    2.9 - Kerry Soorley

    Kerry is a nurse of 44 years, mother of four and grandmother to nine, specialising in palliative care. She had suffered depression, addictions and suicidal ideation all her life. “Trauma by omission” Gabor Mate calls it. Every antidepressant, therapy, book, course and seminar failed and just left her feeling hopeless and wanting to die even though she was so blessed.
    At age 58 she had an opportunity to try DMT. It reset her brain and gave her joy, self-love and connection for the first time in her life. It’s not called the ‘God molecule’ for nothing. She is committed and passionate to helping others receive the benefits of psychedelic therapy in a safe environment and sees great potential for palliative care and end-of-life treatment as well.

    TW: Suicide
    Tony Mantz aka “Jack the Bear” has been in the music industry since 1981 working in all facets of it , including being a radio announcer on MMM FM Melbourne for the duration of the 90’s. He has had an interest in psychedelics since first hearing about them on The Joe Rogan Experience podcast back in 2009.
    In Jan 2020 he had the most transformative experience of his life through an intense weekend of carefully administered and facilitated ceremonies with an experienced practitioner using 5MEO DMT. This medicine has helped Tony overcome his early childhood trauma.
    He now lives his life free of addiction, allowed him to heal the long standing rift with his children, become more aware of his thoughts and be a more empathetic and compassionate person. It is this journey Tony wishes to share in the hope of inspiring others.
