About Us

Erin Witter

Founder

I am an entrepreneur, community organizer, and psycho-spiritual coach who appreciates the consciousness-expanding potential of the responsible and respectful use of psychedelics.

My journey to self-discovery is founded in many heart-opening ayahuasca ceremonies practiced in the Shipibo lineage. Since then I’ve been embarking on a path to help others heal, recover and improve their relationships with themselves and with those around them. I’m excited to be a part of this growing community and honored to serve others on their journey to their true selves.

Find out more about me and my coaching practice at Manifest Mind Coaching.

Greg Shanken

Co-Founder

In 2021, my life dramatically transformed after I decided to stop using SSRIs and heal my depression and childhood trauma through psychedelic medicines. My journey helped me discover my passion and live my truth by serving the psychedelic healing ecosystem as a co-founder of the Psychedelic Business Association; an Ambassador for Proposition 122, which legalized natural psychedelic medicines in Colorado in 2022; a co-founder of the  Colorado Psychedelic Society, and serving on the board of An Empathic Society, a non-profit organization that provides peer supported integration circles.

I am also the founder & CEO of Gloss, a 12 year old web development and digital marketing agency with 16 employees based in Boulder, Colorado.

Unlocking The Potential Of Psychedelics For Healing & Growth

Mental Health Treatments

Psychedelics, such as psilocybin, ayahuasca, and Ibogaine have shown promising results in the treatment of mental health conditions like depression, anxiety, PTSD, and addiction. Decriminalization enables further research and clinical trials, leading to a better understanding of their therapeutic potential. This knowledge can contribute to the development of new and more effective treatments for mental health disorders.

Expanded Therapeutic Options

The use of psychedelics in therapy, often in conjunction with trained professionals, can provide individuals with new and alternative treatment options. By decriminalizing psychedelics, more people can explore these therapies under the guidance of experts, potentially leading to improved mental well-being, relationships and quality of life.

Spiritual & Personal Growth

Psychedelics have been used for centuries in various cultures for spiritual and personal development. By decriminalizing psychedelics, individuals interested in exploring their consciousness and personal growth can do so in a safer and more regulated environment. This can lead to transformative experiences, self-reflection, and a deeper understanding of one's true self.

Reducing Harm & Promoting Safety

Decriminalization can help shift the focus from criminal punishment to harm reduction and public health. Instead of individuals resorting to the black market for psychedelic substances, regulated access can ensure quality control, accurate dosing, and harm reduction measures. Education and responsible use guidelines can be disseminated to minimize potential risks associated with psychedelics.

De-Stigmatizing Mental Health
& Drug Use

By openly discussing psychedelics and their potential benefits, decriminalization helps reduce the stigma surrounding mental health issues and plant medicines. This can foster more open conversations about mental well-being, facilitate access to treatment, and encourage compassion and understanding for those seeking help.

Scientific Understanding

Decriminalization allows scientists to study psychedelics more openly, facilitating rigorous research and expanding our understanding of their mechanisms of action, effects on the brain, and healing applications. This increased knowledge can contribute to advancements in neuroscience, psychology, and pharmacology, benefiting our understanding of consciousness, perception, and human cognition.
