#39 Gabe Charalambides: Psychedelic Entrepreneurship

Psilocybin retreats and private sessions are presented through Odyssey founder Gabe Charalambides, who shifted from aerospace engineering to mental health and psychedelic entrepreneurship. The episode outlines how Odyssey operates in Oregon under the state’s psilocybin legalization framework, aiming to combine respect for tradition with an evidence-based and accessible approach to psilocybin-assisted work. Conversation themes include how meditation, Buddhism, and psychedelics connect to neuroplasticity, plus practical challenges in designing retreats for different client needs such as bereavement and leadership development.
