Liquid Gold: The Forbidden Medicine Within
What if one of the most powerful healing technologies available to humanity has been hidden in plain sight—inside the body itself?
In this profound conversation, Claire welcomes Megan Macdonald of Expansion Healing, researcher with Dr. Group’s Global Healing Institute and a leading voice in the modern reclamation of Shivambu (urine therapy).
But this is not simply a conversation about health.
It is a conversation about shame. Scarcity. Self-rejection. Control systems. And the sacred intelligence of the human body.
Together they explore:
Why disgust has been used historically as a tool of control
How urine therapy can restore nervous system trust
The spiritual and emotional healing many experience
Water as memory, intelligence, and living code
Why this practice feels ancient… and futuristic
The link between self-love and self-sourcing
Why the body may contain more wisdom than we were taught
This episode is an invitation into deeper waters.

Megan Macdonald is a researcher, teacher, and facilitator whose work sits at the crossroads of embodied practice, ancestral wisdom, and lived transformation. With a doctorate in performance studies and a background in ritual and theatre, she’s spent years exploring how belief takes shape in the body—what helps us thrive, and what keeps us stuck.
Her path led to the world of self-healing, where she now works with individuals and groups to help them reconnect with their bodies, their intuition, and the deeper intelligence of nature. Megan’s work focuses on Shivambhu (Urine Therapy), the Self-Healing Dalian Method, and integrative practices to reduce inflammation and deepen the connection to self.
Through coaching, a vibrant membership community, and regular teaching on YouTube, she offers support for those walking a path of deep healing and spiritual growth. Her approach blends grounded research with personal experience, making space for the sacred, the scientific, and a lot of humour.
Megan leads the Urine Therapy Research Initiative (UTRI), a project dedicated to gathering stories, evidence, and insights from practitioners around the world. Forming a bridge between user experience and scientific study.
