We are extremely excited to have The Sweet Lillies in the studio with us this week on No Simple Road! The Sweet Lillies have incorporated all of their cumulative life-experiences into their music, their songwriting, and their artistry, crafting an uncommonly-beautiful style they have christened 'String Americana" - a nod to the band's all encompassing musical tastes and willingness to experiment with genres. In the midst of one of the craziest storms in decades in the Pacific Northwest the Sweet Lillies were sweet enough to come to the NSR studio to get cozy with us and have a conversation around the life of the band, learning and coming to terms with the need to speak their minds musically with grace and love, the prevalence of magick surrounding our lives, WHat maks us come out of our selves to share our art with abandon, and a ton more!

This week on the No Simple Road Weekly Rewind our Conductor bares his soul about some recent struggles he's been facing and not talking about up until now. Sometimes we face things that seem to pile up, one after the other, and don't give us time to integrate. The most important thing to remember is that simply talking these things through and getting them out of our heads and into the air is the beginning of the healing journey. This is a Family conversation and you're all welcome to a seat at our table.

We are super excited to have David Gebroe, host of the Discograffiti Podcast, as our guest on No Simple Road this week. Dave Gebroe has written, produced, and directed two feature films to date. The Homeboy, distributed worldwide by Urban Entertainment, marked his debut. His follow-up was the horror hit Zombie Honeymoon. After a successful festival run (Slamdance, Sitges, Hamptons, Torino, San Francisco International, and many others), Zombie Honeymoon was picked up for national distribution by Showtime, and internationally by Fabrication Films. It is enjoying a healthy life in over 45 countries, in addition to having experienced a successful North American theatrical release. In addition, Gebroe has served as manager to such indie music luminaries such as Jessica Pratt and La Sera, and has been a contributing music critic to such publications as the International Review of Music and LiveDaily over the years. This conversation is a masterclass in what it means to lay it all on the line, give it your all, go all in, go balls to the wall. David's frenetic schedule of releasing content is nothing short of incredible and his passion for music is only matched by his humor and his wit. We talk with him about creating the Discograffiti podcast, losing his co-host at a crucial moment, The Grateful Dead and why he thinks Brent was awful, keeping a pace to give folks a world to immerse themselves in, reasons his health has suffered at the hands of his podcast schedule, and a ton more!

This is an important episode for the No Simple Road community. This week on the show we have Charles Patti of My Self Wellness on the show. My Self Wellness empowers you on your health & wellness journey by combining the healing benefits of ketamine with new lifestyle practices for a full mental reset.  It was not until Charles began to incorporate psychedelics in a therapeutic way that he began to see a transformation taking place within himself. There is a connection to healing trauma and re-wiring our nervous system. Psychedelics can be a useful tool when done in a safe set and setting, and incorporating integrative practices to assist you in the long term.  With this in mind, Charles set out to create a psychedelic medicine wellness center that differed from the others. With heart-centeredness first and foremost and working outward from a deep need to help people, My Self Wellness manifested! We talk with Charles about: His struggles with his weight, addiction to opiates, and how he overcame through a DMT journey. How he knew he was the one that was supposed to start My Self Wellness. The synchronous meeting of Dr. Ferber and how he came to be the center's head Psychiatrist. How Ketamine is being used to help people overcome addictions, PTSD, anxiety, and other mental health issues. The reason 'set and setting' are so important and how My Self Wellness differs from other Ketamine clinics. Charles' mission to help raise the consciousness of the planet through helping people heal themselves one at a time. His perspective on how the clinic managed to stay open even through the challenges faced in 2020. ... and so much more!
