Navigating life's transitions isn't easy, but it's often in those moments of hardship that we discover who we truly are. In this episode, Sandy Lutton shares her deeply personal journey of self-discovery after facing a career shift at 50, the unraveling of her marriage, and profound loss. From embracing authenticity and vulnerability to healing through psychedelics, Sandy reveals how embracing the discomfort of change led her to profound insights and a renewed sense of purpose. This conversation is an invitation to those standing at a crossroads—to confront limiting beliefs, embrace personal transformation, and find deeper alignment with their true selves.

Sandy's story is more than just one of personal growth; it's a roadmap for anyone seeking purpose after loss and transition. As the founder of Opal Retreats and a visionary entrepreneur, Sandy brings unique insights into the power of community, storytelling, and spiritual alignment. Her experiences—from corporate success to the depths of personal rock bottom—offer relatable lessons on resilience, courage, and the transformative potential of embracing one's authentic path. Her vulnerability opens the door for meaningful reflection and empowers listeners to pursue their own journeys of healing and self-discovery.
