🎙️ True Life Podcast – Episode: Eric Osborne (Sanctuary Psilocybin Church) – The Deep Truth About 3,000+ Journeys, Ego Traps, Community Healing & the Future of the Psychedelic Renaissance
In this raw, powerful, and deeply honest conversation, George sits down with Eric Osborne — one of the most experienced psilocybin facilitators alive (3,000+ journeys guided, 500+ personal journeys over 25 years).
This is NOT another surface-level psychedelic chat. This is the real, unfiltered view from someone who has quietly walked the medicine longer and deeper than almost anyone on the planet.
Key Topics Covered:
• Why true “expertise” in psychedelics may not exist — even after 3,500 journeys
• The ego trap that hits almost every facilitator (and how Eric learned the hard way)
• Why the sudden rush of certifications and weekend trainings worries both of us
• The moment Eric was told in ceremony: “Jamaica will be the lighthouse — and you will light the torch” (and how he fought it for a year)
• Getting attacked, smeared, and erased by parts of the psychedelic community — and why he’s now grateful for it
• Why community is the real medicine (and how people heal profoundly before ever taking a mushroom)
• Eric’s personal journey with borderline personality traits, suicide attempts, and discovering he’s a massive empath
• The unseen danger: people triggered into psychotic breaks just by being around high-dose ceremony (without ingesting anything)
• Why Eric went to jail for mushrooms — and still believes they should never be illegal
• Energy transmission, co-processing trauma, Qigong secrets, and purging on behalf of others
• Will the psychedelic renaissance survive the hype cycle? (Eric’s bold prediction using the Qigong crackdown in China as a mirror)
• The real reason psychedelics are controlled: they awaken latent human abilities that dissolve social guardrails
• Why courageous, lifelong community is the only safe container for this work
