Transformative Keynotes

I don’t believe everyone should take psychedelics, but I do believe that psychedelics are for everyone.

In 2019 I had an opportunity to experience a guided psilocybin (magic mushroom) journey, and it completely changed my worldview. Since then, I have gone from someone who had never taken any drugs, with the exception of a few experiences with cannabis, to a deep dive into the study of human consciousness with the help of psilocybin, ayahuasca, ketamine, LSD, MDMA, DMT, 5-MeO-DMT, and more.

Psychedelics for Everyone is my attempt to share some of the insights I have gained with the world. While I’m not suggesting that psychedelics are a panacea that will solve all of life’s problems, I am confident that they can play a powerful role in healing and connection, both for the people that choose to use them and for those that do not. This is what I mean by Psychedelics for Everyone.

Psychedelics for Entrepreneurs

Psychedelics and entrepreneurs are a natural pairing for two reasons. One: entrepreneurs are generally risk-tolerant with a proclivity for experimentation, and Two: probably more significantly, they are often in pain.

Many entrepreneurs have experienced the phenomenon of "early promotion", meaning they were promoted into adulthood at an early age due to adversity of some sort.
