safe and supported, and choose someone with experience and integrity.
3. Be Open and Brave: The most transformative experiences come when you allow yourself to surrender and face whatever comes up. Trust that the journey will take you where you need to go.

????My Personal Experience

I had the privilege of experiencing one of Karen’s psilocybin ceremonies earlier this summer, and it was truly life-changing. The insights I gained, some of which were completely unexpected, have had a profound impact on both my personal and professional life.

As Karen mentioned, it’s not about becoming a different person overnight—it’s about gaining the clarity you need to take your life to the next level. And that’s exactly what I experienced: more clarity, more alignment, and a deeper understanding of the blocks that were holding me back.
