    Naina Eira Gupta on Psychedelics, Mind Training and the End of Separation // To Feel Everything and Not Be Lost - E265

    What happens when we stop chasing spiritual highs and start training the mind for the benefit of all beings? In this episode, Amisha speaks with Naina Eira Gupta, PhD(c), whose work explores the relationship between contemplative practice, unitive states and psychedelics. Naina brings together philosophy, Buddhism, Vajrayana Tantra, psychedelic science, the Nālandā tradition and her own lived experience of mind training. She shares how early experiences with psychedelics opened profound states of dissolution, and how Tibetan Buddhist practice helped her understand that the point is not to chase spiritual highs, but to cultivate lasting traits of awareness, compassion, humility and discernment. Together, Amisha and Naina explore suffering, grief, nondual awareness, the self, spiritual protection, lineage, community and the distortions of the New Age. They speak about the difference between feeling suffering fully and ruminating on it, and how ancient wisdom can help us meet pain without bypassing it or becoming lost inside our stories. Naina invites us into a deeper understanding of psychedelics as a tool, not a destination. She speaks about why powerful experiences need strong ethical, contemplative and communal containers, and why practice is ultimately not for personal peace alone, but for the benefit of all beings. This is a fierce, funny and deeply alive conversation about the nature of mind, the end of separation, and how to become more spacious in a world shaped by division, urgency and collapse.

    Harriet Goudard on Horse Constellations, Lineage and Belonging // The Wisdom of the Herd - E263

    How can we live with more trust, belonging, and courage in a fractured world? In this episode, Amisha speaks with Harriet Goudard about belonging, Family Constellations, horses, ancestry, and the living intelligence of the field. Together they explore what it means to belong in a time of fracture, isolation, and disconnection. Harriet shares how horses, through their herd wisdom, presence, and sensitivity, can reveal something vital about how we take our place in family, community, leadership, and life. This conversation moves through the ancestral patterns that shape us, the nervous system capacity required to stay in relationship, and the ways we often defend, perform, withdraw, or make others into perpetrators when something in us has not yet been met. Amisha and Harriet reflect on the complexity of family systems, the limits of simplistic ideas of "toxicity", and the need to move beyond blame without bypassing real pain. They speak about conflict as part of belonging, and how relationships, communities, and lineages ask us to grow our capacity to stay present with what is difficult, tender, and true. Harriet shares her work with Family Constellations and horses, including how horses can act as powerful mirrors, guides, and diagnostic presences in the field. She speaks about her own journey with horses, the wild ponies of Dartmoor, and the deep systemic wisdom held by ancient equine lineages. This beautiful conversation is an invitation to soften, to lean back into trust, to resource ourselves through our lineage, and to remember that belonging is not a perfect state. It is a living practice of being seen, staying open, and taking our place. Listen to explore: . Family Constellations with horses . horses as teachers of belonging . why belonging has become fractured . ancestral and family system patterns . nervous system capacity and relational repair . conflict in relationships and communities . moving beyond blame, victimhood, and projection . authenticity as a slower, embodied path . intuition, the field, and the intelligence of life . the wisdom of the Dartmoor Hill ponies Links from this episode and more at www.allthatweare.org

    TIMELESS // 'How to Build a Future we can Actually Live in' with Daniel Epstein - E262

    In this TIMELESS episode, we revisit a conversation with Daniel Epstein from E152 on how we build a future we can actually live in. Together, Daniel and Amisha explore what it means to repurpose capitalism as a tool for regeneration, rather than extraction. They look at the relationship between doing good, doing well, and being well, asking how entrepreneurship can serve life without asking us to sacrifice our bodies, relationships, or joy along the way. Daniel shares examples of pioneering companies that The Unreasonable Fellowship is supporting, creating more inclusive and regenerative futures: from transforming pollution into usable materials to reimagining food systems, farming, and soil health. This conversation also opens into the deeper conditions needed for meaningful change: courage, community, long-term thinking, passion, and an honest reckoning with privilege. Listen to explore: . capitalism as a tool for regeneration . doing good, doing well, and being well . entrepreneurship, wellness, and the myth of endless hard work . why long-term change needs community and support . recognising that poverty, climate, health, soil, and justice are part of one living system . the role of privilege, courage, and devotion in becoming an entrepreneur . how to build a future that feeds life We highly recommend you to listen to the full episode as well, tune in  here For links and more, please visit www.allthatweare.org

    Farah Orths on Belonging, Prayer and Worthiness // The End of Separation - E261

    What if belonging was never something we had to earn? In this tender and nourishing conversation, Amisha sits down with Farah Orths to explore belonging, prayer, love, and what it means to live beyond separation. Drawing from her own journey through intrusive thoughts, questions of identity, and a lifelong search for belonging, Farah shares how she came to discover a deeper home in Divine love, one that exists beyond achievement, certainty, or the need to become someone else. Together, Amisha and Farah explore the difference between false belonging and true belonging, the role of prayer and presence in uncertain times, and how we might soften rather than harden in the face of life's challenges. They reflect on spirituality beyond self-improvement, questioning modern narratives of manifestation, worthiness, abundance, and endless becoming, while returning to a simpler understanding of prayer, presence, and our inherent belonging. The conversation weaves through the neuroscience of prayer and meditation, ancestral patterns of suffering and separation, the healing power of music and song, and how our relationship with money can become a doorway to remembering our innate worth. Along the way, they explore what happens when spirituality becomes another project of striving, and how we might return instead to a spirituality rooted in relationship, devotion, presence, and love. At its heart, this conversation is an invitation to lean back into what already holds us, and to remember that belonging is not something we earn, but something we return to. Listen to explore: • belonging beyond identity, lineage and separation • prayer, presence and living in relationship with the Divine • softening through grief, uncertainty and hardship • the neuroscience of prayer and meditation • false belonging versus innate belonging • ancestral patterns of suffering, survival and separation • spirituality beyond striving, performance and self-improvement • modern manifestation culture and the myth of "not enough" • music, devotion and the healing power of song • transforming our relationship with money and wealth • remembering our innate worth, wholeness and belonging Links from this episode and more at www.allthatweare.org
