429. SOLO: The Wildest Interactions I’ve Ever Had With My Followers, How Being an Influencer Has Changed Over the Years, Thoughts On Polyamory, Plant Medicine & Parasocial Relationships

In today’s solo episode, I’m diving into the wildest — and I mean wildest — interactions I’ve ever had with my followers. I’m pulling back the curtain on what it’s really like to live a life online, especially in this new era where parasocial relationships blur all kinds of boundaries. If you’ve ever wondered what it actually feels like to be on the receiving end of the internet’s projections, praise, and projections-in-disguise-as-praise... this one's for you.

We also get into how being an influencer has changed over the years — especially post-pandemic, post-algorithmic collapse, and mid-spiritual awakening. I share my unfiltered thoughts on how the space has evolved, what I’ve outgrown, what I still love, and where I see it all heading next. Spoiler: it has a lot to do with authenticity, nervous system safety, and energetic boundaries.

Plus, we go there — polyamory (the Aubrey Marcus pod, yep we’re going there), plant medicine journeys, online judgment culture, and what happens when people think they know everything about you from what you choose to share. This episode is very stream of consciousness and fun. If you're into behind-the-scenes storytelling with a little philosophical depth, press play and let's unpack it all.
