Chessa and I go way back. She is a Biblical scholar-turned elementary school therapist and an all-around thoughtful, compassionate, and charming human being.

A clip from episode 02 of the Mapping Minds podcast featuring Erica Siegal of MAPS (the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies). Everyone is excited about M**A therapy, but few realize how complex good psychedelic research is. Erica explains some of these challenges:
"That's why it's very complicated. Obviously, there are only so many study sites and you have to live within a certain radius of that study site to be able to make it to these appointments. And then also have a support person who can drive you to and from these medicine sessions. If you, for example, are a military veteran with PTSD living in San Diego and Los Angeles is the closest site, driving two and a half hours isn't going to be feasible and it's not going to be successful... It's not so much about whether you would qualify; it's about time and circumstance and set and setting."

Albert Camus was an author known for his significant contributions to 20th century philosophy. He's most famous for his Myth of Sisyphus, a reimagining of the Greek tale.
