Love, Loss & Hallucinations with Scott Schumaker
Love, Loss & Hallucinations with Scott Schumaker
Podcast Description
Welcome to Love, Loss and Hallucinations with Scott Schumaker — a podcast where we start with those three themes and see where the conversation takes us. This podcast is about the beauty and pain of being human, a podcast about finding strength and connection in vulnerability, a podcast to amplify the voices of those who have been through the ringer of life and have wisdom to share, and a podcast about the healing, evolution, and transformation that can happen when you’re willing to lean into the uncomfortable and the unknown.
I’ll be talking with therapists, coaches, world-class athletes, writers, musicians, artists, shamans, plant medicine guides, and everyday who’ve been touched by incredible moments of love, shattered by loss, or altered by the extraordinary.
If you’ve ever felt like your heart was going to explode from either love or loss; if you’re wanting deeper connection in this increasingly lonely world; if you’re curious about plant medicine, or you’ve experienced an out-of-the-ordinary vision...then you’ll feel at home here.

In this heartfelt episode of “Love, Loss, and Hallucinations,” I welcome Christy Turlington-Burns, founder and president of Every Mother Counts. Together we dive into themes of love, loss and resilience as Christy shares touching moments from her dad’s passing when she was in her late 20s, what she learned from witnessing his death (and her grandmother’s), how Eastern philosophy helped her understand it, and her dad’s unintentional lessons in feminism. We talk about the ins and outs of making a marriage work, the importance of giving yourself time to breath before substantial life changes, and how the biggest lessons can often be learned from the little things in life. Christy also shares her life-changing journey from international model to maternal health advocate, discussing the personal experiences that inspired her mission. Join us for an uplifting conversation that highlights the importance of empathy, connection, and advocacy in today’s world.
