On this podcast the Microdosing Institute team interviews guests who make important contributions to the microdosing field. With Mama De La Myco, we dive deep into the context in which we microdose and grow our relationship with sacred earth medicines: as parents, as children, as cyclical beings who are longing to remember their origins.
ABOUT OUR GUEST
Mikaela De La Myco was born into a first-generation italian, afro-caribbean and detribalized mexican family who lived in unceded Tongva territory, Los Angeles. Her education comes from years walking the paths of sacred intimacy work, temple arts, circle keeping, mexica ceremony, and womb care facilitation, all under the care of teachers and guides.
Mikaela now practices in occupied Cahuilla and Kumeyaay territory, San Diego, California. As a mushroom matriarch, she creates much needed education and spaces for unmet populations in the psychedelic renaissance, with an emphasis on mothers, bleeding people and family communities. Her primary focus is holding community based circles where people can journey through the dark amenta to uncover their ancestor codes, explore and rewrite trauma-wounds and make meaning with mushroom and other earth medicines.
