What if we’re not just managing mental illness - but on the verge of curing it?
In today’s episode, I sit down with Dr. David Rabin: a board certified psychiatrist, neuroscientist, and pioneer in psychedelic-assisted therapy, to explore the future of mental health.
From reprogramming trauma with MDMA to using AI and vibration-based tools to calm the nervous system, we talk about what healing truly means in the 21st century. We even take a wild ride into DMT, the spirit molecule, and what science says about its role in consciousness, dreams, and the possibility of other dimensions. Buckle up, because this episode will challenge how you think about therapy, the mind, and reality itself.
