    In episode 24, host Ariana Cleo sits down with Tonya Papanikolov, the founder and CEO of Rainbo, to explore the powerful intersection of ancient fungal wisdom, neuroscience, and the modern "woo" journey. Tonya, who identifies as a "star seed child," shares her personal evolution—from childhood dreams and visions to harnessing the healing potential of functional mushrooms. Together, they bridge the gap between scientific fact and the mystery of the natural world. In this episode, we dive into: -Fungi 101: Decoding the difference between culinary, functional, and magic mushrooms, and why fungi are the original "networkers" of our ecosystem. -Neuroscience & Psychedelics: How adaptogenic mushrooms like reishi and lion's mane support nervous system regulation, and the role of psilocybin in resetting the brain's "default mode network." -Breaking the Caffeine Cycle: Tonya's personal experience using plant medicine to overcome coffee addiction and trade cortisol-spiked energy for natural, sustainable vitality. -Healing Modalities: Why breathwork, forest bathing (Shinrin-yoku), and the intelligence of nature are just as potent as any supplement for managing burnout and nervous system health. -Whether you're a medicinal mushroom enthusiast or simply "woo-curious," this conversation offers actionable insight on how to live a healthier, more connected life.   Show Notes: ITW IG Ariana IG Tonya IG Rainbo IG Produced by Peoples Media

    Finding Purpose & The Reality of Plant Medicine with Jordan Foster

    n this episode, we sit down with Jordan Foster, the Style Director behind Favorite Daughter, to pull back the curtain on balancing a high-profile fashion career with an intensive, lifelong relationship with "the woo." While Jordan is a master at crafting impeccable aesthetics, this conversation navigates the deeper, often messy healing that happens off-camera. We unpack her journey with plant medicine—and why the trend of "journeying" is only half the battle—discussing the critical importance of long-term integration, somatic therapy, and building true safety within the nervous system. We also get real about the intersection of motherhood and high sensitivity, exploring the challenges of parenting "deeply feeling" children while navigating her own triggers and the ongoing process of "firing herself" from professional obligations that no longer align with her soul. And, because we couldn't let her leave without an answer, we finally settle the family mystery: who is the actual favorite daughter? If you've ever felt like career success felt empty, or if you're a "sensitive" trying to navigate the noise of modern life, this episode is a reminder that the most important work isn't what we show the world—it's what we do to build a home inside ourselves.   Show Notes: ITW IG Ariana IG Jordan Foster IG Shop Favorite Daughter   Produced by Peoples Media

    What happens when a Yale and Columbia-trained psychiatrist stops performing rationality and finally comes home to herself? Today's guest is Dr. Ellen Vora — board-certified psychiatrist, medical acupuncturist, yoga teacher, and the most woo doctor you've ever met. She is the author of The Anatomy of Anxiety and her brand new book Season of the Witch: A Psychiatrist's Case for Magic, and she is here to give you full permission to reopen the case. We go deep on the grief that cracked her wide open, the acupuncture session where her late mother sent two words through from the other side, and the armadillo story that will make you a believer. We talk about the Witch Wound — the centuries of persecution that taught women to silence their own knowing — and why the left hemisphere of the brain has been mansplaining on behalf of the right hemisphere for far too long. We talk signs, sovereignty, magic as medicine, and what it actually means to be a witch in 2026. This one hit different. Don't miss it.
