  • Let’s celebrate. This is episode 100!

    My guest is Jonathan Sabbagh, Co-Founder of Journey Clinical and I talk about normalising Ketamine therapy for all, plus why PTSD can fire up your career - until you realize it is harmful to you. Since a few years I am following Jonathan and his wife and Co-Founder Myriam Barthe’s great work around the idea to

    build a strong, decentralized network and offerings for KAP (Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy) to empower as much therapists as possible to execute the therapy.

    They did an incredible and successful job to make Ketamine therapy available and build a strong system in collaboration with therapists and doctors.


    In this episode is talk to Jonathan about:

    -how PTSD can give you a skyrocketing career, until you realiize your “energy” is trauma in disguise

    -how we both were very good in PTSD friendly jobs (banking & media) and left them because we realised our own PTSD

    -how Journey Clinical helps therapists to support their patients with ketamine therapy, (eventually psilocybin) if they are interested in trying and

    why normal “therapy” needs a strong transformation


    What Journey Clinical does

    Journey Clinical is on a mission to transform the growing mental health crisis by accelerating the mainstream adoption of legal, evidence-based Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapy as the standard of care for mental health, starting with Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy. They have built a leading platform for Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapy in the US. They also recently announce a research collaboration agreement with Compass Pathways to inform the development of a scalable delivery and training model for COMP360 psilocybin treatment. Which means, together with Compass, they work on a future delivery model for psilocybin therapy.

  • I have the pleasure of speaking with Elise Loehnen, one of my favourite authors whose storytelling resonates deeply with me. We share a journey of realizing the toll of overwork, anxiety, and the pursuit of wellness as a cure-all, only to discover the transformative power of psychedelics.

    Elise's expertise in content creation was evident during her tenure as the chief content officer at goop, where she co-hosted The goop Podcast and The goop Lab on Netflix. Her role involved spearheading content strategy, including the successful launch of a magazine with Condé Nast and a book imprint. With a Bachelor's degree from Yale, majoring in English and Fine Arts, and a rich media career, Elise brings a wealth of experience to her work.

    Now based in Los Angeles with her husband, Rob, and their sons, Max and Sam, Elise continues to inspire through her writing and editing. As the host of Pulling the Thread, a podcast with Cadence13, she engages cultural luminaries on pressing questions for our society in featuring notable figures like Dr. Gabor Maté and Dr. Temple Grandin. Despite co-authoring twelve books, including five New York Times Best Sellers, Elise's latest venture, her first book under her own name, "On Our Best Behavior: The Seven Deadly Sins and the Price Women Pay to Be Good," has captured attention as an instant New York Times bestseller.

    Our conversation naturally gravitates towards psychedelics, exploring the pivotal role MDMA played in Elise's journey, her transformative experiences with 5 MEO Dot, and the evolving landscape of psychedelic exploration in adulthood.”

  • This episode is sponsored by Magi Ancestral Supplements, whose leading team of neuroscientists, ethnophamacologists, and phytochemists, has unlocked the formulation of an ancient Eastern psychoactive elixir that was lost to time.


    Lets talk about ancient alchemy today! Today I chat with Dr. Shauheen Etminan, the founder of VCENNA an advanced biotech company specializing in natural drug discovery for mental health, seamlessly blends ancient Eastern medicine with modern science. As a scientist, researcher, product developer, and dedicated entrepreneur, Dr. Etminan is committed to creating holistic wellness solutions rooted in the convergence of medicine and …mysticism. Armed with an MSc and Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering, Dr. Etminan's expertise extends beyond the technicals. He is a mystic who has been practicing Sufi whirling meditation for many years, reflecting his deep commitment to holistic well-being.
Renowned as a world expert in phytochemical extraction technology, Dr. Etminan explores the realm of psychedelics with a particular focus on ancient texts. Dr. Etminan and his team have unveiled neurological health properties in beta-carbolines. This groundbreaking discovery has led to the formulation and launch of multiple psychoactive supplements designed to promote longevity, mindfulness, and therapeutic benefits under Magi Ancestral Supplements.


    Ancestral Magi is co-founded by Dr. Shauheen Etminan and has the legendary Dr. Dennis McKenna on its scientific advisory board. They have combined modern neuroscience with ancient Eastern medicine to formulate 100% natural nootropic supplements that are psychoactive and legal!

    Magi's products' primary group of compounds are beta-carbolines extracted from the sacred plant, Espand, also known as Syrian rue. Their products promote neuro-longevity, mindfulness, and mental wellbeing. Did you know that Espand has the same psychoactive compounds that exist in the Ayahuasca vine? I'm not relating to DMT, but beta-carbolines. Experience the magic of their supplement, Stard, Magi's meditation supplement, which has been my favorite. It provides 60 to 75 minutes of pure bliss, where the mind stops wandering and can be present in the here and now. (Whether you're new to meditation or a seasoned practitioner, Stard is an ancestral catalyst that will take you further on your journey) Magi’s supplements are fully legal and currently available in the US. Stay tuned, as they will be available in Europe in July. Check their website out at www.ancestral.magi.com.

  • Today I am speaking with Madison Margolin, an author, journalist, editor, consultant, educator, and guide to all things Jewish-Psychedelic. She is the also the former Co-Founder of the Double Blind magazine about the new culture of psychedelics. Her book. Exile and Ecstasy Growing Up with Ram Dass and Coming of Age in the Jewish Psychedelic Underground is pretty fascinating.Exile and Ecstasy sets out to explore the psychedelic path that occupies the crossroads between the Ram Dass movement and Judaism. It’s a path of seeking and escape, rebellion and return, medicine and magic. It’s a path that ultimately points toward home.

    Through the perspective of having grown up among “HinJews” in the Ram Dass community and in the cannabis legalisation movement, journalist Madison Margolin takes the us on a journey inside New York’s Jewish counterculture and the Hasidic underground, reconciling her roots, tackling ancestral Jewish trauma, and finding intersectionality between the Jewish and psychedelic experience. This book is for anyone looking to feel spiritually kindled, to make peace with where they come from, and to reconcile seemingly disparate experiences of spirituality and psychedelics with traditional religion.I think in these times we live in, books like this are really necessary.

  • Have you thought about changing your mind, I mean really change it? And have you thought about going on a trip? I mean a psychedelic trip? There will be more and more facilities in the future where you can do this in a safe set and setting, also in a legal setting. My podcast is a space were I introduce these places to you and today I am talking to Ingmar de Gooijer, the Founder of Magnolia in the Netherlands.A place which offers individual psychedelic programs. Magnolia supports patients and clients in gaining access to their inner healing intelligence and activating it. After a thorough screening, each patient and client follows a personalized program that includes the administration of a psychedelic substance. Magnolia offers Ketamine therapy for patients under the medical supervision of psychiatrists, psychologists, and physicians in a mental health treatment environment. As well as experiences with psilocybin-containing truffles facilitated by experienced guides. I believe that these experiences will become way more normal in the future, and also destigmatized. Ingmar de Gooijer and I talk about the new type of customer looking for an experience, about the changes psychedelics created in our own lives and about a new idea around personal health care.

  • Social scientist Rachelle Sampson & Regenerative economist Bennet Zelner are working on a super interesting study and program.

    Designed for executive leaders facing an increasingly complex world, the Connected Leadership Program explores the potential of psychedelics to unlock greater creativity and resourcefulness for navigating complexity. The program includes an in-person retreat at Kiyumi Retreats in the Netherlands, as well as virtual group and individual executive coaching sessions before and after the retreat. Enrollment is currently open for two cohorts starting in June 2024 and October 2024. 

    This program was developed in conjunction with the Connected Leadership Study, a novel research project led by Rachelle Sampson, Ph.D. and Bennet Zelner, Ph.D., faculty at the University of Maryland’s Smith School of Business who appeared on my most recent podcast episode. The study examines whether and how perspective shifts from psychedelic experiences affect decision-making in organizations.

    In the podcast, we talk about

    the future of leadershipthe future of psychedelic leadershipwhy we love to watch bad leadership on TV, why Don Draper was a traumatized leader and why Ted Lasso and Taylor Swift are modern ego-less leaders for the psychedelic age.how a study about psychedelic leadership and the C-Level looks like and why these experiences could lead us to a whole new idea of leaders.

  • I wrote 40 e-mails to Carl Hart to ask him for a podcast. and I would have written 50.To me he is one of the most fascinating scientist that came on the radar in the context of the psychedelic renaissance a few years ago. Finally two weeks ago, I was able to talk to him at Neue House in New York. Dr. Carl L. Hart, Ziff Professor at Columbia University and former chair of the Department of Psychology. is is one of the world's preeminent experts on the effects of so-called recreational drugs on the human mind and body. Dr. Carl Hart is open about the fact that he uses drugs himself, in a happy balance with the rest of his full and productive life as a researcher and professor, husband, father, and friend. In his book Drug Use for Grown-Ups, Hart draws on decades of research and his own personal experience to argue definitively that the criminalization and demonization of drug use--not drugs themselves--have been a tremendous scourge on America, not least in reinforcing this country's enduring structural racism.Dr. Hart did not always have this view. He came of age in one of Miami's most troubled neighborhoods at a time when many ills were being laid at the door of crack cocaine. His initial work as a researcher was aimed at proving that drug use caused bad outcomes. But one problem kept cropping up: the evidence from his research did not support his hypothesis. From inside the massively well-funded research arm of the American war on drugs, he saw how the facts did not support the ideology. The truth was dismissed and distorted in order to keep fear and outrage stoked, the funds rolling in, and Black and brown bodies behind bars. "Drug Use for Grown-Ups" is controversial, but Carl's way of talking about the war on drugs and how it brought us here where we are in terms of body autonomy, is fascinating. In this podcast we discuss all kinds of things around drugs, but mainly we talk about the autonomy of body and mind.

  • This episode was not very easy to do. It was a difficult conversation. Very open, very vulnerable, but it was a conversation I wanted to have with a the Safe Heart foundation- A Professional support for the survivors of the music festivals on October 7th in Israel. We decided to keep this episode as little political as possible. So we would be able to take about what happened on and after the rave with the people attending the rave, where the got attacked and how their trauma played out in the aftermath of the event. Safe Heart is a mental health organization bringing together a professional network of clinical psychologists, psychiatrists, clinical social workers, psychotherapists and qualified clinical instructors, all of whom have experience working with severe traumatic experiences and in the field of psychedelic harm reduction and integration.


    I am talking to Dr. Demian Halperin Head of psychiatric support MD, Board-certified psychiatrist and psychotherapist. And to Guy Simon, Board Member, Chairman of the Clinical Advisory Committee M.A, M.S.W, PhD(c), Psychotherapist with expertise in trauma. Clinical Director at Impulse. Specializes in relational psychoanalysis and Buddhist psychology.


    We talk about how to work around a special traumatising experience of the people being attacked while partying, while being on a psychedelic substance. We talk about how the whole experience of October 7th can influence everyone on a global level and what this could mean for a treating trauma with psychedelics. I am very proud of this conversation, we managed to stay informative, yet being able to voice pain, trauma and the effect the event had on the jewish community.

    If you know someone who could use help after the events, please get in touch here.

  • Todays opic might seem like a harsh one. PTSD Post traumatic stress syndrome and how it could be healed with MDMA therapy or ibogaine soon. But the world should be informed what this looks like, especially in the current state. Civilians and veterans are suffering. We are exposed to a whole new situation of trauma and war, even just watching what is happening can cause re traumatisation. As heavy as this topic is, I firmly belief the knowledge around healing modalities should be out there. My guests today are real experts on the topic.Amber Capone is the Co-founder and Executive Director of VETS Inc. (Veterans Exploring Treatment Solutions, Inc. Co-founder and Executive Director ) a pioneering organisation providing resources, research, and advocacy for U.S. Special Operations veterans seeking psychedelic assisted therapies abroad. Amber has served as the engine behind the dynamic success of the VETS mission since it’s inception in 2019, raising funds to support hundreds of veterans, spouses, and Gold Star spouses, while also spearheading research and legislative initiatives at both the state and federal levels. A natural born complex problem solver, Amber is committed to fighting as hard for other veteran families as she did for her own following a tumultuous return to civilian life after her husband, Marcus’ 13 year career as a US Navy SEAL.


    Jonathan M. Lubecky, U.S. Army SGT(R) , is the founder of Lubecky Strategic Direction, Veterans & Governmental Affairs Liason for MAPS, and VP Communications at Apollo Pact. He is a 12-year retiree of the U.S. Armed Forces, serving in both the Marine Corps and the Army. He has been a freelance journalist since 2014. Since 2016 he has been a Strategic Communications & Governmental Affairs Consultant advocating for psychedelic medicine and Veterans. Jonathan returned from a deployment to Iraq in 2006. Shortly after returning, he was diagnosed with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and a traumatic brain injury. While battling PTSD, enduring multiple forms of treatment, and taking dozens of pills per day to manage symptoms, he attempted to take his life five times. While recovering from that fifth attempt in the hospital, he was instructed to “Google MDMA PTSD”. Beginning exactly 8 years after being released from active duty from Iraq, Jonathan began MDMA-assisted therapy in a MAPS Phase 2 study and completed the protocol in early 2015. As of November 22, 2022 he has been healed of PTSD as long as he had PTSD

    Jon was appointed the National Veterans Director for the Rand Paul for President campaign. Realizing the potential of psychedelic medicine to heal his fellow veterans and the millions of Americans suffering as he once did, he has been involved in media, politics, and government affairs, with a focus on the Department of Defense, Department of Veterans Affairs, and Media ever since receiving MDMA therapy.

  • Just imagine, you are running a company. And you would like to offer a better mental health care for your employees, maybe psychedelic therapy? Sounds crazy? It is not. It is it already working. In the coming years, companies will have to change to supoort their employees differently. I finally have Sherry Rais on the show, a fascinating founder and CEO of Enthea.

    A company that provides access to safe and affordable psychedelic therapy for everyone who can benefit. Established in 2022, Enthea is a mental health company dedicated to providing access to safe and affordable psychedelic-assisted therapy, beginning with ketamine therapy. As a public benefit corporation, we are prioritizing the removal of health equity obstacles that impede people from receiving impactful mental healthcare services. Sherry Rais, MSc, has helped dozens of startups, non-profit organizations, academic/research institutions, and small businesses raise funds, operate according to their mission and values, and implement processes that enhance their overall efficiency. Sherry believes in living and working in alignment with purpose and is currently focused on expanding access to psychedelic-assisted therapy to alleviate human suffering.

    Before this, Sherry consulted for over 10 years with the United Nations and World Bank, implementing cash transfer programs at the national level in over 35 countries. Sherry holds a Master’s Degree in Public Policy and Management from the London School of Economics and a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology and International Development from McGill University. She also completed the Certificate in Psychedelic Therapies and Research from CIIS in 2021. In addition to being Enthea's CEO, she is the Executive Director of the Boston Psychedelic Research Group and the Grants Manager for CIIS.

    We talk about, why poverty is trauma related, why offering healing as a founder and a company owner be important and why new tools and psychedelic “incentives” are here, how this works compliance and data wise, why we won’t be able to live without new healing modalities and an idea of new health, on the job and at home.

  • We are finally back! Today I talk to Suzanne Khan and Alice Policand, founders of Bien Health, Suzanne is a biochemist engineer who worked for L’Oreal, Alice is a luxury marketing specialist who worked for LVMH. But then they met and decided to build a great looking micro dosing brand from Paris. To me their brand was one of the first psychedelic brands that look really chic, I could see it carrying around in my handbag.It feels "normal" to carry truffles round that way. Will this be our future? Will we experience a post anxiety revolution?
    We talk about a growing community of micro dosing fans, why people are actually looking into it, how a psychedelic brand can and should look like these days and we talk about Alice and Suzanne's personal journeys, and how a scientist and a fashion and luxury expert got the world of psychedelics. And yes, we met in Paris and had the best eclair ever.

  • In today's episode I present you our first Psychedelic Morning Show, Vol.1. A great live podcast collaboration I did with Joe Moore, from Psychedelics Today at the Psychedelic Science conference by MAPS in Denver, this June.

  • This episode is in German, and there are reasons why. Since my guest today is Finn Age Hänsel, founder of Sanity Group, I thought it was time to give an update in german, what actually has happened and maybe will be happing in a near decriminalised cannabis and psychedelic future. Finn and I talk about how cannabis could treat ADHD in grown ups and I am very grateful that Finn is sharing his own story here. We talk about why are Germans terrified of substances and compounds and why we should stop using the word DRUGS all together. We also talk about why every Cannabis and Psychedelic company has the duty to help destigmatizing cannabis and psychedelics Finn himself is a German consultant and entrepreneur. He is the founder of the Berliner Berg brewery and Sanity Group, the former CEO of the moving company Movinga. He is also a member of the federal board of the Bundesverband Deutscher Start-ups e.V.Finn was born in Flensburg, he founded his first company at the age of 17 with an online store for secondhand sportswear He joined the Junge Union and after graduating from high school in 2001, received a scholarship from the Konrad Adenauer Foundation, which he used to study business administration at the Technical University Bergakademie Freiberg. In 2010, Hänsel founded the online retailer The Iconic. He also took on the position of Marketing Director at the investment company Rocket Internet in Australia the following year. After returning to germany, Finn worked for high end accelerators and consulting companies. Since 2002 Finn had campaigned for the decriminalization of cannabis as a member of Junge Union. After cannabis and cannabinoids were approved as medicinal products in Germany, Hänsel entered the distribution of medical cannabis. In 2018, he and Fabian Friede founded Sanity Group, which supplies pharmacies and drugstores with cannabidiol products. Two years later, the company joined forces with Aphria and Cannacare to launch the industry association Pro CBD, which they use to raise awareness about cannabis. And yes, Snoop Dog is one of his investors!

  • This is one of the nerdiest episode at the TNHC so far, but also one that’s really necessary right now. In this episode I am talking about AI and Psychedelics with the amazing AI expert Nicole Büttner, Founder & CEO of Merantix Momentum. Merantix believes that to unlock the profound potentials of AI, a collaborative approach is needed. My second guest is the great Sergio Pérez Rosal, MD, part of the MIND Fundation and the CEO and Medical Director at OVID Clinics in Berlin, an established clinic in Berlin that works with Ketamine. What is the connection between psychedelics and AI? Is there one? It seems pretty much so. “Sam Altman, chief executive of OpenAI, is chairman of a start-up (Journey Colab) that aims to tap into the promise that psychedelic drugs have shown in clinical trials — and make them broadly available for people who suffer from mental health and drug-use disorders. The man bringing artificial intelligence to the masses through the viral chatbot ChatGPT wants to revolutionise mental health care and addiction treatment with psychedelic drugs”. writes The Washington Post.There are more things to address which I did with my great panel happening at Soho House Berlin a few weeks ago. So the three of us talk about if we need psychedelics to understand AI. And if AI will be a really productive drug developer ? And there is more: Can AI give you a spiritual experience? And will we need additional dimensions and tools to understand out future all together ? God, there are so many questions.

  • Lauren Taus has become quite a name in the psychedelic world. She is based in Los Angeles and is a licensed psychotherapist practicing Ketamine-assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) in Los Angeles, California. She integrates modern science and ancient wisdom to support personal transformation and much needed systemic change. She started “Inbodied Life” as a private psychotherapy practice, and it blossomed into a group practice that is also a platform for education through in-person, experiential trainings and retreats. Lauren sits also on the advisory board of Journey Clinical, an amazing psychedelic company based in NYC.

    To me, Lauren is one of the most interesting and also important people in the new psychedelic space. Her social media language is really speaking to me, since she has a great way to really get into the important questions around psychedelics: how does change actually look like? On a daily basis ? Why do we all need TO, which means “time out” and how psychedelics can support us with that. We address Laurens way from anorexia to healing and her way through the 12 steps program, we talk about her about her acid trip with her dad, a doctor, who now works with her And how it works, if your family is starting to look into psychedelics too. And of course we talk about how a psychedelic journey can bring fun to our lives. Something I feel we should also talk about more often and with Lauren this is possible.

  • We finally can reveal what we were working on last month, besides the first TNHC retreat.Together with the Canadian company Dimensions, we will Co-Create psychedelic retreats in Europe, starting this autumn in the Netherlands with magic truffle experiences. Dimensions offers safe and legal plant medicine-assisted experiences for personal growth and well-being.In December last year I was a guest at the Dimensions retreat and this changed my perspective on the topic of psychedelics, cannabis, retreats and the importance of somatic work. I Do think that cannabis can offer psychedelic insights too, helping you to heal on a really deep level. Let me quickly introduce Dimensions. This is a place to reconnect, an opportunity to heal and a path to lasting transformation. Whatever your intention. Dimensions invites you to unlock your potential for well-being while experiencing warm hospitality in luxurious natural settings.So of course I wanted to chat with the CEO of Dimensions, Christopher Dawson and the COO Andrew Galloway about their personal plant medicine journey, the idea of Cannabis retreats and cannabis as a ceremony, the importance of science informed and trauma informed retreats and of course we will outline how the New Health Club and Dimensions and the Co-Creation for a strong network of retreats in Europe can look like.https://dimensionsretreats.com/

  • My guest today is Cindy Gallop or Lucinda Lee Gallop. And she is quite something! I wanted to have Cindy on the show, because she engaged on a psychedelic journey (with 62) not because of mental health reasons. She embarked on a truffle journey, just out of very simple curiosity. And lust for life. And resetting perspectives. To me Cindy’s case also has an element for future ideas around longevity: what happens, if we keep our brain young? And how will this affect our body? Cindy says about herself to be “boringly drug resistant” but after her experience , things, aka her life changed. Cindy says. “ What it did just reinforce for me was a sense of history and the broadness of humanity. And the importance in the future, looking into the void, of finding light and connections.” Cindy Gallop I would say, is a real de-stigmatisation pro, a genius if it comes to tell it like things are. And then make them market ready. You guessed it, Cindy was an incredible advertiser, a female Don Draper, and we had many conversations over dinner about the rebranding or re-naming of psychedelics. Cindy studied English literature at Oxford University, receiving an MA in English language and literature. She was an English advertising consultant, founder and former chair of the US branch of advertising firm Bartle Bogle Hegarty, worked on accounts like Coca Cola, Ray Ban and Polaroid, In 2003, Gallop won the Advertising Woman of the Year award from Advertising Women of New York She is also the the founder of the companies IfWeRanTheWorld and MakeLoveNotPorn. According to the TED blog, Gallop's TEDTalk "Make Love Not Porn" was one of the "most talked about presentations'' at the 2009 TED conference. She founded her own brand and business innovation consultancy, Cindy Gallop LLC, in 2006.
