Small Doses. Big Shifts. One Blog.
Exploring the edge where microdosing meets meaning, flow meets function, culture meets consciousness, purpose meets performance, and nuance meets nervous system intelligence. This is the terrain where altered states become embodied traits—and transformation becomes your baseline.
Re-imagining Leadership: The Psychedelic Edge of Human Potential
Reimagining Leadership: The Psychedelic Edge of Human Potential isn’t about taking trips in boardrooms, it’s about rewiring the nervous system of leadership itself. As the old models crack under the weight of complexity, a new playbook is emerging: one built on presence over posturing, purpose over performance. Psychedelics, micro and macro, aren’t magic bullets, but they are powerful mirrors. They strip the ego, sharpen emotional intelligence, and tune leaders into the signal beneath the static. In a world drowning in strategy, this is a call for soul. Because the leaders we need now aren’t just smart - they’re awake.
The $50 Million Signal: Why Texas Just Redrew the Psychedelic Map
Texas just committed $50 million to ibogaine research—the largest publicly funded psychedelic initiative in history. This isn’t just policy. It’s paradigm. In a world wired for burnout, trauma loops, and chronic inflammation, ibogaine offers a hard reset—and microdosing offers a daily compass. Together, they could map the next frontier of neural repair, flow state performance, and human potential. This article unpacks what this moment means for psychedelics, neurogenesis, and the future of healing.
Flow States and the Future of Leadership: Riding the Edge of Purpose, Performance and Psychedelics
“Flow states are the engine room of high-impact leadership and the sweet spot where purpose meets performance. When in flow, creativity ignites, and the mind enters a state of deep coherence. This article explores how clear goals, neurochemical alignment, and micro-habits create the conditions for peak states. For leaders navigating complexity, this is the inner technology that turns presence into power.” - Gareth Kaatze

Learning How to Become: Why Flow, Microdosing, and Neurobiology Are the Future of Personal Transformation
“Most people think learning is about willpower. But real transformation doesn’t come from grinding harder—it comes from syncing with your nervous system. Flow states and microdosing don’t just make you feel good—they biologically prime you to become someone new. Faster learning. Deeper insight. Sustainable change. Welcome to the future of becoming.”
Grief, God, & Golden Teachers. A Coach Mentioned by Forbes, 45 Participants, and One Hell of a Week
"I didn’t come for healing. But those mushrooms had other plans. One minute I was in noble silence on a sunlit beach in Costa Rica, connecting to my mother through the wind. The next, I was four grams deep into a heroic dose of Golden Teachers, weeping to medicine songs under the stars, cracked wide open by grief, joy, and some ancient unbroken song that has been singing through humanity long before we knew how to sing it." - Gareth Kaatze
The Iceberg, the Ship, and the Course Correction
"Flow is not some magical state for the chosen few. It requires work. And it isn’t going to come to those who aren’t willing to dive in and do the deep, transformative work that is required to truly unlock it. Flow follows structural dynamics. It’s not about waiting for some mystical experience to strike—it’s about creating the right conditions and consciously shaping the path that leads us there. We are the architects of our flow."
