Episode 13 - All Of This Coping Was Killing Me, Now All Of This Healing Is Killing Me With Dr Gabrielle Pelicci

Layered Prescriptions with Dr. Kavoosi, MD

This episode features Dr Gabrielle Pelicci, Ph.D. She even says herself in the podcast that it's one of the things she does, not who she is! She is so much more than that, as are you.

In the podcast, she describes defining moments in her life that contribute to the layers of who she is today, including her childhood, a mystical experience when her mother passed away when she was 21, the importance of relating in order to heal & psychedelics. In particular, the subject of healing, as her book 'All Of this Healing Is Killing Me' had me reading it literally, whereas she has a unique perspective on what it meant to her. I personally put that title alongside Bessel Van Der Kolk, MD's ' The Body Keeps The Score' for best titles I've ever read.

Near to heart, the role women have played in our history as healers, how that was largely dismissed through the telling of stories through history, and how her dissertation seeked to inform and reilluminate spotlight onto this necessary part of who we are as a civilization stood out in both the podcast and her book.

Please enjoy the podcast and feel free to reach out to Gabrielle or myself if need be!
