Episode Synopsis

What would it take to bring psychedelic-assisted therapies fully into the mainstream of medicine?In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Jeannie Fontana to explore the vital importance of creating a state funding agency for psychedelic-assisted therapies. We draw from the groundbreaking California model for stem cell research, which transformed an underfunded, controversial area into a thriving, well-regulated field that now produces FDA-approved treatments.Dr. Fontana and I explore this vision called the T.R.E.A.T. initiative (Treatments, Research, Education, Access, and Therapies) could shape a future where healing with psychedelics is safe, ethical, and available to all.This conversation is about more than just funding—it’s about building a movement that integrates science, ethics, and compassion to transform mental health care for generations to come.We Also Discuss: ● The lessons from California’s stem cell research success● How dedicated funding accelerates breakthroughs into real therapies● The T.R.E.A.T. vision in building infrastructure and access● Setting high standards of safety and ethics in therapy● The collaboration between science and indigenous wisdom● Reducing stigma through education and public discourseKey Timestamps:[0:00:00] Welcome to The Radical Responsibility Podcast.[0:02:06] Finding therapy for loved ones that actually work.[0:07:54] How psychedelic-assisted therapy caught Jeannie’s attention.[0:08:58] Are psychedelics for everybody?[0:13:42] T-R-E-A-T (Treatments, Research, Education, Access, & Therapies)[0:24:29] Safety in psychedelic therapy.[0:29:17] The need for good psychedelic therapy facilitators.[0:37:11]  Indigenous plant medicine traditions.[0:45:07] Empowering persons to have agency over their well-being.[0:51:28] Ketamine-assisted therapy clinics concerns.[1:06:36] Shift in psychedelics awareness.Become a Heart Mind Community Member and access ALL our past and future summits plus a thriving private community: https://www.heartmind.co/podcastofferDownload your free Neuro-Somatic Mindfulness E-Book by Dr. Fleet Maull: https://www.heartmind.co/nsm-podcastOrder “Radical Responsibility” by Fleet Maull and get $1,088 in free bonuses today including courses and challenges: https://www.radicalresponsibilitybook.comConnect with Dr. Jeannie Fontana:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeannie-moller-fontana-md-phd-b2088797/Join our Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/hmisummitcommunity  Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heartmindinstituteFollow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/heartmindinstituteProduced by Evolved Podcasting - https://www.evolvedpodcasting.com
