    Ep. 12 - Psychedelic Entrepreneurship and 2CE wormholes with Cosmic Orangutan Jordan Maas

    This is a special one folks. In this episode I wax poetic with old friend, and Cosmic Orangutan, Jordan Maas.Jordan is an old of mine from what feels like a past life where we worked together to build an empire of all natural toothpowder (The Dirt) and CBD infused everything (Jambo Superfoods) in a wacky, psychedelic infused, entrepreneurial adventure of knee-slapping and mind-altering proportions. We explore the profound impact of psychedelics on personal growth, entrepreneurship, and parenting, as well as memorable experiences, particularly a challenging 2CE trip Jordan had, and discuss how these experiences shape our perspectives on life and relationships. Our dialogue emphasizes the importance of being present, embracing chaos, and the unique bond formed between parents and children.
