My guest today is Amy Charlesworth. Amy is a 16-year military veteran and advocate for mental health and healing. After serving all over the world, including a tour in Afghanistan and more, she faced the challenge of transitioning to civilian life, grappling with anxiety, depression, and other mental health struggles. In 2024, she experienced a life-changing healing entheogenic retreat through the non-profit Illuminating Heroes, and now dedicates herself to helping veterans and first responders find similar healing. Based in Los Angeles, Amy is the host of the "QNAMY Show", a YouTube/Podcast exploring mental health, plant medicines, and spiritual awakenings. She holds an MBA, is a speaker, charity board member, and works in the YouTube/Podcast industry. In this episode we discuss mental health, plant medicine, healing and women in the military.

In this episode you will learn:
1. The power of plant medicine as a tool for healing mental health issues.
2. How important it is to have women in and the role that women play in the military.
3. Why it's so important to be surrounded and have the support of community for those who are transitioning out of the military.
“Right now the conversation in our society is always focused specifically on the fact that women shouldn't be in the military because we're fighting in combat. First of all, that's ridiculous. That's absolutely ridiculous, especially like our modern war fighting tactics. We're using drones these days. There's all kinds of equipment that we have, safety equipment.” - 00:03:59
“For me, courage now is it's honesty, it's integrity. It's like living by a moral code. It's a compass. It's not being afraid to do the right thing." 00:26:11
“I definitely feel like the most important factor, period, about healing is your ability to turn around and help someone else heal. ” 01:00:29
