  • In this episode, Peter and Erin interview creative entrepreneur, strategist and medicine woman, Florencia (Flor) Bollini. Flor is the founder of NANA, a transformative medicine company that provides integrative solutions for mental health and wellness. During the episode, Flor explains how she has devoted her career to helping humans achieve their full potential through a series of lifestyle modifications, including the progressive dosing of psychoactive medicines and women empowerment. Peter, Erin and Flor discuss how a wide variety of cultural and ancestral practices lend themselves to a complete toolkit for the healing of the mind, body, heart and soul as well as the importance of women in the future of psychedelics. Flor also shares her perspective on the ideal settings for healing, and why clinics aren't always optimal for a psychedelic experience. Finally, she shares her thoughts on what it means to answer the knock of destiny at your door, and how getting out of our own way allows us to transcend the person that we think we can become.

  • In this episode, Peter and Erin interview Anna Rickman, Co-Founder and Chief Commercial Officer of Wavepaths. Wavepaths is a company that focuses on creating music and sounds to enhance psychedelic therapy and act as a therapy in and of itself. During the episode, Anna shares the story of how some challenging times through her youth led her to seek out therapy, which in turn guided her to an experience with ayahuasca. After a handful of sessions with the plant medicine, she notes that a switch seemed to flip both in relation to her mental health and the role music can play in a psychedelic environment, which led her to co-founding Wavepaths along with Dr. Mendel Kaelen, one of the early pioneers in the space who created many of the playlists in the early psilocybin studies. Peter, Erin and Anna also discuss the concept of experience as medicine, and how Wavepaths is creating their own adaptive and generative music for psychedelic therapy. Anna shares her tips for creating a playlist for a trip outside of a clinical setting, and the characteristics of music that make it so impactful and therapeutic.

Deanna has been working with these substances for over a decade at such locations as the Temple of the Way of Light, and with other well known influencers in this work such as Gabor Maté. And although her work has taken several different forms over the years, she has remained focused on themes of self-realization and empowerment throughout. During the discussion, Peter, Erin and Deanna discuss why the stages before and after a psychedelic experience are so critical, and how people can push past the boundaries of themselves to actively open up with plant medicines, versus the common notion of surrendering.

Finally, Deanna shares her perspective on the future of psychedelic healing, and where she hopes to see the industry go in the future.
