Chelsea and Suzanne are no strangers to grief and addiction. Each week, we aim to explore these multi-dimensional topics, diving deep into the full spectrum of recovery, support, and education. We aim to provide a safe, supportive space for our peers who grapple with similar pain and experiences. When it comes right down to it, we are ALL healing from things we do not speak about- and perhaps it’s time to change that

This Tuesday on the show, we speak to Aaron Akulis, host of The Peace on Drugs Podcast. Aaron and his guests discuss the war on drugs, namely "...the negative impact it has had on the world and the slow turning of the tide of public perception as more states legalize cannabis and decriminalize psychedelics and other drugs meant for personal use."
The Peace On Drugs is meant to inspire ongoing conversations on how to bring an end to this fight and "move into a new, peaceful world, with legal drugs and less addiction."
As someone who knew so little about the history, terminology, and logistics of drugs and addiction prior to starting this show, I was especially excited to talk to Aaron and gain some insight into everything he knows about the political and racial motivations which have propelled the War on Drugs for decades. He is a thoughtful, open, and very patient conversationalist, and we very much appreciate his perspective and knowledge. He did a beautiful job explaining why he feels decriminalization and legalization could be beneficial in myriad ways- we even touched a bit on the psychedelic movement that is evolving currently, and mentioned some pearls of wisdom from our late friend, David Poses.
Aaron's show is available wherever you listen, and I am positive he would love it if you gave it a five-star rating! Please find him on IG @peaceondrugspodcast
Suzanne and I cannot thank you enough for your ongoing support- we love you all and will see you next week. Until then, we wish you all peace-be well!
***The book Aaron mentions is The Untethered Soul by Michael A. Singer***
