Today we talk to Kelsey Ramsden. Kelsey is an entrepreneur, author and speaker but if you ask her, she’d say she’s a creator. By 26, Kelsey was running her own construction company and was ranked the top female entrepreneur of the year by Profit magazine - 2 years in a row. Yet despite the financial success and industry accolades, she had never felt so depressed and alone. Kelsey is vulnerable and honest as she shares her struggles with mental health and how a psychedelic therapist helped her find the clarity she needed. Since then in typical Kelsey fashion, she’s gone on to start two new companies on the forefront of psychedelic mental and sexual health. We talk about the misconceptions around psychedelics, the growing body of research for treating depression, anxiety and opioid addiction - and how getting easy access to legalized therapy is closer than you think.Connect with KelseyWebsiteLinkedInPlay is the new PHD: Kelsey Ramsden at TEDxKelownaBook: Success Hangover: Ignite your next act.
