In this episode of Slay the Gatekeeper, host Courtney Johnson sits down with Austin West, a certified psychedelic medicine practitioner and founder of Entheos Holistics, to explore how intentional psychedelic use can help transcend personal limitations. Austin shares his journey from high-stress burnout to embodied purpose, revealing how microdosing and deep self-inquiry helped him overcome panic attacks and reclaim his life.

Together, they discuss psychedelics as powerful, often gatekept tools for enhancing creativity, improving relationships, and managing anxiety and depression. The conversation also delves into the historical and cultural significance of plant medicine, the need to confront fear, and how self-narratives shape our reality.

Austin’s work—through one-on-one guidance, retreats, and his nutraceutical company—focuses on helping men break free from conditioned patterns and realign with their truth. His unique approach blends ancient wisdom with modern science to support radical responsibility, emotional presence, and genuine transformation.

A special emphasis on male embodiment rounds out the episode, offering listeners a powerful invitation to live with more freedom, purpose, and self-awareness.
