    Ep 47: Sobriety, Surrender & the Power of Now with Adam Dowling

    After meeting during an ayahuasca ceremony, I sat down with Adam Dowling, a firefighter who shares how his move into sobriety opened the door to an expansive dive into spirituality.    Adam shares how decades of substance use came to an abrupt end in 2020, and how sobriety became the doorway to something much bigger: surrender, presence, and a profound spiritual awakening. Through recovery, unexpected moments of stillness (including working the beverage aisle at Target), and teachings from Eckhart Tolle and Michael Singer, Adam discovered a truth that changed everything: You are not your thoughts. You are the one aware of them. We talk about: Sobriety as a spiritual initiationSurrender as strengthLetting go of the inner narrator that fuels anxietyDivine masculinity and why these conversations are rare among menConsciousness, oneness, and living in the nowPlant medicine experiences (Bufo & ayahuasca) and discernment around healingWhy you are already whole & nothing needs fixingThis episode is grounding, expansive, funny, honest, and deeply human. Whether you’re sober, sober-curious, spiritual, skeptical, or somewhere in between - this conversation is a reminder that freedom doesn’t come from controlling life… it comes from being present with it.

    Often spirituality pulls us up and out.  We often wanna connect into the crown chakra, the ether, the beyond.

Tierra Karoua, is an embodied movement guide helping people reconnect somatically to their inner power, to the truth that lives in the tissues, in the breath, in the subtle shifts of energy we often ignore.

    Ep 43: Inside My Ayahuasca Experience with Matt Dorsey

    Ayahuasca - an ancient Amazonian plant medicine. A brew made from two plants that somehow unlocks a portal to your inner world.  People drink ayahuasca for many reasons - to heal trauma, to understand their purpose, to peel back layers that life has piled on.  It is not a casual trip. It’s not cute. It’s profound, humbling, and, yes, it can get messy, maybe you've heard about the purge...and we get into that more in this episode...but Ayahuasca is also one of the most powerful invitations to transformation we have on this planet.  This episode is mostly limited to my experience while on the medicine - with a smattering of context here and there, and as always when I’m with matt I feel like it’s a little off the rails - so sorry about us.   There is just so much to explain!  But later this month, Derek from Pachamama Sanctuary (where I went both times) is coming on the podcast to get into the experience in way more detail.  He's sat with Ayahuasca over 150 times and he's seen it all.  So stay tuned for that!  HOUSEKEEPING - A heads up - I was all flustered at the beginning of this interview and didn’t press the record button on the mics until 3 minutes in - so please bare with the first 3 minutes of bad audio, I promise it kicks in in no time.   - If you're feeling called to do Ayahuasca and want to discuss - I am happy to chat about it with you!  Please don’t hesitate to reach out.   Email: Laura@TheWooReportPodcast.com DM: @theWooReport AYAHUASCA RETREAT CENTER Pachamama Sanctuary in Maine  Discussed in the episode "I Greet This Day With Love In My Heart" Scroll from The Greatest Salesman In The World "The Woo Report Podcast" explores all the unseen energies of the #universe and maps how this magic helps us grow and live better.

    Ep 41: Communicating with Animals & Equine Therapy with Kate Neligan

    Kate Neligan is an animal communicator and healer who specializes in equine-partnered spiritual growth. Meaning: she works with her horses to help people heal, offering greater clarity, focus, empowerment, improved communication, deeper self-awareness, more love, courage, confidence, reduced stress… truly the whole spectrum. Sometimes this looks like sitting quietly in a chair near a horse, closing your eyes, taking a deep breath, and allowing the horse to come to you and do its energy work. Maybe you’ve seen those viral clips of people on massage tables in a horse pen receiving this kind of healing — and yes, people feel real results. Horses have always intimidated me, and it turns out… there’s meaning behind that, too. Kate is so attuned to these majestic beings, and she shares how this beautiful modality can help us tap into the power within ourselves. And even if you don’t have access to a horse, she talks about how we can all communicate with nature and the animals around us every single day. Even the squirrels... who might actually have something to say to us - And Honestly… I believe it - we are often so removed from the natural world, but of course the universe is providing guidance to us in that way, among a million other ways. It’s just on US to be open enough to hear it. More about Kate Kate Neligan is an Equine-Partnered Life/Business Coach who supports her clients' intuition, emotional intelligence, and empowered leadership both virtually and in-person with horses and goats. Kate left her VP of Marketing career at a movie studio to pursue her calling for the transformation that happens within the human-animal bond.
