Ep104. Char’s overcoming addiction and the practice of plant medicine
Manage episode 408353039 series 3359465
Char’s first encounter with addiction manifested in the form of an eating disorder. Food binging served as her means of escape.
‘From a very young age, I felt a lot of discomfort with this world.’
At 21, amidst her burgeoning modelling career, Char ventured into cocaine experimentation. As her pursuits in modelling and singing ceased, she started to work in strip club, which also enabled her access to drugs and alcohol without any judgement.
With the passing of her mother, her father and most recently, her sister, all succumbing to the ravages of cancer, Char embarked on a deeply spiritual journey to look for freedom. Not freedom from drugs and alcohol, just ‘freedom’.
Char openly shares her exploration and practices in plant medicine, with a notable emphasis on mushrooms being a huge part of her spiritual journey.
