Everyone has a dream. But sometimes there’s a gap between where we are and where we want to be. True, there are some people who can bridge that gap easily, on their own, but all of us need a little help at some point. A little boost. An accountability partner. A Snooze Squad. In each episode, the Snooze Squad will strategize an action plan for people to face their fears. Guests will transform their own perception of their potential and walk away a few inches closer to who they want to become ...

What if the very memories you've been running from could become the doorway to your healing?
In this powerful conversation with world-renowned trauma researcher Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, we explore how MDMA-assisted psychotherapy is transforming lives and unlocking access to healing that, for many, has felt unreachable for decades. I had the honor of speaking with Dr. Bessel van der Kolk about the science, spirit, and soulful possibility of reprocessing trauma, especially developmental trauma, through this promising modality.
Dr. van der Kolk takes us deep into what trauma really does to the brain, how we get stuck in cycles of re-experiencing rather than remembering, and how MDMA helps break that loop by fostering both safety and self-compassion. We talk about what it means to reconnect with the part of yourself that got hurt the most, and how to begin building trust with that younger self, perhaps for the very first time.
This episode is for anyone seeking new hope in the treatment of trauma, anyone who's done "the work" but still feels frozen inside, and anyone curious about how the future of healing is already here.
We Also Discuss: ● How trauma is not remembered, it’s relived.
● MDMA therapy and how it creates a safe space for memory integration
● The way healing happens when safety meets vulnerability
● Psychedelics and its ability to re-open neural pathways to trust and connection
● How integration is the bridge between insight and transformation
