    Psychedelics, Spiritual Awakening & the Inner Work of Healing | Matt Simpson EP 34

    What if a psychedelic experience isn't the end of your healing journey, but the beginning?In this episode of The SageFull Living Podcast, Susan sits down with Matt Simpson, author, speaker, empowerment coach, and founder of Elite Empowerment, for a deep conversation about trauma, spiritual awakening, psychedelics, nervous system regulation, and the inner work required to create lasting transformation.Matt shares his deeply personal journey from a life that looked successful on the outside career, money, freedom, and everything he thought he was supposed to want to recognizing that something inside him was still deeply unfulfilled. His path eventually led him into plant medicine, spiritual awakening, breathwork, and a profound exploration of the trauma and patterns he had carried for years.Together, Susan and Matt explore an important question that is often overlooked in conversations about psychedelics:What happens after the experience?A powerful ceremony or psychedelic journey may open a door, but what we do afterward can determine whether that experience becomes lasting transformation or simply another moment we move on from.Matt shares why integration, journaling, meditation, nervous system regulation, and the willingness to sit with discomfort are essential parts of the healing process. They also discuss how repeatedly seeking new experiences can sometimes become a way of avoiding the deeper inner work that creates real change.The conversation also explores the connection between a regulated nervous system and a more prosperous, grounded life, as well as the ways trauma, disconnection, and the pursuit of external success can quietly lead us toward burnout.From childhood trauma and spiritual awakening to breathwork, plant medicine, and the courage to face ourselves honestly, this is a conversation about what it truly means to heal and to become the next version of ourselves.In this episode, you'll discover:Why psychedelic experiences may be only the beginning of the healing journeyABOUT THE SHOWThe SageFull Living Podcast explores the intersection of consciousness, personal growth, and practical life tools—through conversations that invite awareness, clarity, and meaningful change.Instagram: @susanthesageWebsite: www.susanthesage.comPodcast Disclaimer The SageFull Living Podcast is intended for informational and inspirational purposes only.
