High Achievers Are Rethinking Innovation Through Guided Journeys

In this episode of The Venture Variety Show, I sit down with Jodi Lomask, founder of Creative Journey, to explore how psilocybin and guided nature-immersive retreats are helping high achievers unlock creativity, clarity and vision.

On the podcast, Lomask shares how she transitioned from decades as a professional choreographer to guiding startup founders, VCs and innovators through transformative psychedelic experiences. These journeys aren’t just about altered states. They’re about breaking mental patterns, embracing fresh perspectives and authoring the future.

In this podcast, we discuss:

* The growing interest in psychedelics among professionals like Sam Altman and others in leadership.

* How guided macrodose experiences differ from the microdosing trend.

* Why creativity and vision are critical for leaders shaping tomorrow’s world.

* The importance of post-journey integration for long-term growth.

I hope you find the conversation is more than just a talk about psychedelics. It’s about rethinking how we tap into our full creative potential.
