Ep 193 - "Fungus, Focus & Emotional Resilience"
Thursday, 8 January, 2026
In this episode of Head, Heart, and Boots, Brandon and I have one of our most personal and vulnerable conversations to date. We step into a topic that’s often misunderstood, stigmatized, or avoided altogether - alternative medicine and the role psilocybin has played in my own mental, emotional, and relational health. I share my background growing up in a deeply religious environment, my initial skepticism, and the long road that led me to explore psilocybin in a clinical, intentional setting. We talk openly about emotional reactivity, anxiety, ADD, anger, self-criticism, and the hidden cost many high-performing leaders carry as they chase growth, success, and legacy. This isn’t about escapism or chasing an experience - it’s about healing, stability, and building emotional margin so we can show up better for our families, our teams, and ourselves. This conversation isn’t prescriptive or promotional. It’s an honest exploration of curiosity, research, personal experience, and the growing body of evidence showing how some leaders are finding lasting change by addressing the battle between their ears - not just their to-do lists. Hope you enjoy, Chris Why You Should Listen: [00:02:44] Why emotional stability - not motivation or discipline - may be the missing piece for leaders stuck in anxiety, anger, or burnout [00:06:45] How psilocybin therapy moved from military PTSD research into the lives of high-performing professionals seeking lasting mental health [00:11:24] What a single therapeutic experience can reveal about self-criticism, reactivity, and the hidden narratives shaping your behavior [00:22:00] How increased emotional margin can transform relationships with spouses, kids, and teams, not just productivity [00:31:37] Why intention, environment, and facilitation matter, and how misuse versus medicine creates radically different outcomes Did you know...

Even more striking, just 10% of those sell for the price their owners anticipated or higher, meaning only 3% of all business owners achieve their desired sale price. By focusing on understanding and enhancing your enterprise value, you can significantly boost your chances of joining that successful 3%.
