Brad had a transformative shift that occurred with plant medicine that has led him along an incredible, challenging, and yet rewarding path. He says he has learned to live more authentically, and that his experience with plant medicine provided the opportunity for him to also accept his identity as a gay man, something he says he knew for as long as he could remember but buried deeply. For him, to live more authentically, he decided to come out. His life has changed dramatically since.  He sold his company, together with my wife concluded his 25-year marriage, and he established Reunion as a not-for-profit plant medicine retreat center in Costa Rica.  East Forest and Brad chat about the recent East Forest Ceremony Retreat.LEARN MORE ABOUT REUNION:https://www.reunionexperience.org/ _______________________________________________________NEW ALBUM OUT NOW - "Music For The Deck of the Titanic - Deluxe Edition" - LISTEN / BUYhttps://eastforest.orgUPCOMING LIVE - http://eastforest.org/ticketsMarch 20-24 - Treefort
