Episode description

Melissa Lavasani is the Founder & CEO of Psychedelic Medicine Coalition. She was a healthy, happy wife and mother, pregnant with her second child, when she was overcome with debilitating depression that continued after her son was born. For several years Melissa tried to keep functioning even though she was struggling against suicidal thoughts. 

Melissa shares her story as someone who had never used a psychedelic in her life and was terrified of them, to finding healing for her depression and a shifted career advocating for others to have access to the treatment that saved her life.
