Ayahuasca isn’t for everyone. But it’s for me and has been the platform of my entrepreneurial career for the past 10 years. All the trials and tribulations I unpacked in part 1 of the solocast lead me to the moment of my first Ayahuasca experience, and my life’s been completely different ever since. Welcome to part 2 of the journey: after ayahuasca. In this episode, you’ll hear how I filled gaps in my life I was unconscious to, rebuilt relationships with family, determined my purpose, developed my vision, and started multiple businesses with Ayahuasca serving as a container for each step along the way.

Catherine was hooked on travel early, deferring a typical career path to travel the world with her partner during her 20’s. It was motivating to hear how much diligence it took to pull it off.

Throughout our journeys, we almost always have a sense that something greater is calling. That calling led me to become an expat.
