Welcome to the Psychedelic Conversations Podcast!

In this episode, we speak with Allison Wilson, founder of The Hope Project, for a deeply moving conversation about healing, community, and the often-unseen experiences of veteran spouses. Susan Guner speaks with Allison about her personal journey into the psychedelic healing space, sparked by witnessing her husband’s transformation after his own treatment and later embarking on her own path of healing. Together, we explore how The Hope Project supports spouses and family members of veterans through community-based retreats, preparation, and integration, emphasizing that healing the individual also heals the family unit. This episode highlights the power of being seen, heard, supported and reminds us that there is always hope.

About Allison:Allison Wilson, wife to a former Navy SEAL of 16 years, mother to 5 children and advocate for Veteran Women and Spouses, founded The Hope Project after a beautiful retreat in Costa Rica. Allison founded Hope after years of being at home and holding the family together during her husband’s service. She realized very quickly after her psychedelic journey that all her traumas and secondary PTSD became purposeful in birthing The Hope Project. Allison comes here with a background in non-profit work and event management. She is always available for a phone call and wants every woman to feel enough. Allison speaks to every single woman that goes through The Hope Project and follows on their journeys as a mentor and a friend. In her down time, Allison enjoys living in the mountains in CO with her husband and children. She lives on a small farm outside of Denver where she gets to unwind, relax and enjoy many animals including dogs, cats, horses, chickens, ducks and goats!
