Zach Leary's insights into psychedelics show us how psychedelics intersect with the advancements and issues of the 21st century. We see how individuals can engage with these compounds as a means of personal growth and sustainable healing, using psychedelics to fundamentally transform one's way of life.
Echoing Timothy Leary's everlasting impression on the psychedelic and counterculture movements of the 60's, his son, Zach Leary, comes on the scene for a thought-provoking conversation, offering the unique perspective not only of the son of a legend but someone who has watched the evolution of the psychedelic movement up close and personal for the last 30 years.
Zach spent many years as a digital marketing expert for world-renowned brands, but about 13 years ago, Zach had a wake-up call that thrust him back into the center of what he calls the "psychedelic cyclone," thanks to the influence of his primary teacher and mentor, Ram Dass.
Since then, Zach has discovered his own unique voice and approach to contributing to the revolutionary psychedelic movement of the 21st century.
Having worked with nearly 200 people one-on-one and having taught over a hundred in his unique approach to psychedelic studies, he has dove into the psychedelic scene in a way that would make his father proud. Zach shares insights from his unique upbringing surrounded by influential psychedelic figures, expanding upon his father's concept of "set and setting," emphasizing the need for a sustainable approach to using psychedelics, encouraging listeners to think beyond mere peak experiences and to cultivate lasting change in their lives.
