| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Spirit Gym. |
| 0:02.0 | This episode is about health, but it's not about kale smoothies or intermittent fasting. |
| 0:08.0 | Not because those things don't matter, but because Paul and his guests are talking about the stuff that actually matters. |
| 0:15.0 | Like, why you can be the healthiest person at the gym and still be miserable, or that you can be as enlightened as you |
| 0:21.7 | want, but if you're an asshole, what does it matter? Paul's three guests have each walked through |
| 0:26.9 | their own dark night of the soul. Ryan went deep into plant medicines, initiations and rites of |

| 1:46.6 | Just raw truth from guys who've walked through the fire and come out on the other side with something real to share. |
