These early encounters helped him confront feelings of shame and guilt instilled by his upbringing, leading to a deeper exploration of consciousness and personal growth.

making difficult decisions in leadership roles.


Taking the first steps

For those interested in exploring psychedelics, Paul recommended starting with

research, setting clear intentions, and working with trusted providers. He emphasized the importance of patience and taking the time to navigate this new landscape with curiosity and care.
