04: The Plant Medicine Initiation
What if the parts of yourself you can't reach with your mind... are exactly where your body has been holding the answer?
In this episode, I'm taking you into the psilocybin trip that changed everything. I released 20 years of stored trauma in a single session, my pelvic organ prolapse healed within a week, I stopped grinding my teeth after 15 years, and I heard my own voice for the first time in my life.
For years, I thought I could heal from the outside in. That the right modality, the right teacher, or the right mentor would be the thing that finally cracked me open. Instead, my body led me to plant medicine, and to the sovereignty lesson I did not know I still needed.
This is the story of what happens when your subconscious is cracked open by medicine that Indigenous cultures have used for thousands of years. What discernment looks like when you're the most vulnerable you've ever been. And what it means to finally hear your voice underneath all the masks and patterns.
If you've ever felt like your body is holding something you can't access with your mind... this episode will help you understand why.
Content Warning: This episode includes a story of childhood sexual abuse from when I was 10 years old. It's handled with dignity and without graphic detail, but if today isn't the day you're ready for this story, honor that.
This episode also includes conversations about psilocybin and plant medicine used in a therapeutic setting.

If this episode resonated with you, here are a few places I'd recommend starting:
- The Empire Membership - If you want ongoing access to the exact tools I used to integrate everything that came up on that trip - the NLP, the hypnosis, the EFT, the subconscious reprogramming processes - they all live inside The Empire. Plus my complete AWAKEN course. This is the hub for everything I teach.
- MicroFlow by Christi Nault - If you feel called to explore microdosing or psilocybin in a safe, cycle-synced, therapeutic container, I highly recommend Christi's MicroFlow blends. She's the person I turn to for this medicine, and she offers ceremonies, a free intro masterclass, and personalized blends synced to the phases of your cycle. Click here to shop, and use the code JENNALOCKHART for $10 off your order. Follow her on Instagram @microflow.healing for her free masterclass and more.
- The Four Voices of Pain Blog Post - I promised on the podcast to write a blog post about the four voices of pain... the four reasons your body creates physical symptoms, and what to do when you can identify which voice you're hearing. Read the full post here.
- You Can Heal Your Life by Louise Hay - I referenced Louise's work in this episode because her book maps the body-mind connection more clearly than almost any other resource I know. If you're curious about what your physical symptoms might be trying to tell you emotionally and energetically, start here.
