#123 Learning Through Integration with Devon Brooks

The Well with Mandy Balak

In this episode, we discuss the power of graciousness, compassion and self-inquiry and the role it plays in becoming a heart-driven leader. Devon shares the many aids and tools she’s collected in her emotional, mental and spiritual toolbox from books to meditation and psychedelics and how it’s not how many tools you have but how you integrate them that counts.
