A former church girl's search for a new spiritual home

They take us on their journey to find spirituality that includes the dining room dungeon of a dominatrix, buddhist monks taking magic mushrooms, and the pulpit of a Pentecostal church. This episode is a collaboration with our friends at LAist Studios. Special thanks to the Ferriss, UC Berkeley's Psychedelic Journalism program for their support.
