What do you do when your mind is no longer your own?
Jon and Will sit down with Daniel Carcillo - former NHL enforcer turned mental health advocate - to explore the transformative potential of psilocybin therapy (the active ingredient in magic mushrooms). Daniel shares his deeply personal healing journey from trauma, concussions, and identity loss to clarity, mindfulness, and purpose through the use of psychedelic mushrooms. Together, they unpack the science, stigma, and spirituality behind psilocybin, the role of community in recovery, and how finding presence can unlock emotional breakthroughs. This is a vulnerable, data-informed conversation on healing, letting go, and building a future where natural medicine is accessible to all.
Feeling stuck? If you need help getting out of your rut, Will can help - head to willnotfear.com to learn more about his coaching to get you off the hamster wheel and start making better decisions.
