With the right mindset and environment, psychedelic therapy is transforming lives by addressing the root causes of mental illness and fostering lasting positive impacts on individuals and communities. In this episode, Dr. Graham Taylor speaks with Josh Halu. Josh is the founder and CEO at The Psychedelic Exchange (PsycheX), an online platform for community support, education, and a therapist directory specifically for Psychedelic Psychotherapy. Josh is a dynamic leader committed to revolutionizing mental health care through the innovative use of psychedelic therapies. His background, steeped in military leadership from his time at West Point and as an Army Officer, fuels his dedication to a critical mission: bringing the number of veteran suicides down to zero. With his deep understanding of mental illnesses, including trauma, depression, and PTSD, as well as the unique challenges faced by veterans, Josh is pioneering new approaches in mental health care. He strives to transform the landscape of treatment and support for all, while destigmatizing the use of psychedelic medicines for mental wellness. We’re excited to have Josh with us to discuss psychedelic psychotherapy and his platform PsycheX that is creating a unified resource for qualified therapists specializing in psychedelic therapies, community support, and education.

We often internalize messages from mirroring that may not accurately reflect who we truly are. However, the beauty of group work lies in their ability to provide an accurate mirror for self-reflection. In this episode, Dr. Graham Taylor speaks with Tanya Cole-Lesnick. Tanya is a psychotherapist turned transformational coach whose journey from personal struggle to professional fulfillment fuels her mission to empower others. Tanya’s path began in her mid-twenties when she sought therapy to navigate love life challenges, initially grappling with shame and vulnerability. Embracing group therapy led to profound insights, culminating in both personal growth and a career shift from graphic design to social work. With nearly three decades of experience, she facilitates emotional growth through therapeutic groups and innovative coaching techniques. Her Activate coaching program empowers individuals to clear obstacles and build lives aligned with their deepest aspirations. Beyond coaching, Tanya offers life-changing retreats, inviting women to rediscover play, creativity, and connection. We’re excited to have Tanya with us to discuss clearing energetic clutter and the power of group work.

No one is going to care about us the same way that we are going to care about ourselves. In this episode, Dr. Graham Taylor and Dr. Lloyd Sederer will continue their conversation on Dr. Sederer's book, "Caught in the Crosshairs of American Healthcare." In our previous episode, we delved into the harmful effects of corporate influence on patient care, addressing issues such as declining quality of care, physician burnout, and moral injury. We also explored the significance of human connections in healthcare and the systemic challenges confronting the American healthcare system. In this installment, we'll further explore the adverse effects of financial control on medical decisions and clinical practices, highlighting how corporate ownership often prioritizes profit over patient well-being.

In a global comparison, the United States ranks poorly in key quality-of-life measures like longevity, preventable illnesses, and maternal and infant mortality. Despite its status, the nation grapples with high rates of chronic diseases and alarming per capita suicide figures. It's clear that significant changes are needed to address these pressing concerns. In this episode, Dr. Graham Taylor speaks with Dr. Lloyd Sederer. Lloyd, an Adjunct Professor at Columbia University School of Public Health, brings extensive experience in mental health leadership. With roles including Chief Medical Officer at the NYS Office of Mental Health and NYC's Mental Health Commissioner, as well as leadership positions at the American Psychiatric Association and Harvard's McLean Hospital, Lloyd has spearheaded significant mental health responses to events like 9/11 and Hurricane Sandy.

In celebration of our fourth anniversary, we’re re-releasing one of our favorite episodes from the past year. We’ve been taught to think of anxiety as though we have a mental disease. Anxiety is primarily a physiological reaction. If we can sympathize over those fight or flight moments, we can start to retrain your brain and manage that moment in a different way. In this episode, Dr. Graham Taylor speaks with Faust Ruggiero. Faust is a seasoned professional with nearly 40 years of experience in counseling and psychology. His career has spanned a wide array of settings, from clinics for deaf children to prisons and major corporations. As the President of the Community Psychological Center in Bangor, Pennsylvania, Faust developed the Process Way of Life counseling program, now featured in his award-winning book, “The Fix Your Anxiety Handbook”. This program offers a comprehensive approach, addressing over fifty internal human processes to help individuals overcome life's challenges. Faust's expertise has earned him recognition nationally and internationally, and he hosts the radio show “Fix It With Faust”. In 2023, he released the second installment of The Fix Yourself Empowerment Series, titled “The Fix Your Anxiety Handbook”. Faust is committed to improving lives through his innovative counseling and personal development programs. We’re excited to have Faust with us today to discuss anxiety, desperation, and his book “The Fix Your Anxiety Handbook”.
