I am not a mycologist. I am not a doctor or historian. So I don't claim to be able to speak on the things that they are experts on and I rely on those experts for advice. My college is in the sciences with eight years in the Biological sciences with emphasis on chemistry, physics and education. When I started my channel in 2019 there was no accurate information on this mushroom. There were a few posts on entheogen forums with bad overdose information. There were a few facebook groups, again with misinformation. I started from the ground up and was the first to use the mushroom, experiment with it and make public content regarding use and what I was finding.

I was the first to discuss microdosing, how to make it, how to measure it, how to dose it, that you could smoke it and how, all the varied effects, that ibotenic acid was safe to consume and that it was important and built out the experimental and practical use of this mushroom and all the addictions I believe this mushroom could help with. I was the first to make and sell products with the mushroom in them, to discuss oils and use topically and accurate tincture making, temperatures for drying and accurate reporting of the data from old research.

I was the first to set up classes, do podcasts and write articles for publications speaking openly and publicly that this mushroom was not only safe but highly important medicinally and spiritually.

I have taken on so much hate, abuse and shame from the community for each one of these things until it caught on and the detractors went silent. So I have truly suffered for this work. But I knew it was important.

Many people copy my work, spread knowledge, and now that it has truly caught on, wind up on my page saying I am stealing information from the internet and posting it here as my own so it has come full circle. I coined terms, usage, protocols and experiences. Those are now found all over the internet instead of all the bad information. This is so good!

Because I taught high school science and I feel confident in my interpretation of data, I fell confident in educating about amanita muscaria, but always welcome and often ask for others' interpretation. I seek out lore and original culture's use of the mushroom and seek to learn from them. I experiment on myself.

I am in a unique position as a person with a public platform on this mushroom of having thousands of people give me input, feedback and share their personal experiences. I run my personal experiences through all of these filters.

I report on scientific findings, personal experience, anecdotal information. I leave links to what I find, on the research page, in the descriptions of videos and teach how and what I am doing so others can do it too.
