"It Changed Me As A Human Being": Psychedelics for Older Adults, with Scott Wright

What happens when a 68-year-old has a psychedelic experience and decides it's not too late to change everything?

Scott Wright joins Jason Najum on the Human Journeys Podcast to share how a single profound psychedelic journey in his late 60s cracked him open and sent him on a mission to document the stories of older adults doing the same. His upcoming film is a testament to the idea that healing has no age limit.
