Ten years in the NHL, 2 Stanley Cups, a few Traumatic Brain injuries, addiction, and a healing journey that’s inspiring THOUSANDS - Dan Carcillo is living-proof psychedelics, healthy living, and a self-centric strategy to your wellness works.
Dan joined Dean today to discuss his journey from a retired and broken 31-year-old former Stanley Cup Champion to owning and operating Experience Onward. This wellness brand is reshaping men's and women's lives, transitioning out of similar darkness. Dan’s one of those people who experienced a life very few people have and found himself in the darkness after scaling mountains reserved for very few human beings. He’s the only person/Athlete I know who has effectively cured himself of depression, anxiety, and PTSD with a healthy strategy catered on Mushrooms/Psilocybin. His journey is as close as possible to a self-healing modern miracle, and he’s just starting in the second chapter of his life.
If you have ever struggled with addiction, transitioning into a new career, depression, PTSD, etc, and feel lost, this is a podcast for you. Dan shares his unique perspective on evolving in your best interest while advocating for your well-being. The turnaround in Dan’s life has been remarkable, and he works with hundreds of others looking for relief from trauma to live lives full of joy, compassion, and hope.
00:00 Dan and Dean touch tips
04:38 From “Car Bomb” to psychedelic/wellness coach and advocate: Dan qualifies himself, how he lives his life today, and why
18:01 We interrupt this podcast because Dan’s wife brought him flowers because it’s his 40th birthday - Dan failed to mention that.
18:20 Dan at his sickest -25-year-old “Opioid” Dan - is pretty stark: The start of Dan’s journey 15 years ago began with an NHPLA trip to rehab for Opiate Addiction. Rehab is the great equalizer.
24:23 Expectations: Knowing what you control and what you don’t and embracing your nature is the essential part of living an authentic life.
31:49 Dan Carcillo still has “That Dawg” in him: being authentic, embracing all the parts of who you are, and managing the parts of yourself you’re trying to change.
44:04 Dan on Psychedelics and “CURING” yourself with plant-based medicine - how Dan ended up changing his life with Mushrooms
55:59 Dan talks about his new Psilocybin Therapy clinic in Oregon: Experience Onward is the 13th facility of its kind in The United States, and he’s ALL-IN to help others with psychedelic therapy.
59:49 Mushroom Trips: Peaking behind the veil, seeing music and experiencing visual energy
