In this episode of the Label Free Podcast, host Deanna Radulescu interviews Rob Grover and Gary Logan, the founders of the Journeymen Collective. The Journeymen Collective is a company that offers luxury guided magic mushroom retreats at their center in British Columbia, Canada. They cater to CEOs, entrepreneurs, athletes, actors, couples, and small groups who are interested in self-discovery and personal development through psychedelic plant-based medicine.

Rob and Gary share their personal journeys that led them to create the Journeymen Collective. Rob, a coach, felt that something was missing in his work and personal life, which led him to explore the healing potential of psychedelic medicine. Gary, with a background in theater and mind-body-conscious awareness training, also felt the need to address his own grief and depression. Both of them found profound healing and transformation through working with a medicine man and decided to bring this experience to others.

The hosts discuss common misconceptions about mushroom therapy, such as the fear of losing control or losing one's mind. They emphasize that the journey is about finding one's true self and letting go of control to allow a greater power to flow through. They also address concerns about addiction, stating that the process they guide people through is not addictive and that most people can benefit from just one journey.

The episode delves into the power of psychedelics in making profound shifts in one's life. Rob and Gary explain that many high-achieving individuals seek their services because they feel disconnected and are looking for a deeper sense of purpose and connection. They believe that providing high-level support and a safe, curated environment allows these individuals to rest, do deep inner work, and ultimately have a greater impact in their personal and professional lives.

The hosts describe the process of visiting the Journeymen Collective. Interested individuals can apply through their website and have a conversation with Rob and Gary to determine if it's a good fit. If accepted, there is a four-week preparation period before the in-person experience, which includes two ceremonies and two full days of integration. The hosts emphasize that the experience is highly personalized and tailored to each individual's needs and intentions.

Legal and medical considerations are also addressed. The hosts state that the legality of magic mushrooms varies by jurisdiction, but they focus on the fact that mushrooms grow naturally in the forest and do not give it much concern. They also conduct a medical screening to ensure that individuals are physically, mentally, and emotionally fit for the experience.

In the closing remarks, Rob advises listeners to ask themselves what the people in their lives truly need and want from them in order to have a greater impact in their relationships, companies, and communities. Gary encourages listeners to quiet the monkey mind and think through the heart while loving through the mind.

Overall, this episode provides valuable insights into the transformative potential of psychedelic plant-based medicine and the unique approach offered by the Journeymen Collective. Listeners are encouraged to visit the Journeymen Collective's website to learn more and apply for a transformative journey.

An Interview with Ben Miller. Searching: The Wanderlust of a 60-Year Old Gay Man from Pender to Pittsburgh, From Lincoln to LA, and Many Points in Between.

Ben Miller and I discuss his interesting sixty year journey to where he is today.  He shares some of his spiritual practices which he uses to find peace and ground himself.  And he discusses a long term struggle with addiction and how he has managed to stay on the upper road in his journey for many, many years.

I was introduced to Ben by our mutual friend Larendee Roos.  She talks about Ben in a transcript that she wrote many years ago, detailing her amazing story.  She wrote:
 "... My lifelong soul mate and friend, Ben flew in from LA to stay with my children and me. I will always think of him when I smell bacon. He loved my children and held me in his arms as I slowly unraveled and pulled myself back together again. To this day, he always knows just when I need him. Within a few hours he is on the phone calling or in my city to hold me..."

After spending just a few hours with Ben, I get why she feels this way about him.  His gentle spirit and his heart are obvious in this short interview....

Ben Miller has been an actor, director, writer, Alexander technique teacher and college professor.  Right now he's working on a screenplay that has been gurgling in his brain for years.  He strives to be kind. He's opinionated.

When Dr. Turner left the operating room to do research full-time he was sitting far more than he was used to. He realized he needed to create a better sitting solution to push back against the terrible chairs that Big Chair and ergonomists have been selling for decades. Working with a team of other doctors, designers and body work experts they created an entirely new way to sit that worked with the body rather than against it. They believe that the body’s perfect internal ergonomics, its skeleton, is a far better route to perfect posture than “ergonomic” chairs that try to shore up the body with external supports which serve only to distort one’s natural posture, leading to a host of problems.
