  • Fireside Project is so honored and grateful to have the support of the The Bob & Renee Parsons Foundation. They are one of the most innovative foundations in the psychedelic field and beyond, having supported numerous truly groundbreaking researchers and nonprofits. We're so grateful that they see the radical potential of our core services, including our industry leading psychedelic coaching program, which provides journeyers with critical long-term support as they prepare for and integrate psychedelic experiences.

    Do I know any recruiters, or connections who have worked with recruiters/head hunters they love? I'd like to identify potential ED candidates for Fireside Project from outside of the psychedelic field with expertise in scaling digital services, ideally from industries such as digital health/mental health tech. Thank you in advance!

    At long last, I've published another newsletter! This one will be the first in an occasional series called, "Observations of a Psychedelic Coach." This installment is devoted to two somewhat counterintuitive signs that we, or our clients, may be ready to let go of patterns that are no longer serving us: Trickster energy and utter boredom. The universe is a trickster. It loves to laugh at itself and its creation. For me, the trickster archetype is a manifestation of that sense of humor. As we work to let go of patterns, the ability to laugh at them can show their weakened hold on us. This is a powerful moment of liberation. So, too, are moments of utter boredom and even outright exhaustion. As you see a pattern unfurl before you, you may notice yourself realizing that you’re just so, utterly, totally, bored by it. You see the path presented to you, and you notice that walking down it holds no more allure. You know where it leads. You know where it’s twists and turns take you, and the impact they’ll inflict on you. As Ricky Gervais said in The Office, “Been there, done that, bought the T-shirt, next.” Recognizing trickster energy and utter boredom in your own process, or in your clients' integration journeys, is a way to celebrate progress. These are signals that a pattern's grip is weakening. In this way, their appearance can be a cause for hope. I invite you to read and subscribe to my not-so-cleverly named newsletter, White Now. https://lnkd.in/eXjgmacY

  • Greetings, community! We are thrilled to announce the launch of an exciting new offering—Fireside-Certified Psychedelic Coaching! This is a new, paid service where clients get to pick the coach who’s right for them from a database of coaches based on photos, bios, and areas of focus. Clients then receive long-term, scheduled support by video from the moment they say yes to a journey until their integration feels complete. Our coaches are AMAZING! They've all gone through a 30-step, 300-hour certification process, which begins with a full year on our Psychedelic Support Line. One of things that makes our coaching program unique is that we train our coaches, hire them as employees, then provide them with rigorous, ongoing supervision based on a clinical model. Head on over to our beautiful new website and book a session or a free consult with one of our coaches!
