The following years brought her heart palpitations, blurry vision, sensitive touch, hair loss, eczema, depression, anxiety n' loads more. She's since had the 'toxic bags' removed - and she openly and bravely shares her rollercoaster experience here on the podcast. In this episode, we travel through Rikki's life - from Woodland to living in Hawaii, L.A. and now Canada, we talk about her life as a hockey player's girlfriend, our favorite music, our first phones, and our growing small town mind perspective. Rikki and I discuss re-connecting to the body physically and mentally and we talk anti-depressants, protective scar-tissue, pilates, our societies relationship with plastic surgery, the imprint that social media leaves on our minds, and stroking the ego with outward appearance. \r\nWe light up a fire section on the mind-body connection at the gym, intrusive thoughts, OCD, feeling bad about bad thoughts, panic disorders, and watching too much True Crime shit. We get ethereal... casually and playfully diving into things like - ghost stories, meditations, past lives, evolution, aliens, ghosts, consciousness, the ocean, alternate realities, and of course dinosaurs. \r\nWe share our reiki and Medium experiences and send it off with some freaky tales.\r\nRikki and I had a blast doing this one. She's dauntlessly courageous for sharing the personal ups and downs of her human voyage and I'm massively grateful to hold any space for that sort of thing to be heard.

No, but love your body for what it is” \r\n\r\n“You really have to find that healthy relationship with how you look and what you eat and...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/-wIoXe_lBsAgcqPoSfBhM15bJ_HDaEzvBoo-VmbjHdI/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9kNTcw/NzdjNjA4YWMzZmUy/MTRjODYzNGE4OGRk/YTY2OC5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
