    EP21: Jewish Psychedelic Science with Dr. Roman Palitsky

    Rabbi Zac speaks to Dr. Roman Palitsky, Director of Research Projects for Emory Spiritual Health and a Research Psychologist for Emory University School of Medicine. Zac and Roman discuss the launch of a joint research project between Emory and Shefa, Jewish Journeys, the first population study of Jewish attitudes, practices, and needs towards psychedelics, generously funded by Common Era. Dr Roman Palitsky's Bio: Roman Palitsky, MDiv, Ph.D. is Assistant Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences and Director of Research Projects in Spiritual Health at Emory University, and he is faculty in the Emory Center for Psychedelics and Spirituality. His research applies a bio-psycho-social-spiritual approach to improving behavioral interventions by ensuring that the treatments we offer are responsive to care seekers’ cultural needs and strengths. His work in psychedelic treatment research reflects these commitments by seeking to make psychedelic therapies rigorous, effective, and accountable to the many patient populations who might benefit from them, and to support those care seekers who may experience adverse effects.

    EP15: Awakening to Ourselves with Robert Ansin

    Rabbi Zac speaks to Robert Ansin, CEO of Healing Hearts Changing Minds, about his experience of awakening to love and unity after high-dose psilocybin experiences, and his commitment to support marginal communities in the psychedelic field. Robert Ansin Biography: Massachusetts-born entrepreneur Robert Ansin has always been driven by two passions: to innovate and to give back. After attending three life-changing psilocybin retreats in Jamaica, he was inspired to create Healing Hearts Changing Minds. Ansin now wants to give others the opportunity to process their own traumas and unpack the roots of their mental health problems―and then go back to their communities to spread the healing. Robert is the proud father of two children, Indigo and Olly. This podcast is offered as a free community resource by Shefa: Jewish Psychedelic Support.

    EP14: God in Your Body with Dr.Hillary McBride

    Rabbi Zac speaks with psychologist, author, researcher and podcaster Dr. Hillary McBride. Zac and Hillary speak about the notion and practice of embodiment, connecting with Divinity, and working with psychedelics  as means of coming into relationships with one’s body. You can read more about Hillary's work and buy her amazing books here. Dr. Hillary McBride's Bio: Hillary McBride, PhD, is a Registered Psychologist, researcher, podcastor, and author, but underneath all of that she is a human, who loves asking questions about what it means to be human, how we heal and grow, and what it means to be a body. She publishes written works for community and academic audiences about embodiment, trauma, eating disorders, mental health and spirituality; her bestselling book The Wisdom Of Your Body was released in 2021, Practices for Embodied Living was released in early 2024, and her next book Holy Hurt: understanding and healing from spiritual trauma will be released in spring 2025. Her award winning CBC podcast Other People's Problems was mentioned in the Wall Street Journal and New York Times as essential listening, and she is on faculty with the Psychedelic Somatic Institute, and the co-developer of Katalyst Mental Health Ketamine Assisted Therapy program. What makes her feel alive is her daughter's laugh, her love for her partner and close friends, asking unanswerable questions, and spending time in or near the ocean.
