Disrupt Everything: Reinvéntate a ti Mismo - podcast by Isra García

"There was no specific place, or a safe space at these events for someone who was having a challenging experience and hold them as the experience unfolded" - Ben Halper.

Ben is the Event Service Manager at Zendo Project. This platform provides professional, comprehensive harm reduction education and support for communities to help inform and transform difficult psychedelic experiences into opportunities for learning and growth.
