Teach Me or Heal Me
Welcome to Teach Me or Heal Me, a podcast about the moments that break us, the medicine that finds us, and the journeys that reshape us.
Here, you'll hear anonymous voices, mostly veterans but not exclusively, sharing their real stories of pain, resilience, and transformation.
These are people who found their way to psychedelics not out of curiosity, but out of necessity. Trauma, grief, disconnection, and the search for something that could make it bearable or simply meaningful, again.
They speak candidly about what led them to these substances, what happened during those deeply personal journeys, and what life has looked like after.
We don't offer advice. We offer space. These stories aren't told to convince, they're told to connect. Whether you're here to understand, feel seen, or simply to listen... welcome.

Guest #2 served in the Navy and is a career firefighter. He's dedicated his life to serving his country and community but found himself spiraling after divorce. A lifetime of pain and struggle began to impact every relationship he had until he no longer wanted to participate in the game of life. He decided one day to reach out to his veteran community and found hope through an opportunity like none he'd ever imagined himself taking. On the other side of that opportunity, he found peace and love for himself again. This is his story.
