Jesse Israel joins Into the Multiverse for a deep dive into conscious uncoupling, psychedelics, and rethinking destination happiness.
After success in the music industry, Jesse shifted his career to leading mass meditations, going on tour with Oprah, and founding 'The Big Quiet'. After things shut down in 2020, Jesse had a breakdown, that led to a breakthrough of recognizing true fulfillment - regardless of how things were going externally. He shares his journey with that today, and offers insights for anyone struggling to find peace and happiness in the here and now.
Alli and him also talk about their past partnership, and how psychedelics helped them to cope with the breakup, and eventually become closer friends than ever.
