In this episode, Wil sits down with Mira Funk, LCSW (she/her), a Harvard-educated queer, nonbinary psychotherapist and psychedelic guide specializing in 5-MeO-DMT, N,N-DMT, and salvia divinorum. Mira brings a rare “neuroscience geek meets sacred mystery” approach to psychedelic healing and integration—bridging somatic work, nondual spirituality, and practical trauma-informed care.

Together, Wil and Mira explore what 5-MeO-DMT is (and what it isn’t), why dosing and context matter so much, and how this medicine can support deep healing—especially around fear, shame, the nervous system, and identity. They also discuss gender liberation, the body’s role in trauma storage and release, and why Mira is passionate about ethical and precise approaches to working with 5-MeO-DMT.

In This Episode, We Explore

• The “geek vs. woo” false split—and why both languages can point to the same mystery
• 5-MeO-DMT vs. N,N-DMT vs. “DMT” as a broader tryptamine family
• What 5-MeO-DMT can feel like: expansion, presence, release, and the “deep tissue massage” metaphor
• Trauma-informed step-wise sessions: “dip a toe,” integrate, then gradually deepen
• The “full release” / unity-consciousness territory—and why it’s not the only point of healing
• Fear of death, “annihilation anxiety,” and the ripple effects of practicing surrender
• Wil shares a powerful one-on-one, ritualized death/rebirth experience in an MDMA-assisted therapy session
• Psychedelics and gender exploration: shame, freedom, identity, and the paradox of nonduality + authenticity
• Mira’s experience of gender liberation and family repair—including staying in relationship without abandoning self
• Rectal administration of 5-MeO-DMT: what it is, how it’s handled ethically/privately, and why it can be uniquely pelvic/root-focused for some people
• A grounded take on “code of reality” laser experiments: perception, priming, meaning-making, and humility
• Why Mira believes 5-MeO-DMT can be a powerful option for both first-timers and experienced psychonauts—when held safely
