This led her to take a more integrative approach to health by incorporating the mind, body, and spirit. She encourages her patients to use self reflection in order to understand themselves more fully and practice self compassion. Dr. Tsai also shares some of her work with women to embrace their feminine energy and make time for celebrating themselves. She discusses the difference between masculine and feminine energies in all genders and the power of finding balance between these different parts of ourselves.

Dr. Michael Sapiro is a multifaceted professional working as a clinical psychologist, psychedelic psychotherapist, writer, meditation teacher, and researcher who previously lived as a Buddhist monk. Known for his transformative coaching, Dr. Sapiro works with a wide range of clients including police officers, first responders and those experiencing PTSD. He received training at the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS). As a faculty member at the Esalen Institute and a Fellow at the Institute of Noetic Sciences, Michael studies and teaches about transformation, expanded human capabilities, and psychedelic therapy. Dr. Sapiro recently collaborated with Dr. Julia Mossbridge of The Institute for Love and Time, conducting a study on time travel, hope, and love. He is known for his work as an integrative psychologist at the Boise Ketamine Clinic, offering Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy for veterans, first responders, and the community.
In today’s episode, host Shay Beider welcomes Dr. Michael Sapiro to delve into the correlations between truth, unconditional love and authenticity. Michael shares the importance of living an authentic life, as opposed to a misaligned existence dictated by conforming to other people's truths. The pair discuss finding balance, establishing healthy boundaries and using play to live a happy and aligned life. Additionally, Dr. Sapiro shares the profound effects of psychotherapy with psychedelics, aiding individuals in navigating their subconscious while on medication. He discusses the differences in his work with civilians versus first responders and sheds light on the dynamics of chronic stress and its effect on day to day life. Finally, they explore the impacts of generational trauma and how to understand and distinguish one's own responses from those inherited through family systems.
