One thing I imagine we can all agree on when it comes to the realm of psychedelics & plant medicines is that it is up to each one of us to BE the change, so to speak, within this realm. For a subject that has been controversial for so long & has the ability to offer so much support in the human experience when done in the proper context or do so much damage when done without proper awareness of the potency associated with these medicines, it is by each of us showing the world what conscious, responsible consumption of these medicines looks like that we can begin to shift the narrative more & more. Todays guest on the show is a man who has made it his life’s work to be at the forefront of the change that is so desperately needed within the long held mainstream narrative surrounding these sacred allies. He is the founder of not one, but two psychedelic focused companies, including Synthesis, which is focused on allowing individuals to have direct experiences with medicines such as psilocybin truffles in safe containers to gain insight on their experience of life & Third Wave, which is focused on building an educational platform to ensure psychedelic substances become responsibly integrated into our cultural framework. Currently, Third Wave offers long-form psychedelic guides, online microdosing programs, an industry-best network of clinics and retreat providers & an incredible podcast to allow individuals to continue learning & gaining awareness around this space & in todays episode, we will be diving into his experiences with these medicines, what led him to getting into the business side of psychedelic medicines, what his vision is for the future of conscious, responsible psychedelic use & much, much more.
