IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER (borrowed from Tim Ferriss, linked here):

The plants and compounds mentioned in this [podcast] are illegal in many countries, and even possession can carry severe criminal penalties. None of this [podcast] constitutes medical advice or should be construed as a recommendation to use psychedelics. There are serious legal, psychological, and physical risks. Psychedelics are not for everyone—they can exacerbate certain emotional problems, and there have been, in very rare cases, fatalities. 

7 years ago, when I was first starting to get curious about psychedelics like Ayahuasca, mushrooms, MDMA and LSD…these medicines were very much underground and difficult to access unless you knew someone who knew someone who was in the underground world.

I didn’t even know anyone personally who’d done any psychedelics to talk to about their experiences. 

It was also difficult to get access to legitimate resources to educate yourself on the dos, donts and dangers of psychedelic use so you could even determine whether it was right for you. 

These days, psychedelics have become part of mainstream conversation. Tim Ferriss has become a prominent champion of responsible psychedelic use. Michael Pollan wrote a category breaking book called How to Change Your Mind, which is now a Netflix documentary series. And speaking of documentaries, there’s been an explosion of those both on the major streaming platforms as well as on YouTube. 

Now it seems like everyone is microdosing something these days. 

So I thought it would be high time to have a conversation about why psychedelics have played such an important role in my personal growth.

Bryan is sitting out this conversation today, and I’ve brought back my man, Keith Bracci, a semi-regular on this show and a brother I’ve journeyed with a number of times. 


In this Episode:

  • The 3 most important considerations for taking a safe, responsible psychedelic journey 
  • Considerations you should make to determine if they are right for you.
  • How 15 minutes of a profound psychedelic experience can impact the next 50 years of your life
  • How psychadelics can shatter your ego in extremely scary, painful, and eventually empowering ways
  • How a single medicine journey can heal decades of trauma
  • How responsible journeying can bring back a sense of wonder, awe and childhood delight of the world around you into your life
