Episode Description:
What do we do when the frameworks we’ve used to make sense of life… stop working? When the stories we’ve told ourselves about success, identity, and healing begin to crack? In this powerful and raw episode of Mission Driven You, Will sits down with Alex Myers for an unflinching exploration of consciousness, healing, and what it means to be truly awake.
Alex shares his journey navigating the intersections of psychedelic experiences, trauma integration, AI, culture, and spirituality—and how so many of us are actually responding to the same quiet ache: the longing to come home to ourselves.
