#12 Gina Vensel – Psychedelic Entrepreneurship & Community

In this episode, my guest is ⁠Gina Vensel, co-founder of Plant Media Project, a women-owned boutique agency specialising in plant medicine education and advocacy and owner of the events company Easy Street Promotions. Most recently co-founded the Three Rivers Psychedelic Society (TRiPS). She is on the national board of directors for the Students for Sensible Drug Policy and serves on the Global Psychedelic Society team. And above all that she magically found time to bring the Earthstar festival into life, a mix of music festivals with workshops and talks, coming to Joshua Tree, California this October! Dedicated to maintaining lasting relationships with a focus on building community, Gina is a hard-working entrepreneur and we talked about community building, innovation, building a successful company, cultural awareness, and how to keep sane as an entrepreneur in the psychedelic space. Tune in for a conversation filled with thought-provoking perspectives and inspiring stories. _ For more information and additional resources, please visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.psychedelics.design⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Contribute and fill out the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠research survey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ aimed at investigating how psychedelic substances affect the design process in context with psychedelic-induced nature-relatedness.
