    Dr. Rick Doblin: President of MAPS - Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies

    In this episode, we welcome Rick Doblin, Ph.D., the Founder and President of the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS). He received his doctorate in Public Policy from Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government, where he wrote his dissertation on the regulation of the medical uses of psychedelics and marijuana and his Master’s thesis on a survey of oncologists about smoked marijuana vs. the oral THC pill in nausea control for cancer patients. His undergraduate thesis at New College of Florida was a 25-year follow-up to the classic Good Friday Experiment, which evaluated the potential of psychedelic drugs to catalyze religious experiences. He also conducted a thirty-four year follow-up study to Timothy Leary’s Concord Prison Experiment. Rick studied with Dr. Stanislav Grof and was among the first to be certified as a Holotropic Breathwork practitioner. His professional goal is to help develop legal contexts for the beneficial uses of psychedelics and marijuana, primarily as prescription medicines but also for personal growth for otherwise healthy people, and eventually to become a legally licensed psychedelic therapist. He founded MAPS in 1986, and currently resides in Boston with his wife and puppy, with three empty rooms from his children who have all graduated college and begun their life journeys. Learn more about Rick by listening to his Origin Story, watching his TED Talk, and watching his SSDP talk about lessons for political activism from a series of his psychedelic experiences.

    Shannon Morehead: Sacred Wisdom Belongs to Everyone

    In this episode, we dive deep with Shannon Morehead, a former Registered Nurse with over 30 years in the healing arts and psychedelics. Shannon’s journey is as diverse as it is transformative, having trained with sacred traditions like União Do Vegetal (UDV) and Shipibo, which have guided her work as a plant sacrament facilitator, herbalist, and integration coach. She’s also an ordained minister, birth doula, and medicine woman dedicated to helping others overcome trauma and reconnect with their higher selves. Shannon shares her path from traditional medicine to the healing power of psychedelics, revealing how she’s personally overcome chronic pain and asthma. Through her struggles, Shannon has learned the powerful link between physical and emotional pain. In this episode, we discuss the distinctions between Brazilian and Peruvian ayahuasca practices, the concept of a dieta, and the idea that sacred wisdom belongs to everyone. As Shannon puts it, “There’s no copyright on sacred wisdom. When practicing with authenticity and originality, we’re an amalgam of these different traditions.” Join us as we explore the profound wisdom of plant medicine and Shannon’s heartfelt insights on healing and integration. Listen now and discover how embracing authenticity in sacred traditions can unlock deep healing and transformation. Find Shannon’s work at Great Spirit Farm and follow her journey on Instagram.
