In this monologue, Shay Rowbottom describes reaching a personal low point she calls "rock bottom," which prompted a desperate plea for help and led her to explore ayahuasca, a psychedelic plant medicine. She recounts meeting a contact through LinkedIn who introduced her to ayahuasca, noting how the practice is becoming more mainstream. Shay explains that ayahuasca induces visions and hallucinations but also offers profound healing, contrasting it with her earlier recreational drug use (mushrooms, ecstasy) that lacked a respected ceremonial context. She dismisses common fears—such as death or extreme physical side effects—by acknowledging that while one might "shit your pants," death is unlikely. She frames rock bottom as a turning point that makes people more open to coaches and new perspectives, emphasizing surrender and openness as essential for healing.

Chapters

So I'm in this place of like rock bottom, total surrender. I'm just like, what the fuck, God, like help me or what? And I met this guy through LinkedIn actually, who introduced me to this idea of this plant medicine called ayahuasca. Here we go. Yeah, now here we go. Ayahuasca. So isn't it funny that it's like becoming so mainstream? I had a client the other day ask me about it. He's like, what is that jungle thing? Ayahuasca? Please. I walk out like, oh, even you know about this now. Okay, cool, cool, cool. So, so yeah, like for those listening who don't know, ayahuasca is a psychedelic medicine. You know, it can cause hallucinations, visions, but it's also very, very healing and it's really, really next level, at least for me. I'll speak for myself. Like I had done mushrooms in my past. I had done ecstasy and I experimented with these drugs, but nothing ever like in a respected ceremonial, like, medicinal setting until the ayahuasca. And, um, I just, I just, I wasn't scared anymore, you know. You hear these crazy stories like, oh, ayahuasca, like, you'll die or you'll shit your pants. Yeah, I mean, you can definitely shit your pants. You won't die, you might shit your pants, but I, I didn't care anymore. And that's actually like the beauty of being at rock bottom. A lot of people don't realize, like, rock bottom, like, you feel like you're gonna die and like life's stalks, it's like, that's good. That's like your turning point. If it can't get any worse, good. Because a lot of times people who are in that place surrender to healing more. They're more open to listen to coaches and listen to people they might previously have been like, well, who the fuck are you? Because they're just like, okay, I'm desperate now. Like, I need answers.
