This is a special one, guys. It features my epic friends Tah and Kole. If you don't know their work yet, they host the Psychedelic Coach podcast and are co-creators of The Condor Approach, which is a psychedelic-informed certification for therapists, physicians, life coaches, and health experts.

In addition to their next-level program, we unpack the many complexities behind this rapidly expanding field – from parsing language and potential legality outcomes to questions you should ask a facilitator candidate before embarking on your own journey.

They are committed to building business structures that are contribution-driven and committed to reciprocity for indigenous communities. This dynamic duo is up to some great work guys, and we're gonna dig into it right here. Stick around for the outro as they surprise me with a live musical performance to close us out.

Some of you will, no doubt, want to explore Tah and Kole's psychedelic-informed coaching program. You can do that by visiting lukestorey.com/tahkole. Use the code LUKE250 for $250 off the course!

MAGNESIUM BREAKTHROUGH. According to the American Psychological Association, chronic stress is linked to the six leading causes of death. When most people think of stress, they think of their job, traffic, tense relationships, current events, things like that. But the root of so much of the stress we experience comes down to a deficiency in one overlooked nutrient — magnesium. So, if you're ready to help your body deal with stress, instead of putting a band-aid on it after the fact, you’re going to want some Magnesium Breakthrough.
