Episode 8: Jessica Cadoch - Being A Psychedelic Liaison | Maya Health | Anthropology
In this episode, we talk with Jessica Cadoch.
She is the Research and Operations Manager at Maya Public-benefit Corporation.
Jessica is a liaison working to bridge the for-profit world with not-for-profit organizations while advocating for increased accessibility and knowledge on psychedelics for the general public.
In our conversation, we cover how Jessica’s personal experiences got her interested in psychedelics and lead her to earn a Master’s degree in Medical Anthropology.
We also discuss the volunteer positions she’s worked in, including MAPS and the Montreal Psychedelic Society, which helped her build an essential professional network and valuable career skills.
Finally, we conclude the episode with recommendations on how to get involved in not-for-profit organizations and a discussion on Jessica’s hopes for the future of the psychedelic field.
