Ep# 19 Joe Smith – Retired Healthcare Executive, Consciousness Explorer, Endurance Athlete, Brother, Husband, Father, and Grandfather.
/Our highly engaging conversation with Joe was over 4 hours long, and we were just getting started. What we are sharing with you today is only a small part of the full-life wisdom that Joe shared with us. But you can be assured, this is not the last time you will hear from Joe, the story is to be continued.
What he shares with us in this conversation is his extensive deep-dive research and experimentation over four decades with psychedelics. Principally plant-based entheogens like psilocybin, and LSD and their consciousness-expanding affects. He also shares his extensive relationship with the breath, including hundreds of free diving experiences in oceans all over the world, extreme immersion in Rebirthing, Holotropic and Transcendental breathwork. All his experiments and experiential research has been with the intention of opening wide the doors of perception and non-dual unitive awareness.
Joe is retired now and enjoying his time with the children and grandchildren while keeping his daily exercise routines outdoors where he communes with nature for hours each day usually on his bicycle, but when snow is on the ground he breaks out the snowshoes or skis rarely missing an opportunity.
Prior to his retirement, he had an illustrious career in the healthcare sector starting as a cardiopulmonary technologist and then came into his own as a founder/director of a long string of healthcare facilities most often around a comprehensive set of exercise modalities, in both freestanding and hospital-based facilities.
As a President or senior executive of multiple healthcare organizations, he managed personnel in the thousands and budgets in the $100 millions. His track record and accomplishments are frankly remarkable.
Needless to say, he has accumulated a lifetime of wisdom; as a businessman, father and husband, and a serious consciousness explorer. I hope you enjoy our conversation.
