From Achievement Armor to Embodied Living with Julie Cyvonne and Lisa Manzo

In this episode of The Phoenix Mind with Lisa Manzo, coach, facilitator, and mentor Julie Cyvonne shares how she left a successful legal career to build a life that actually feels good to live. After doing everything “right” on paper and still waking up numb, Julie realized her achievement armor was protecting her from pain while also blocking joy. Her turning point came through deep inner work and the discovery of psilocybin as a catalyst for change, not a cure.

Julie recognized a missing piece in the psychedelic space: integration. Since then, she has guided more than 300 people through mentorship, retreats, and group programs that blend science, nervous system literacy, and radically honest support. Her work focuses on helping people integrate transformation into everyday life so growth shows up on an ordinary Tuesday afternoon. This conversation explores identity, feeling again, and creating lives we do not need to escape from.
