Kevin Matthews is spearheading the decriminalization of psilocybin mushrooms in Denver, Colorado. He is in the process of drafting a referendum to be voted upon by the citizens of Denver later this year. Kevin’s perspective is that of a military veteran and a modern American who sees the need for better therapy for PTSD, depression, death anxiety for the terminally ill, and many more mental challenges. Kevin makes the case that better therapy includes the controlled, clinical use of substances, such as psilocybin, that have previously been feared or misunderstood by the mainstream. In this podcast, we explore Kevin’s unique path from West Point Military Academy to the forefront of The Denver Psilocybin Initiative.

Lessons on bouncing back, disease, coping with losing a spouse, and the process of aging with personal trainer and author, Lisa Torch.

I refer to Lisa as a renaissance woman. The term fits in multiple ways. She does many things, first of all, she’s been an entrepreneur, an author, a songwriter, a ballerina, a pilates teacher (before it was cool) and most recently, a certified personal trainer and health coach who is ready to support anybody in coming out of whatever deep valley they’ve found themselves in. The other definition of renaissance applies too. She’s been in the gutters of life before, maybe even considered throwing in the towel and accepting a less than inspiring fizzle of aging, sickness, and boredom. But no… that is not how her story is ending.

It's safe to say Aydin Mohseni is a genius. He works and studies in the field of mathematical philosophy. It's not his lofty intellectual pursuits though that I most admire - rather it is his ability to converse about these topics with non-academics, his compassion for other people, and his love of life. He was brought up during a time of war in Iran, and has since been through many character changes and gained wisdom along the way. It's this wisdom about life, love and people that we explore today.
