In this episode of the Psychedelic Mom Podcast, host Michaela Carlin interviews Quilley Powers, an 81-year-old 5-MeO-DMT facilitator with a rich history in psychedelic exploration for over six decades. Quilley delves into the significant role psychedelics have played in her approach to grief, loss, and her practice in hospice care, offering a unique perspective on the aging process, wisdom, and enlightenment.
She discusses how her personal experiences, including the tragic loss of her son, led her to work with psychedelics in a more sacred way, her approach to serving medicine as a “crone” in a youth-centric society, and the importance of set and setting in psychedelic therapy.
Michaela and Quilley also address the ethical considerations of serving a powerful medicine like 5-MeO-DMT, especially with respect to age and preparedness and the role of a facilitator in ensuring safe and meaningful experiences.
