Richard Zwicky speaks with Jill Sitnick, a psychedelic integration coach, who shares their experiences with MDMA-assisted therapy for PTSD. The discussion delves into the effectiveness of MDMA therapy compared to traditional methods, the ongoing FDA approval delays, and the vital research being conducted by veterans associations. Sitnick also sheds light on the bureaucratic hurdles hindering approval and the anticipation for future clinical trials.

Beyond therapy, the conversation explores Sitnick's advocacy efforts, including their YouTube channel, "The Journey Sage," which aims to educate and offer realistic perspectives on psychedelic-assisted therapy. The importance of preparation, support, and integration in the healing process is emphasized. The complex nature of trauma and how psychedelic therapy helps process past events, allowing individuals to gain distance and reframe their beliefs, is also discussed.

Sitnick also shares their plans to offer psilocybin and iboga retreats in Canada and Mexico, focusing on self-growth for individuals seeking to address past trauma.
