Ep. 2: Netsuke and Mahler
Manage episode 501500623 series 3683477
Previously in Her Magic Mushroom Memoir: Chris, a broke and broken veteran living in his car, wrestled with the collapse of his life—his job, his family, and his writing. Across town, Dr. Lidiya Hart Johnson reflected on her past and the psychedelic revolution she helped spark. After collapsing near the Venice Pier, Lidiya was helped by Chris—two lives intersecting in a moment neither of them expected. Their story begins to unfold.
Now, Lidiya begins to confront what’s coming—not just a diagnosis, but the weight of unfinished stories, unresolved relationships, and a legacy she’s no longer sure she can control. She starts to draft the essentials of her life—the people, the science, the betrayals, and the miracles—and decides to track down the one person she believes can carry it forward: Christopher Wade. But finding him won’t be easy. And convincing him? Even harder. Still, Lidiya knows this much: some truths must be told before the last candle goes out.
