Welcome to the Psychedelic Conversations Podcast!

Episode 153:In this episode of Psychedelic Conversations, we explore Oli's journey into the psychedelic space, from his early influences in music and culture to his work in education and advocacy. Oli shares his insights on the evolving landscape of psychedelics, the creative and therapeutic potentials of LSD, and the importance of quality control in the booming functional mushroom industry. We also discuss the role of psychedelics in shaping consciousness, the differences between recreational, therapeutic, and ritualistic use, and how the UK compares to other countries in its approach to these substances. If you’ve ever wondered about the deeper connection between psychedelics, creativity, and personal growth, this episode is for you!
