Are you aware of the life-changing impact microdosing can have on your mental health?
In this episode of From Survivor to Thriver, we sit down with Leslie Draffin to discuss her transformative journey. Leslie shares how she left what she thought was her dream job due to its toll on her mental health and discovered the healing power of psychedelic medicine.
Join us as she explains what microdosing is, how to do it safely with professional guidance, and the healing potential of psychedelics. Leslie also reveals how she found her true passion in helping others through their psychedelic healing journeys.
Leslie Draffinis a somatic psychedelic guide & sensual embodiment coach focused on helping women embrace their bodies, sex, and psychedelics. While she was super successful on the outside -including being a TV news anchor making 6-figures -her inner world was a MESS. She suffered from anxiety, binge drank & starved herself so she didn’t have to feel her uncomfy feelings.
After years in therapy, and trying every spiritual modality she could think of, Leslie found psychedelic mushrooms. Today, she supports conscious women & menstruators who want to heal themselves & connect more deeply with the divine through intentional micro-dosing, womb reconnection, pleasure activation & cyclical living.
Leslie believes sacred Earth medicine has the power to bring us home to ourselves, awaken our authenticity, and heal the trauma locked within our subconscious

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
