I LOVE music festivals. And I’m not shy about it. Neither is my guest, Joe Cole, who has averaged 15 festivals per year since 2010 (sans 2020, of course). It’s all about the energy, the creativity, the music, the community, and just the outright FUN. There’s no wonder in 2019, an estimated 30 million people attended a major festival in just the U.S. alone.

If you’re interested in learning more about the types of festivals there are, why they keep drawing people like Joe and I back year after year, and want to take a trip down memory lane on some of our favorite festival moments, this is the episode for you!

About Joe: Joe Cole is a creative strategist, artist, dance music enthusiast, Burner, reader, traveler (never a tourist), and most of my days are good hair days. His artist ethos is “Inspire joy” and his life motto is “Risk everything.” He’s trying to figure out what’s next for him while touring the country in a campervan. It almost never rains on him and he has an award-winning guacamole recipe.

The lovely Lauren Bable is this week’s guest on TRIP ON THIS. In this episode, Lauren shares her story about navigating some difficult experiences when she first moved to LA from Australia, followed by a major health scare when she learned she had a brain tumor five years ago.

Though thankfully physically recovered now, those who have dealt with any serious health scares or trauma know the feelings that come with those events can stay long after the experience is over. Lauren discusses how her recent psychedelic trips were life changing experiences for her and has brought a whole new level of clarity and ACTION to her healing journey.

Jordan Kahana is a true adventurer at heart. Such an adventurer in fact, that the universe came along and dropped two stray puppies in his lap during a road trip in Sedona that changed the trajectory of his life. The universe really does work in mysterious ways.

In this ep, Jordan tells his story about how he came upon his two pups, Zeus and Sedona, and how his life became a wild ride after that creating content and roadtripping around the U.S. with his two pups in tow. But as we know, there’s another type of adventure out there — the inward exploration one experiences on a psychedelic. We share psychedelic stories and have some laughs about human nature and some of the odd quirks that can happen during a psychedelic trip.
