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.

Why We Need Myth, Ritual, and Story in the Psychedelic Age
Why We Need Myth, Ritual, and Story in the Psychedelic Age
Across history, the most transformative psychedelic experiences have never been just about the substance. From Soma in ancient Vedic hymns to ayahuasca in the Amazon and psilocybin in the mountains of Lesotho, every culture wove together three essential elements: molecule, myth, and a guiding steward. Remove one, and the sacrament unravels.
In today’s psychedelic renaissance, we risk losing this soul-scaffolding—turning powerful plant medicines into consumer products without the mythic frameworks, sacred rituals, and community containers that once made them transformative. Without story, we chase novelty. Without ritual, we’re just getting high. Without stewardship, we wander the underworld without a map home.
To create a lasting, ethical, and healing psychedelic culture, we must learn from ancient traditions without appropriating them—building our own rites of passage rooted in lineage, ethics, and integration. In the end, it’s not the psychedelic itself that makes the moment sacred—it’s the story we choose to tell about it.
Meet Gareth
Founder of Dose Coach | Flow Facilitator | Psychedelic Integration Guide
I’m Gareth Kaatze, a former commercial director turned transformational coach. I spent years crafting stories for brands and pay-per-view channels- until I realized the story I hadn’t written was my own.
Dose Coach was born at the intersection of burnout, breakthrough, and the sacred unknown.
Today, I guide leaders, creatives, and seekers through the science and soul of transformation, my coaching approach blends cutting-edge neuroscience, somatic wisdom, and mythic frameworks with real-world performance tools. Whether you’re seeking clarity in your leadership, energy in your body, or meaning in your life, I offer a map—and a mirror.
This blog is a field manual for the modern seeker, where science meets spirit, and peak states meet purpose. Here, we explore microdosing, flow, altered states, nervous system healing, masculine archetypes, leadership, and all things that wake us the f*ck up to who we’re meant to be.
Expect stories from the edge. Research from the frontier. Tools to help you unlock creativity, resilience, and the life that’s calling you underneath the noise.
You won’t find dogma here. Just practices, perspectives, and provocations that invite you to become more fully you.
