EP. 201: Today’s guest is Paul Austin of Third Wave. This episode is all about microdosing psychedelics, so I guess this is a bit of a trigger warning. If this is something that you don't feel comfortable hearing about, talking about, discussing, then I would skip this episode, because we talk a lot about psilocybin. We talk about psychedelics as a whole, talk a lot about Paul Austin and his work with Third Wave, where their mission is to nurture the emerging psychedelic ecosystem by providing individuals with research-based education, access to vetted providers and membership in their global community, a safe space to ask questions, share experiences and connect with others on a similar journey.
