Summary

In this powerful and inspiring conversation, I sit down with Dr. Mai Shimada to explore her remarkable path from growing up in Japan—where mental health stigma is deeply rooted—to working on the front lines of emergency medicine, and ultimately stepping into the world of psychedelic‑assisted mental health care . We dive into: -Her firsthand experience witnessing cultural stigma around mental health-What led her to transition from emergency medicine to psychedelic therapy-The science‑backed benefits of ketamine and other psychedelic‑assisted treatments-Our shared “why” behind the work we do-The creation of Mozu Health and our mission to bridge gaps in mental health care And so much more This episode is filled with honesty, purpose, and hope for the future of mental wellness. Tune in and let this conversation expand your perspective. You can find and contact Mai at: https://mozuhealth.com/ https://isha.health/ IG @ throtheeyesofmai
