My guest today, Ronan Levy, is the co-founder of Field Trip Health, the world's largest provider of psychedelic-assisted therapies, with twelve incredible clinics across the globe providing truly life-changing modern treatments. We talk about his journey into psychedelic therapy (and swap tales of our own medicine journeys), go deep on the neurological benefits involved, hash out the complexities of providing these modalities in safe and legal settings, and preview his upcoming documentary, Ordinary Trip. As upside-down as the world seems to be right now, it's truly inspiring to meet people like Ronan who are doing such impactful work, and to see the evolution of alternative therapies like the ones we discuss here.  Whether you’re just psychedelic-curious or a well-traveled psychonaut, this dialogue has a lot to offer. And for those of you who find yourself inspired by Ronan's story and are interested in a journey of your own, visit lukestorey.com/FieldTrip to find out how to take advantage of their cutting-edge therapies.
