Dr. Fred speaks with Casey Hardison, who proactively describes himself as "a carbon-based bipedal life form committed to the possibility of passion, love, light and unity for all people." Casey is a chemist known for his work and advocacy for the advancement of entheogens (psychedelics). Growing up the son of an alcoholic father, Casey began using alcohol and other drugs at a young age, and after seeking support, became sober for eight years. He then discovered LSD, which led to a profound and revolutionary shift to his view of sobriety, drugs, and life itself. Casey shares the dramatic story of his first experience with LSD and his declaration to enroll in college and study these often misunderstood and underappreciated substances. Dr. Fred's mind-expanding conversation with Casey touches the following areas: How LSD led Casey to the spiritual awakening promised by the 12 Steps Discovering the urgency of stewarding and caring for mother earth and all her relations How Casey ended his self-identification with the "once an addict, always an addict" mindset "Toxic shame" as the real "demon" in Casey's life Are psychedelics produced in a lab profoundly different from "plant medicine"? The distinctions of the Landmark Forum The role of mindset and setting when approaching entheogens Why Casey says the English language contains "semantic spooks" from the past Shifting the context from psychology to ontology and epistemology Taking radical responsibility for the things we think and say to ourselves and each other Casey's arrest in the UK for making LSD, 2C-B, and DMT, and how he became a Constitutional scholar The legal defense that made Casey a "folk hero around the world" Why Casey will be running for President of the United States in 2024 (really!)   Episode Length: 01:05:12   CASEY HARDISON'S RESOURCES Casey's research published in the MAPS bulletin https://maps.org/news-letters/v10n2/10211har.html   ALSO MENTIONED ON TODAY'S EPISODE Healing the Shame that Binds You by John Bradshaw (book) https://www.amazon.com/Healing-Shame-Binds-Recovery-Classics/dp/0757303234   Landmark Worldwide https://www.landmarkworldwide.com WELCOME TO HUMANITY RESOURCES Podcast Website >  http://www.welcometohumanity.net/podcast PURCHASE DR.

Programming Note: Dr. Fred & Sam Morris recorded today's episode for their forthcoming In*Sanity podcast. Rather than wait to release this super-inspiring conversation through In*Sanity, we decided to share it with the WtH family right away. It's that good. Enjoy!  Today's episode features the most famous cosmetic dentist in the world, yet this is NOT an episode about dentistry. Bill Dorfman grew up poor, with the odds stacked against him. How did he go on to achieve such incredible success? Today's conversation explores just that, as Dr. Dorfman shares the experiences and mindsets that shaped him into the man he is today.  Affectionately known as “America's Dentist,” Dr. Dorfman is widely recognized world-wide as a leading dentist who is responsible for creating smiles for many of Hollywood's brightest stars. In fact, Dr. Dorfman has become a star in his own right as the featured dentist on the hit ABC series, “Extreme Makeover,” where he performed amazing dental transformations on the show's participants as well as a recurring guest co-host on the new Emmy Winning daytime CBS talk show, “The Doctors.” In addition, Dr. Dorfman is a world-renowned lecturer & author of the best-selling cosmetic dentistry book, ‘The Smile Guide' and the NY Times bestseller ‘Billion Dollar Smile.' The innovative & accomplished doctor is also renowned in his field as an energy-brimming inventor & brilliant entrepreneur who has brought award-winning innovations to the world of dentistry. Occasional co-host Sam Morris joins Dr. Fred to discuss the following with Dr. Dorfrman: "LEARN so you can EARN and then RETURN" (Dr. Dorfman's mantra for life) The life-altering decision Bill made at the start of his career Why you shouldn't “take” opportunities (and what to do instead)  How Dr. Dorfman grew his business through participating in ABC's ‘Extreme Makeover' Skillfully avoiding answering questions you don't want to answer Continuous learning to stay on top of one's game “Successful people do the things unsuccessful people are not willing to do” Why Bill NEVER fails...EVER! How to get really good at doing something the WRONG way!

In a day and age where technology rules the selling world, authenticity and trust have taken a “back seat” in the sales process. Today's guest puts trust back into selling in such an elegant and natural way, that the truth quickly emerges between seller and buyer, so the painful and arduous “chasing” process no longer has to happen to make a sale. Ari Galper is the World's #1 Authority on Trust-Based Selling and is one the most experienced sales growth advisors in the world. He is the creator of Unlock The Game®, a completely new revolutionary sales approach that overturns the notion of selling as we know it today. With clients in over 35 countries, Ari's global sales systems have become the most successful Trust-Based Selling systems of our time. Ari has been featured in CEO Magazine, SkyNews, Forbes, INC Magazine and the Australian Financial Review. In today's episode, Ari shares his revolutionary sales process with Dr. Fred, as they discuss: Bringing authenticity to the dysfunctional world of selling.   How Ari's son inspired his approach to sales Framing sales like a 'doctor - patient relationship' Why prospects must take ownership of their problem before you can sell to them The critical importance of the right mindset and trust-based languaging Breaking trust by attempting to move a sale forward before the person is ready Why people aren't comfortable revealing their truth Losing the sale at "hello" Building Trust at the beginning so you aren't chasing them at the end The problem it's NOT your market, product, or prospects...it's YOU! How Ari's clients achieve 100% conversion of all qualified clients Shifting your prospect's thinking by changing your own approach Going beneath the "iceberg" with prospects How traditional sales can be dehumanizing   Episode Length: 01:00:50   ARI GALPER'S RESOURCES Website > https://unlockthegame.com Book > 'Unlock The Sales Game: New Trust-Based Selling Strategies To Finally Create Your Sales Breakthrough'  https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00W2U3ZE4 Free Course > https://unlockthegame.com/webinar   KEY SALES QUESTIONS "Can you tell me a little more about that?" "Is this a priority for you to solve once and for all? Or is it something you have to live with for a while and let it go, and you're okay either way?" "Where do you think we should go from here?" (use at the end of a sales call) "If it would be okay with you, I'd be happy to walk you through what my framework is, the roadmap for how I help clients that have the exact problem that you have.

Dr. Fred is joined on the show today by friend and fellow psychiatrist, Dr. Brandon Erdos. Professionally, Dr. Erdos helps clients build concrete skills to move beyond traumatic experiences and difficult emotions and restore feelings of normalcy in daily life. His approach is based in psychodynamic, psychoanalytic, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Today's episode, however, has little to do with psychiatry, and instead, explores common areas of interest between two friends, including personal development, cultivating the art of listening, the captive power of rhythm, and more.  On today's show, you'll hear Dr. Fred and Dr. Erdos discuss: Why Dr. Erdos refers to himself as a "smart rat" The distinction between predicting and creating the future How improvisation within a structure applies to both music and life Enjoying the journey Why listening can be "dangerous" Learning to listen to one's listening The intersection of listening and drumming Why being willing to be "bad" at something is "good" Being willing to play The primal nature of drumming   Episode Length: 00:49:12   BRANDON ERDOS'S RESOURCES Zencare Profile > https://zencare.co/provider/psychiatrist/brandon-erdos Contact > brandon.erdos at gmail dot com   ALSO MENTIONED ON TODAY'S SHOW Landmark Education > https://www.landmarkworldwide.com Kenny Aronoff - https://kennyaronoff.com Road To Hana (Maui, Hawaii) > https://roadtohana.com/ Ringo Starr > https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ringo_Starr Mitch Mitchell > https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitch_Mitchell Neal Peart > https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neil_Peart In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed (Allman Brothers Band) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SZlz9WKccE WELCOME TO HUMANITY RESOURCES Podcast Website >  http://www.welcometohumanity.net/podcast PURCHASE DR.

Today's guest, Alex Iglecia, describes himself as someone who "guides beautiful beings who are here to create something good, speak truth, lead, teach and transform as they walk their own path and trust their epic life no matter what anyone else is doing."Having been a high achiever, Alex experienced intense breakdowns in nearly every aspect of life that helped get him aligned and authentic: body, marriage, finances, soul & spirit. Well before midlife crisis! A former NASA engineer and Ninja-Yogi turned Body-Mind Alchemist, Alex has a Masters in Conscious Evolution and lives deeply for the adventure of being.
