Psychedelic Conversations | Glauber Loures de Assis - Psychedelic Parenthood

Welcome to the Psychedelic Conversations Podcast!

In this episode we discuss Glauber's role as a leader in the Santo Daime church in Brazil, the unique roots of ayahuasca religions, and the importance of integrating indigenous cosmologies into global psychedelic discourse. Glauber shares the challenges of building inclusive psychedelic communities and introduces us to the Psychedelic Parenthood initiative, which supports families navigating these spaces. We dive into the stigmas surrounding psychedelic parenting, the importance of harm reduction, and why families must be part of the psychedelic future. This is a powerful and thought-provoking conversation on community, tradition, and breaking taboos—especially around raising children in environments where plant medicines play a central role.
