In today’s episode, Lauren and Courtney get real about one of the most unexpected, transformative, and honestly, what-were-we-thinking adventures they’ve ever been on: a psychedelic healing retreat in the jungles of Costa Rica. Yep, two suburban moms went full-on plant medicine.
They’re talking about their experience with Ayahuasca—the world's most powerful psychedelic—and how they ended up at Soltara, a renowned retreat center that’s equal parts spiritual bootcamp and emotional rollercoaster. Spoiler alert: they Googled it over lunch while microdosing. Naturally.
Here’s what you’ll hear:
🌿 What exactly ayahuasca is and why it’s considered “plant medicine”😬 The intense (and surprisingly emotional) prep before the trip—including getting off medication, ditching caffeine, and yes, turning in contraband🤢 Vomitivos. (It’s exactly what it sounds like.)😱 Lauren’s full-blown panic attack and the unexpected healing that followed🧠 The deep mental, emotional, and physical effects before they even took the medicine🧳 Why they packed caftans, cold brew, and crystals (and what got confiscated)🔮 How this experience reminded them why energy matters—and how it’s all connected to the work they do at Moon & StoneIf you've ever wondered what draws someone to psychedelics for healing—or what it actually feels like to surrender control and dive deep into your own soul—this is the episode for you.
Heads up: this is part one of a two-part series. Next time, they’ll dish on the actual ceremonies, what came up during the medicine journeys, and how they managed to integrate that jungle energy back into regular ol’ life.

Lauren & Court -
Welcome to Let’s Get the Neighbors Talking! 🌟 We’re Courtney and Lauren—co-founders of Moon & Stone, crystal lovers, and your new go-to for real talk on energy, healing, and living authentically.
In this first episode, we’re spilling the tea on how we went from stressed-out moms juggling all the things to starting a business that’s all about raising vibrations (and unapologetically carrying crystals). Expect lots of laughs, a little weirdness, and maybe a tear or two—because Lauren made Courtney cry, and it was hilariously uncomfortable for everyone.
✨ We’ll dive into how Moon & Stone was born, why meditation and crystals changed our lives, and how we embraced being called “weird” (spoiler: it’s actually a compliment).
If you’ve ever felt like there’s something more out there or just need a supportive space to explore the unconventional, this podcast is for you.
🎧 Hit play, grab your crystals, and let’s get weird—because life’s more fun when you laugh (and maybe cry) along the way. 💫
