Hello friends! For those of you who appreciate the episodes about advocacy, regulations, and the legalities around increasing access to psychedelics - this one is for you! We spoke with Spencer Hawkswell, CEO of Therapsil, about what a world with more (and equal) access to psilocybin therapy would look like. We also chatted about the very impressive accomplishments that Therapsil has accomplished for the movement.

What we talked about:

  • How Spencer got involved in this space and Therapsil
  • The milestones that Therapsil have accomplished in helping patients gain access to psilocybin therapy in Canada
  • Working with compassionate Health Minister Patty Hadju in Ottawa, Canada to grant patient access
  • Compassionate access through section 56 is now legal in Canada
  • The process of legalizing Psilocybin in Canada and working through the politics
  • The emotional and psychological experience of end of life distress
  • How Psilocybin helps people find peace with death
  • Preparation and Integration modalities that help patients process what they experience
  • How increased access may look in the future and ensuring that both patients AND health care practitioners are prepared for increased access
  • The Charter of Rights & Freedoms and psychedelic medicine use
  • Why clinical access points to psychedelics have more of a reach than the underground movement
  • Simple things that we and the government can enact today to make access easier for those who need it
