Sex, Drugs, & Soul
Hey there! I’m Kristin Birdwell, and welcome to the Sex, Drugs, & Soul podcast! I’m an author, seeker, and mystic exploring where the sacred meets the everyday. For years, I thought my spiritual journey had to be separate from my human experiences, but what I’ve learned is that true growth happens when we embrace both.
This podcast is a space where I bring you along on that journey. Whether I’m flying solo or chatting with fellow seekers, self-healers, and sensual explorers, we’ll dive into the sweet spot where spirituality, sexuality, and self-expression meet. It’s all about living fully, embracing every part of who we are, and having some fun along the way.
If you’re ready to explore, expand, and embrace all that you are, come on this adventure with me. I can’t wait to share this with you!

50. Working On Turning My Nikes Into Slippers with C.R. Herro
This is my most vulnerable episode to date... My ex and I discuss why we live in different states and explore three pillars of happiness: self-care, boundaries, and community.
I also share insights and stories about how I felt as if I'd fumbled the gift of our relationship and decided to start ketamine-assisted psychotherapy.
We explore...
- Self-care, boundaries, and community as pillars for mental health, happiness, and well-being
- Healing past wounds to build healthier relationships
- Attachment styles and how they can influence our behavior and how we form or maintain relationships
- How past experiences can influence our tendency to gravitate towards chaotic or avoidant relationships
- Communication of emotional depth
- Making conscious choices and actions for personal growth and fulfillment.
- Reparenting and inner child healing
