Chris Schembra does it again! This 3x vet of the Culture Changers podcast is letting us in on his psychedelic-assisted ketamine experience. While ketamine has a controversial and complicated history, the data on a medically supervised approach is showing to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and other treatment-resistant conditions.
Chris, known by USA Today as the Gratitude Guru is a best-selling author, founding member of the Culture Council for Rolling Stone Magazine, and the founder and CEO of 7:47 Club serving execs and employees of many Fortune 500 companies.
