Tackling the Mental Health Crisis using Ketamine-Assisted Therapy with Dylan Beynon

Dylan is the founder of the ketamine-assisted therapy startup “Mindbloom” — He also shares what they’ve learned so far from running nearly 700 thousand guided ketamine sessions, his idea that "There’s no magic pill, but there is a magic program". and how he’s been dealing with a recent Wall Street Journal hit piece attempting to discredit his company. I also shared some of my own recent experiences with ketamine assisted somatic journeys and the impact that it’s had on my own life.
