In this episode, Joe Moore sits down with Dr. Jason Konner, a longtime oncologist who recently left his full-time clinical role at Memorial Sloan Kettering to devote himself to the emerging intersection of cancer care and psychedelics. Dr Konner shares how, after more than two decades treating people, he hit a wall. The accumulated grief, constant exposure to death, and intensity of oncology left him deeply burned out, though he didn't have that language for it at the time. A chance moment in a yoga class, overhearing someone say "ayahuasca retreat" just before he was scheduled for hernia surgery, became the turning point. Within a week, he was in the jungle. That first week with ayahuasca, followed later by work with mushrooms, "absolutely transformed" his life. His fear of death lifted. The burnout he hadn't even recognized in himself was both revealed and relieved. When he returned to his practice, Konner describes feeling like he suddenly had a "superpower": he could stay present, connected, and compassionate with patients facing advanced disease without collapsing under the emotional weight. He and Joe explore what this third path looks like: not the classic binary between either hardening and distancing as self-protection, or staying open-hearted and getting shattered. Instead, psychedelics helped him hold deep relationship with patients and families while maintaining inner stability and meaning. This opened space for authentic conversations about spirituality, fear, grief, and what it means to live with (or die from) cancer. From there, Dr Konner zooms out to critique the broader oncology system: The lack of training and support for oncologists around their own emotional and existential load, How little space there is for relational work even though it's central to healing, Why many support groups and standard psychiatric approaches (like reflexively prescribing SSRIs) often miss the mark for people dealing with cancer, How caregivers, partners, family members, and others are deeply affected but rarely truly supported. Joe and Jason then dig into psychedelics and oncology as a frontier: easing existential distress in patients with terminal cancer, the neglected suffering of caregivers, the potential role of psychedelics in helping people relate differently to death, and what it might mean for ICU use, aggressive end-of-life interventions, and overall healthcare costs if more people could make decisions from a place of peace rather than terror. Dr Konner also shares a striking ovarian cancer case that hinted at powerful immune changes after shamanic work, and why he believes we need new research paradigms that can honor the integrity of retreat and ceremonial settings while still learning from them. Finally, he talks about his early-stage project, Psychedelic Oncology, and his hope that the first wave of change starts with clinicians themselves becoming more psychedelic-literate—and, where appropriate, doing their own inner work—so better options can eventually reach the people who need them most.

Dr. Joe Tafur and Natasha Pentin spoke with Canadian adult and pediatric neurologist Dr. Evan Cole Lewis to explore how epilepsy, trauma, and brain networks intertwine. We discuss pediatric epilepsy, cannabis for seizures, Functional Neurological Disorders (FND), and emerging psychedelic-assisted therapy treatments. Dr. Lewis talks about the differences between structural brain injury and brain “software” disruption, shining light on the world of trauma-based neurological symptoms. Dr. Lewis holds a clinical appointment as Adjunct Assistant Professor in the Department of Pediatrics at the Hospital for Sick Children and at the University of Toronto. Currently practicing at North Toronto Neurology and Homeward Therapy, Dr. Lewis focuses on epilepsy, brain injury, concussion and post-concussion symptoms, functional neurological disorders, and the therapeutic use of cannabis and psychedelics in these conditions.You can see more of Dr. Lewis's work here:  YouTube Website North Toronto Neurology Psychedelic Therapy (Homeward Therapy - coming soon).

In this amazing episode, I'm joined by Julian Bermudez for a deep conversation about trauma, healing, and the role psychedelics can play in our transformation. Julian is a therapist and guide who helps people unwind survival patterns, integrate trauma, and explore identity through somatic awareness, meditation, and honest self-inquiry. In this episode we explore: ✨ The roots of trauma and how it shows up in our present lives ✨ Common survival patterns such as disconnection and unworthiness ✨ How to begin recognizing and healing these patterns ✨ Psychedelics as tools for self-inquiry, neurogenesis, and expanded awareness ✨ The mycelial network, nature's intelligence, and what it teaches us about interconnectedness ✨ Why microdosing and integration therapy can be as powerful as big psychedelic journeys ✨ The importance of initiation, presence, and remembering our natural state This episode offers profound insights into the healing journey and how we can return to wholeness.

This conversation delves into the intersection of faith and parapsychology, exploring how supernatural experiences challenge traditional Christian beliefs. The speakers discuss their academic backgrounds, the implications of parapsychological phenomena, and the materialistic worldview that often dominates modern thought. They also examine various types of supernatural occurrences, such as hauntings and poltergeists, and share personal experiences and case studies that highlight the complexities of understanding the spiritual realm. This conversation delves into the complex relationship between hallucinogens, spirituality, and Christianity. The speakers explore the historical and ethical implications of using psychedelics, the potential for these substances to open up spiritual experiences, and the role of Christianity in interpreting these phenomena. They discuss the importance of understanding the spiritual realm, the ethical considerations surrounding parapsychology, and how these experiences can be integrated into a Christian worldview. The conversation also touches on the Tao and logos, emphasizing the universal truths that connect various belief systems.Matthew Maguire: mattmcguire.net

In this episode of Punk Therapy, Dr. T and the Truth Fairy welcome psychotherapist and trauma specialist Sean to the show to discuss the work he does in bridging clinical neuroscience and psychedelic-assisted therapy. They explore what's missing from the current psychedelic resurgence, focusing on dissociation, structural dissociation, and the neurobiology of trauma.   Sean shares how his background in both underground plant medicine and clinical psychotherapy revealed the need for somatic, trauma-informed practices throughout psychedelic medicine spaces. Dr. T, Truth, and Sean unpack how attachment wounds, developmental trauma, and embodied empathy can influence the healing process. They examine how relational connection is the key to sustainable transformation.  From understanding the right brain and left brain hemispheres and function to exploring the default mode network, the amygdala, and the hippocampus, the conversation offers a fascinating deep dive into how the brain, body, and consciousness all interact within healing. The dangers of high-dose psychedelic work without proper preparation, the importance of tracking the nervous system of clients, and investigating how integration and relational repair form the heart of psychedelic therapy are vital parts of the discussions held by Dr. T, Truth Fairy, and guest Sean.“The wound was formed in relationship, and it must be repaired in relationship.” - Sean__Contact Punk Therapy:Patreon: Patreon.com/PunkTherapyWebsite: PunkTherapy.comEmail: info@punktherapy.com Contact Truth Fairy: Email: Truth@PunkTherapy.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This episode of Mindrolling is a collection of some of the most potent teachings from Raghu's conversations with experts and researchers in the field of psychedelics.In this Mindrolling Anthology:Clip 1 (Ep. 348) – We begin with a clip from one of Raghu's conversations with Rick Doblin, who is a leader of the current psychedelic renaissance. They discuss grief, PTSD, and the role of psychedelics in trauma processing.Clip 2 (Ep. 497) – Next up is a snippet from Raghu's talk with Dr. Sylvestre Quevedo, a psychedelic researcher who has practiced medicine for over 40 years. They explore how ketamine fits into the picture of psychedelics and share stories of their own experiences.Clip 3 (Ep. 505) – We move on to a discussion with Paul Austin, an entrepreneur, author, and coach. He and Raghu talk about how psychedelics can help us remember who we truly are and the potential they hold for healing relationships.Clip 4 (Ep. 563) – Next, we have neuropharmacologist Stephanie Karzon Abrams. She and Raghu discuss bridging the gap between science and spirit, and how psychedelics can help change our perspectives.Clip 5 (Ep. 596) – The final clip is from a conversation between Raghu and neuroscientist Gül Dölen. They talk about how psychedelics induce meta-plasticity and why “critical periods” after psychedelic therapies are similar to the Buddhist concept of beginner's mind.“But really, what psychedelics are teaching us is the importance of presence, how to listen, how to slow down, right? They're helping to sort of take us out of this rigamarole, this hamster wheel of existence, and see that another way of being is actually possible. And really, what's required more than anything is a loving, compassionate presence.” – Paul AustinSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Psychedelics opened a door Shane didn't know he was opening—and what came through destroyed his life until Jesus closed it. Shane turned to ayahuasca and DMT for spiritual enlightenment, encountering entities that seemed wise, ancient, and genuinely interested in teaching him. These beings felt more real than reality itself, communicated telepathically, and left him convinced he'd accessed higher dimensions. What he didn't understand was that those experiences were invitations that gave these entities legal access to his life. During Air Force service at a classified location, Shane witnessed UFOs performing impossible maneuvers—and the intelligence behind them felt eerily similar to the psychedelic entities. Years later, the door swung wide: alien abduction began with paralysis, grey beings, examinations, and the profound sense that something had rights over him he couldn't revoke. The friendly psychedelic entities had revealed their true nature, and he was trapped. Shane shares how psychedelics functioned as a gateway to demonic oppression, his military UFO sightings that confirmed these entities operate in physical reality, the abduction experiences that proved their malevolent intent, and how calling on Jesus Christ brought immediate deliverance when nothing else worked.

In this episode of The Vital Point, I'm joined by Kyle Buller: co-founder of Psychedelics Today, breathwork facilitator, and educator specializing in integration and spiritual emergence. Kyle has spent nearly a decade training and teaching in the psychedelic and somatic fields, helping people work skillfully with expanded states.We begin with a grounding guided meditation led by Kyle to help you connect with your body's intelligence - specifically tuning into the awareness of the mind, heart, and gut.From there, we dive into the heart of the conversation: what is spiritual emergence, and how is it different from spiritual emergency? We talk about the risks of destabilization when altered states aren't properly integrated, and why having the right support and frameworks can make all the difference. Kyle breaks down practical ways to recognize where someone is in their process and how to meet them — or yourself — with clarity and care.We also explore Kyle's “GPA” model (Grounding, Processing, Action), the importance of embodiment for facilitators, and why discernment and boundaries are essential for sustainable practice. If you're navigating a period of rapid change — or helping others who are — this conversation offers tools, perspective, and reminders to stay connected to the present moment.The vital point is this: transformation doesn't end at the peak. It begins in how you return.Connect with Kyle at https://www.psychedelicstoday.com/ and InstagramJoin the Blue Magic Alchemy Skool community at https://www.skool.com/bluemagicalchemy

Send us a textHear about the latest dynamic developments in the therapeutic psychedelics sector in our latest WTR Healthcare Happenings x Small-Cap Spotlight crossover episode. Tim Gerdeman, Vice Chair & Co-Founder and Chief Marketing Officer at WTR, and Robert Sassoon, WTR's Senior Healthcare Analyst, discuss the October's fundraising activity surge; what has contributed to renewed investor confidence; comparisons with the hype-driven cycle of 2021; impact on valuations in the sector; and sustainability of the positive trend going into 2026.  

In this episode, Psychedelic Medicine Podcast host, Dr. Lynn Marie Morski, provides the latest updates from the field of psychedelic medicine. Dr. Morski discusses the breakthrough therapy designation which a number of psychedelic compounds have received in the past few years, the most recent of which is BPL-003, a nasal spray formulation of 5-MeO-DMT. One of the exciting aspects of this new compound, Dr. Morski notes, is that it is shorter-acting than most serotonergic psychedelics—a feature which may make treatment with this substance less expensive and more accessible.  Another exciting development is the COMPASS Pathways phase 3 trial of COMP360 psilocybin. Dr. Morski shares that the company believes they are nine to twelve months ahead of schedule, which means that if all goes well, this psilocybin compound could be approved for treatment resistant depression as early as sometime in 2027. She also discusses why the US FDA said they rejected MDMA for PTSD and what this governing body would like to see from subsequent research before reconsidering this decision. In closing, Dr. Morski shares excitement about the development of novel psychoplastogens—the non-hallucinogenic psychedelics—which may help bring many of the same healing benefits to populations currently unable to be served by the existing compounds under investigation.   In this episode, you'll hear: Which psychedelics currently have breakthrough therapy designation and for which indications Details of recent ketamine research for inpatient depression care and why these results are not as negative as they may seem The current horizons of psychedelic research and what indications may soon be explored Sources of hope in the current state of psychedelic research and the legal landscape   Quotes: "[BPL-003] showed rapid and durable antidepressant outcomes after a single dose. … here we have something that is under an hour [of psychedelic experience] for treatment resistant depression." [7:43] "Keeping patients blinded to whether or not they got the placebo or MDMA is a big focus that [the FDA] wanted to emphasize for these future phase 3 trials." [19:07] "I know we had a big setback last year. I think a lot of us thought by this time we'd be a year into MDMA being approved and we're not. However, there are so many things on the horizon that are worth being excited about."

“I realized that rather than talking one-to-one with patients in the exam room, you could talk one-to-many on social media,” says Dr. Kevin Pho, explaining the origins of KevinMD, the highly influential information sharing site he created for physicians, medical students and patients twenty years ago. Since then, KevinMD has become a valuable space for clinicians and patients to share stories and perspectives on topics from burnout and moral injury to technology and trust. In this conversation with Raise the Line host Michael Carrese, Dr. Pho reflects on the dual paths that have defined his career: as a practicing internal medicine physician and as one of healthcare's most trusted online voices. And despite the challenges of doing so, Dr. Pho encourages other medical providers to follow his lead. “Patients are going online, and if physicians are not there, they're going to get information that's perhaps politically-driven or simply inaccurate.”This thoughtful conversation also explores: How social media has reshaped health communicationThe risks and rewards for clinicians of having an online presence Why medical schools should teach negotiating skillsMentioned in this episode:KevinMDEstablishing, Managing and Protecting Your Online Reputation If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

What is consciousness actually doing?In this episode of Mind-Body Solution, neuroscientist and theorist Dr Adam Safron joins Dr Tevin Naidu to explore one of the most ambitious frameworks in contemporary consciousness science - Integrated World Modeling Theory (IWMT).IWMT unites leading theories like Integrated Information Theory (IIT), Global Workspace Theory (GWT), and the Free Energy Principle (FEP) into one powerful vision: that consciousness is the brain's model of its own embodied relationship to the world.Together, they examine:- How consciousness might function as a control system for adaptive intelligence- Why embodiment and emotion are essential to conscious experience- Whether consciousness is truly causal, and how this reframes free will- How psychedelics, meditation, and altered states reveal the structure of the self-model- And what IWMT tells us about AI, evolution, and the universe itself Bridging neuroscience, philosophy, and cybernetics, this conversation invites you to rethink what it means to be aware.TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) – Introduction (02:15) – Why Consciousness Matters in the Universe(05:24) – What Is Integrated World Modeling Theory (IWMT)?(09:03) – Modeling the Self, Modeling the World(12:12) – Consciousness as Embodied Simulation(16:38) – Is Consciousness Causal?(20:25) – Agency and the Active Inference Brain(24:30) – Free Energy & Free Will(29:17) – The Hierarchy of Minds(34:42) – From Computation to Experience(39:28) – Why Consciousness Defies Reduction(43:05) – The Psychedelic Brain and World Modeling(47:56) – The Role of Emotion in Consciousness(52:12) – Consciousness and Causation: The Recursive Loop(57:20) – Evolution, Embodiment & the Origins of Mind(1:02:00) – Artificial Minds & Synthetic Consciousness(1:07:25) – The Cybernetic Universe Hypothesis(1:12:38) – Psychedelics & AI(1:24:45) – Engineering Artificial Consciousness(1:27:10) – Toward an Integrated, Compassionate Understanding of Mind(1:44:00) – ConclusionEPISODE LINKS:- Adam's Website: https://www.adamsafron.com/- Adam's X: https://twitter.com/adamsafron- Adam's Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@AdamSafron/- Adam's Publications: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=dZOoilgAAAAJ&hl=enCONNECT:- Website: https://mindbodysolution.org - YouTube: https://youtube.com/@MindBodySolution- Podcast: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mindbodysolution- Twitter: https://twitter.com/drtevinnaidu- Facebook: https://facebook.com/drtevinnaidu - Instagram: https://instagram.com/drtevinnaidu- LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/drtevinnaidu- Website: https://tevinnaidu.com=============================Disclaimer: The information provided on this channel is for educational purposes only.

In this moving Veterans Day episode of Ever Forward Radio, retired Air Force Lt. Col. Benjamin Forest opens up about his personal battle with depression, grief, and identity loss after 25 years of service — and how psychedelics became a catalyst for healing, love, and authentic living. He and Chase explore the mental-health crisis among veterans, the epidemic of loneliness and suppressed emotion in men, and how plant medicine, breathwork, and community can help reconnect us to meaning and purpose. Forest shares insights from his book Trip of a Lifetime: The Psychedelic Guide to Healing, Loving & Living, explaining that true recovery requires vulnerability, relational healing, and learning to open the heart — whether through psychedelics or other integrative practices.

Clinical psychologist Dr. Genesee Herzberg joins Kyle to reflect on two decades in trauma work and 15 years inside the psychedelic ecosystem—from early MAPS conferences to running Sage Integrative Health. She traces how personal psychedelic experiences set her on a path of service, research at CIIS on MDMA-assisted therapy, and hands-on roles with MAPS: Zendo Project harm reduction, adherence rating, and ultimately serving as an MDMA therapist in clinical trials. Today she leads Sage, an integrative clinic (psychotherapy, psychiatry, bodywork, acupuncture, and functional nutrition) focused on ketamine-assisted therapy while preparing for MDMA's eventual approval. She also co-founded a sliding-scale KAP nonprofit (now Alchemy Community Therapy Center), co-edited Integral Psychedelic Therapy, and is helping to launch the International Alliance of MDMA Practitioners. In this episode From counterculture to mainstream: What's been gained—and lost—as psychedelics scaled. Accessibility vs. corporatization: Why cutting corners (prep/integration, therapeutic time) undermines outcomes and safety. "Myth of the magic pill": Psychedelics can catalyze change, but healing is an ongoing process anchored by integration. What good care looks like: Preparation → medicine sessions → robust integration, individualized cadence, and adding bodywork and functional medicine to address gut-brain links, mineral status, sleep, and somatic tension. Ketamine realities: Differences between psycholytic (talk-forward) and psychedelic (eyes-closed, inner-directed) dosing; why some need multiple sessions to build relationship with the medicine; risks of mail-order models (high dosing, poor screening/support), daily prescribing, addiction potential, cystitis, and safety concerns. Sitting, not guiding: The therapist's task is to follow the client's process; intervene sparingly and with consent—especially in trauma work where attuned co-regulation is essential. Multiple access pathways: Support for regulated clinical care and community, peer, and ceremonial models—paired with education and harm reduction (Zendo's SIT peer training and new crisis-responder training). The MDMA pause: Initial devastation at the FDA decision gave way to seeing benefits: time to strengthen ethics, accountability, training standards, and to temper hype-driven investment. Pace and ethics: Lessons from burnout; moving at the speed of trust; exploring "psychedelic business models" (stakeholder focus, distributed decision-making, employee ownership, public benefit structures). Resources & organizations mentioned Sage Integrative Health Alchemy Community Therapy Center (sliding-scale KAP) International Alliance of MDMA Practitioners Integral Psychedelic Therapy (edited by Genesee Herzberg, Jason Butler, Richard Miller) Takeaway: Thoughtful preparation, right-sized dosing, and committed integration—held within ethical, community-minded systems—turn powerful experiences into durable change.

Jason Fellows, founder of Tribal Detox, is dedicated to bringing safety, integrity, and professionalism to the practice of Kambo. A native Texan, Jason served six years in the U.S. military before spending over a decade in the global oil industry. In 2015, his travels took him deep into the Amazon jungle of Peru, where he immersed himself in the traditions of indigenous cultures and was first introduced to Kambo, a traditional healing practice.After experiencing profound personal benefits—including significant relief from anxiety—Jason committed himself to the path of Kambo facilitation. He trained extensively, became certified, and went on to work with thousands of clients worldwide, from professional athletes and veterans to healthcare providers, musicians, and individuals seeking relief from depression and anxiety.Recognizing the need for consistency and safety in the growing field of Kambo, Jason developed a comprehensive practitioner training program through Tribal Detox. His training emphasizes scientific understanding, ethical practice, and client safety, producing confident and responsible practitioners. Today, Jason continues to share his knowledge, ensuring that Kambo is approached with respect and that its integrity as a healing practice is preserved.Episode Highlights▶ Jason's journey from mental health struggles to discovering Kambo▶ How ayahuasca and Kambo opened the door to deep healing▶ What makes Kambo's bioactive peptides so powerful for the body▶ The importance of safety and proper training for practitioners▶ Why purging during Kambo should happen naturally, not be forced▶ Common misconceptions about Kambo as just a detox or cleanse▶ The need for education and responsible practices as interest grows▶ How veterans are turning to alternative healing when traditional methods fall short▶ The importance of ethical sourcing and sustainability in plant medicine▶ Tribal Detox's mission to bring healing and hope to those facing traumaJason Fellows' Links & Resources▶ Website: www.tribaldetox.com▶ Instagram: www.instagram.com/tribaldetox Download Beth's free trainings here: Clarity to Clients: Start & Grow a Transformational Coaching, Healing, Spiritual, or Psychedelic Business: https://bethaweinstein.com/grow-your-spiritual-businessIntegrating Psychedelics & Sacred Medicines Into Business: https://bethaweinstein.com/psychedelics-in-business▶ Beth's Coaching & Guidance: https://bethaweinstein.com/coaching ▶ Beth's Offerings & Courses: https://bethaweinstein.com/services▶ Instagram: @bethaweinstein ▶ FB: / bethw.nyc + bethweinsteinbiz ▶ Join the free Psychedelics & Purpose Community: / psychedelicsandsacredmedicines

“We've created this ecosystem where the vast majority of information on social media, particularly in nutrition science, is inaccurate or misleading,” says Dr. Jessica Knurick, a registered dietitian and Ph.D. in nutrition science specializing in chronic disease prevention. As you'll learn on this episode of Raise the Line with host Lindsey Smith, countering that trend has become Dr. Knurick's focus in the past several years, and her talent for translating complex scientific information into practical guidance has attracted a large following on social media. Beyond equipping her audience with the tools to think critically and make informed choices for themselves, she also wants them to make the connection between the generally poor health status of most Americans with public policies on food and health and advocate for more beneficial approaches. “We can create systems that put the most people in the position to succeed versus putting the most people in the position to fail.” Tune in to learn from this trusted voice on nutrition, food policy, and public health as she shares her perspectives on: Strategies for risk reduction and behavior changeWhat can rebuild trust in medical information How you can cut through the noise and spot misinformation onlineMentioned in this episode:Dr. Knurick's WebsiteTikTok ChannelInstagram FeedFacebook Page If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Brandon and Lindsy welcome a guest who cracks open a hidden dossier on culture-war psyops—where protest songs, psychedelics, and carefully scripted narratives intertwine. Listeners are led through a labyrinth of acid parties that weren't so “free,” Laurel Canyon salons doubling as distribution hubs, and elite families underwriting a psychedelic renaissance that looks far less organic than advertised. From Lennon to Hendrix, Cobain to Tupac, the names you thought were untouchable are revealed as pawns in a much bigger game. This conversation pulls the velvet curtain back on COINTELPRO echoes in hip-hop, the strange survival of “sex & rock 'n' roll” while “no drugs” artists vanished, and the shift from vinyl manipulation to viral manipulation.  Guiding us through this maze of evidence and implication is researcher and filmmaker John Potash.Get his books---https://amzn.to/3Wizkgnhttps://www.johnpotash.com/Timestamps 00:52 Setting up today's topic – hidden war through drugs & culture 02:00 John Potash joins  03:15 John's personal story with LSD and realization 05:20 Counseling, corruption & activism background 07:45 Oligarch fingerprints on U.S. intelligence 10:00 How John got sources on Tupac & COINTELPRO 12:10 CIA whistleblowers & early articles 14:30 Courtney Love, Kurt Cobain & LSD distribution 16:50 MKULTRA documents & acid in colleges/prisons 19:10 Timothy Leary, Millbrook Mansion & the Mellons 21:25 Ken Kesey, Merry Pranksters & the psychedelic bus 23:50 Crisis-actor rumors about Tupac 26:15 The Grateful Dead & acid tests 28:30 How psychedelics weaken emotional control 31:20 John Lennon's story, Yoko Ono & manipulation 33:35 Heroin as a control tactic & parallels with other artists 36:00 Psychedelics today, ketamine, and medical narrative 38:15 Funding links: MAPS, Heffter Institute & billionaires 40:35 Church abuse, MKULTRA techniques still active 42:55 John's website, books & projects / closing thoughts

Originally developed as an anesthetic in the 1960s, ketamine has reemerged as one of modern psychiatry's most promising tools for treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Its superpower lies in working with your brain's glutamate receptors to create antidepressant effects. What does the future of psychedelic-assisted mental health care hold? Could this once-stigmatized molecule represent the future of mental health care and healing the mind from within?In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Mai Shimada, M.D., MBA, FAAEM. Dr. Shimada is a board-certified emergency medicine physician with over a decade of experience and is the founder and CEO of Isha Health, an online at-home ketamine clinic dedicated to providing safe and effective treatments for depression and anxiety.Dr. Shimada received her MD from the University of Tokyo, Emergency Medicine residency in the United States, and later on, completed the Psychedelic Facilitation Certification Program at the UC Berkeley Center for the Science of Psychedelics in two areas and the Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy Training Program at Polaris Insight Center.

It tends to think any sort of emotion constitutes a threat, any sort of insight into how the mind or perceptual system works is more than you can handle, so what you want is to slowly get to know yourself.” –Tucker Peck, Ph.D.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This episode of Start Today is a special cross-post from the recent conversation I had with my friend Brad Lea on the Dropping Bombs Podcast.    "Psychedelics are basically like steroids for human consciousness." – Chris Cavallini   In this raw and unfiltered sit-down, I expose the no-BS strategies that took me from 17 arrests and steroid distribution charges to building an eight-figure meal prep empire. We rip the lid off frequency elevation, the real truth about psychedelics as peak performance tools (not party drugs), and why most entrepreneurs quit right before their breakthrough. From ayahuasca journeys in Costa Rica to 5-MeO-DMT experiences that rival 20 years of therapy, I reveal how elite performers like Tony Robbins, Steve Jobs, and Elon Musk use these tools to elevate consciousness and dominate their fields.   This isn't about getting high—it's about getting higher frequency. No fluff. No excuses. Just the raw blueprint for self-mastery and business domination.  

This summer, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. said he'd like to see psychedelic therapies for depression, trauma and other hard-to-treat disorders approved for use within the next 12 months. Last year the FDA rejected psychedelic-assisted therapy for use in treating PTSD. We check in with long-time researchers about how state and federal governments can influence the momentum of their field, how they're reconciling the new right wing support, and what it all means for the future of psychedelic research and therapy. Guests: Michael Silver, director, UC Berkeley Center for the Science of Psychedelics Marlena Robbins, Indigenous public health and policy consultant; doctor of public health candidate, UC Berkeley Berra Yazar-Klosinski, founder and CEO, Yazar Lab, LLC; former chief scientific officer, Lykos Therapeutics Learn more about your ad choices.

Dimitri and Khalid speak with Brian Normand, Russell Hausfeld, and Brian Pace from the psychedelic watchdog group Psymposia about their excellent new 200+ page report, “The Psychedelic Syndicate”. Other topics discussed: how and why Psymposia became the psychedelic industry's anointed scapegoat after the FDA rejected MDMA-assisted therapy in 2024, Hamilton Morris's defamatory and weirdly misogynistic attacks on Psymposia in his recent Channel 5 interview, the rapid ascendance of a right-wing techno-capitalist psychedelic culture over the last 5-10 years, the billionaire-stuffed PSFC money network that took over MAPS, why handing Peter Thiel, Rebekah Mercer, and Kimbal Musk a for-profit psychedelic therapy monopoly in 2025 might be a bad idea, using military veterans as a sympathetic smokescreen to ram pseudoscientific Grofian therapeutic protocols through regulatory agencies, Steve Jurvetson's post-MeToo fever dreams of building an AI-assisted psychedelic pro-capitalist Burning Man Gaia religion, and what it's like facing a coordinated onslaught from the entheogenic mafia of MAPS/Esalen New Agers, Silicon Valley technofascists, one-shotted heirs of Great American Fortunes, duplicitous New York Times reporters, and astroturfed “veterans' groups” who are seeking to define and control the future of psychedelic use across the American empire.

Clinical psychologist Dr. Ros Watts joins Psychedelics Today to share insights from her decade of work with psilocybin therapy and her evolving focus on community-based integration. As the former Clinical Lead for Imperial College London's landmark psilocybin-for-depression trial, Dr. Watts witnessed how psychedelic experiences can foster profound feelings of connection— to self, others, and nature — yet also how that connection can fade without ongoing support. In this conversation, she reflects on what years of research have taught her about connectedness as both a healing mechanism and a human need. She explores how integration work can transform fleeting psychedelic breakthroughs into lasting change, and why community is not just a "nice-to-have," but a core part of psychological and ecological resilience. Dr. Ros Watts also discusses her "Twelve Trees" framework — a nature-inspired model for personal and collective growth that helps participants translate insight into action through values, embodiment, and mutual care. Her current project, ACER Integration (Accept, Connect, Embody, Restore), is a 13-month, co-created journey that guides people in weaving psychedelic insights into everyday life while deepening relationships with self, others, and the living world. Named among the Top 50 Most Influential People in Psychedelics and Top 16 Women Shaping the Future of Psychedelics, Dr. Watts continues to advocate for integration, harm-reduction, and inclusion in the psychedelic space. Together, we explore what sustainable healing really means, how organizations can embody the same principles they teach, and how the psychedelic movement can root itself in care, connection, and community.
