He invites us to explore the untold chapters of the psychedelic movement—uncovering insights that challenge our perspectives, expand our awareness, and remind us that the pursuit of knowledge is as much an adventure as it is an awakening.So, open your minds, settle into the moment, and prepare for an enlightening conversation that promises to leave you inspired and maybe just a little more curious about the mysteries of consciousness. Let’s dive in!Consciousness and Psychedelic Research 1. What first sparked your interest in consciousness research, and how did psychedelics become a central part of that journey? 2. How do you define consciousness, and how has your understanding evolved through your studies? 3. What are the biggest misconceptions people have about psychedelics and their role in consciousness research?Ethics in Psychedelic Studies 4. How do you approach the ethical complexities of psychedelic research, especially in a world where regulations and cultural norms vary so widely? 5. What role does consent and intent play in the ethical use of psychedelics, both in research and personal exploration? 6. Are there any ethical red flags in the current psychedelic renaissance that concern you?Living History of the Psychedelic Movement 7. What lessons can we learn from the pioneers of the psychedelic movement, and how can we avoid the mistakes of the past? 8. How has the global perception of psychedelics shifted over the decades, and what factors do you think drove those changes? 9. Can you share a lesser-known story or figure from the psychedelic movement that has had a profound impact on your perspective?Personal Reflections and Insights 10. How has your own exploration of altered states changed the way you view reality, relationships, or even humanity as a whole? 11. Humor seems to be a part of your approach—why is it important to keep the journey “groovy” even when discussing serious topics? 12. What’s been the most surprising or enlightening discovery you’ve made in your research?The Future of Psychedelics and Consciousness 13. Where do you see the intersection of psychedelics and consciousness research heading in the next 10-20 years? 14. How can psychedelics contribute to solving global challenges, such as mental health crises or societal polarization? 15. If the psychedelic movement had a “manifesto” for humanity’s future, what would you want it to include?Practical and Philosophical Questions16. What advice would you give to someone who’s curious about exploring psychedelics for the first time, especially in a conscious and ethical way? 17. How do you balance scientific inquiry with the deeply subjective and spiritual nature of the psychedelic experience? 18. What role do you think storytelling plays in shaping public understanding of psychedelics and consciousness?Legacy and Impact 19. If you could leave one lasting message or lesson for the next generation of consciousness researchers, what would it be? 20. How do you envision your work contributing to the broader psychedelic movement, and what impact do you hope it will have on the world?1. Could modern therapeutic frameworks unintentionally dilute the ancient wisdom of psychedelics, and if so, how might this loss shape their future impact? 2. If psychedelics primarily dissolve the ego, could there be unintended consequences for personal identity or leadership development? 3. How might the rise of commercialized psychedelic therapy undermine its potential to foster authentic healing? 4. Instead of focusing on psychedelics to “heal,” could they be better used to redefine what “mental health” means entirely?Jungian Psychology and the Shadow 5. If the shadow represents what is repressed, could the overemphasis on shadow work create new blind spots in individual and collective psyches? 6. Are there dangers in using psychedelics to confront the shadow without first building a strong ego foundation? 7. Could societal systems (like healthcare) actually benefit from repressing their collective shadow to maintain stability? 8. How might the intersection of shadow work and technology (e.g., AI) reshape our understanding of consciousness?Bridging Psychedelics and Healthcare 9. Instead of asking how healthcare can embrace psychedelics, should we ask if healthcare itself is the wrong system for psychedelic integration? 10. How do we reconcile the tension between individual healing experiences and the systemic need for standardized medical protocols? 11.

If the collective shadow of healthcare is greed, is it possible to integrate psychedelics into the system without compromising their transformative power?Leadership and Vision 13. Can leaders advocating for psychedelics remain unbiased, or does their immersion in this space create its own blind spots? 14. Should psychedelic advocates focus on small-scale, localized change rather than trying to reform entire systems? 15. How do leaders balance the risk of becoming “saviors” in a field often associated with profound spiritual transformation? 16. Could psychedelic leadership fail by overlooking how power dynamics influence the accessibility and perception of these therapies?Broader Perspectives 17.
