Liz & Lily Integrate - Part 2: Ketamine as Sacred Support

In this episode of In Right Relationship, Liz and Lily flip the script. This time, Liz interviews Lily about her path with psychedelics and her long, layered love affair with ketamine. We trace her story from teenage mushroom trips and a recently unearthed journal entry from that time, through a 30-year hero’s journey back to the knowing that her core identity is love.

From there, Lily opens up about her ongoing relationship with ketamine: how she works with psycholytic doses, why she journals during journeys, and the ways this medicine supports her healing as a mother, a trauma therapist, and a recovering avoidant-attacher. We explore memory, neuroplasticity, and how ketamine can become a recurring container for trauma renegotiation, reparenting, and rewriting old stories—especially when paired with practices like EMDR, hypnosis, mantra, cannabis, and Kundalini breathwork.

If you’re curious about ketamine as a sacrament (not just a clinical tool), about integration inside the journey, or about how to weave journaling and music into your own practice, this one’s for you.
