Help Make MDMA A Medicine | Feeding Frenzy #25

Over the last few years, I've become invested in the research of mental health conditions. One area I had not expected to play a roll was psychedelics to aid as a new tool to help people when other methods prove ineffective. I have people close to me that have forms of treatment-resistant anxiety and depression. I know the struggles are genuine. With MDMA on the edge of FDA approval, this could be a big step towards helping people get access to and provide lasting benefits to leading the life they want to live.

Listen, Learn, Humanize | Feeding Frenzy #23

As with last weeks' Feeding Frenzy being dedicated to understanding the murder of George Floyd. I continue to do what I always do. I read, I listen, and I research. I see the protests as a reaction to long-standing trauma left by the legacy slavery on the United States. I am not here to offer a solution, but instead, I hope to shed light on what has helped me understand the complex story. 

For me, I've always believed in nuance, that's why I enjoy long-form podcasts. You can learn more about someone's hopes, dreams, and struggles. In short, in nuanced conversation, you can humanize anyone. No matter how much I may never be able understand a different experience than mine, I can understand their story because deep down it's not much different than mine.

Black Lives Matter.
