Ever wonder what it would be like to microdose? We’re asking Lindsay Roselle, Growth + Performance Coach and Founder + CEO of The MotherLoad Company, alllllll the questions you’ve been dying to know in today’s episode.
The world we live in today is filled with people struggling with anxiety, depression, creativity, ADHD, and motivation. Many of us are looking for ways to get out of our own heads and to make positive changes in our lives, and one potential solution is to look towards plant medicine for help.
Take a trip with us to learn the surprising benefits of microdosing psilocybin in this episode!
What is Psilocybin?
Psilocybin is a naturally occurring psychedelic compound found in certain mushrooms. that has been used for centuries to help people heal emotionally and spiritually. While it’s still illegal in some countries, the potential benefits of microdosing with psilocybin are becoming more widely accepted.
Lindsay’s journey with psilocybin began with a 90-day guided microdosing program that changed her life in many ways. It helped her to break free from the need for prescription medications like Ritalin, as well as helping her to break free from the “mommy wine culture” that has been glorified in recent years.
The power of microdosing with psilocybin lies in the intention that is put behind it. According to Lindsay, we must understand why we are taking it and what we hope to gain from it. For Lindsay, microdosing with psilocybin has helped her to improve her creativity, sleep better, and become more mindful of her mental and physical health.
In order to make microdosing with psilocybin more accessible and less “sketchy”, Lindsay and her business partner created a company called Inner Alchemy and then partnered with a company called Golden Rule, which provides supplements they trust.

Why Microdose?
As you probably know by now, we have trust issues with just about everything society tells us to do. In today’s world, pharmaceuticals are often seen as the go-to solution for many of our ailments, but what if there’s a better way, that doesn’t break the bank and involve a long list of side effects?
Plant medicine is the practice of using plants and herbs to restore balance and health to the body.
Microdosing with psilocybin is one form of plant medicine that can be used to treat a variety of conditions, including depression, anxiety, and chronic pain. It can also be used to help people break bad habits and patterns, or to simply increase creativity and productivity.
Plus, it’s much less expensive than pharmaceuticals and does not come with the same long list of side effects!
How to Microdose
Microdosing with psilocybin involves taking a very small dose of psilocybin, usually between 0.1 and 0.3 grams. This dose is small enough that most people will not feel the psychedelic effects of the psilocybin, but it’s still enough to start working on the subconscious mind. (Win-win!)
Prior to microdosing, be sure to choose the right protocol and dosage to ensure a safe and beneficial experience. You can learn more about this through Inner Alchemy’s microdosing education.
In this episode, Lindsay also advises to pair psilocybin with intention, inner work, and take breaks for self reflection. Intention setting prior to microdosing can be a powerful tool for personal growth, and she also recommends taking time to relax and unwind after you have taken your dose.
This can help to reduce stress and anxiety, and can also be a powerful tool for self-reflection.
When taking a microdose, it is important to be mindful of the effects and to pay attention to any physical or mental changes. Lindsay likes to keep a journal to record her thoughts and feelings, and to help her gain a better understanding of any patterns or insights that may emerge from her experiences.
Microdosing can be a powerful tool for finding clarity and gaining insight into one’s inner self. However, it is important to be aware of the potential risks associated with the practice. It is recommended to consult with a qualified healthcare professional before beginning a microdosing protocol. Additionally, please be mindful of the laws in your area regarding the use of psychedelic substances.
Overall, microdosing can be an effective way to explore non-traditional healing methods. With the right precautions, it can be a safe and effective way to gain insight into one’s inner self and experience the therapeutic benefits of psychedelics. We can’t wait to try it for ourselves and hear about your experience, too!
