Join us as we discuss the process of turning your dreams into realities, inner child work, and difficulties of sharing your art with others. Today, we’re thrilled to have Dana Frost with us—a talented poet originally from Trinidad and Tobago, who made her way to New York City seven years ago before landing in Jacksonville, Florida, where our friendship blossomed. This summer, Dana celebrated a significant milestone with the publication of her first book, and she’s currently hard at work on her second. Join us as we dive into her inspiring journey and the creative process behind her art.

Whew! Grab a snack, get something to drink, and buckle in for our longest episode yet. After quite some time spent recording (we recorded about 8 times - no joke), editing, and all the like, we’re finally able to share with you our completion of the conversation on Robert Anton Wilson's book Prometheus Rising. Robert Anton Wilson was an American author whose fiction and nonfiction work spanned a tremendous breadth of topics - from consciousness exploration, conspiracy theory, futurism, mysticism, agnosticism, to politics, and psychology. Wilson was perhaps best known for his exploration and expansion of Leary's Eight-circuit model of consciousness theory, which Prometheus Rising is primarily about. In our previous episode, we discussed Wilson's major influences, and the first four circuits as discussed in PR - Join us as we discuss cults, brainwashing, hacks on choosing happiness and circuits 5-8 of Prometheus rising.
