Aaron Arvidson – CEO & Licensed Facilitator
I am a dedicated bioengineer with a degree from Oregon State University, blending my scientific expertise with a passion for holistic wellness. As a legal licensed psilocybin facilitator, I am committed to supporting individuals on transformative journeys, integrating science backed techniques with compassionate care to foster healing and personal growth. My work bridges the gap between innovation and mindfulness, creating a safe and supportive environment for those seeking deeper connections and self-discovery.
I practice meditation, yoga, and breathwork. Breathwork and meditation are a passion of mine. I am a strong believer in continuing education and seek out new information on studies around psilocybin and other holistic practices that may benefit people. With over 10 years of trauma and peer support training, I look forward to getting to know you on this healing journey.
My goal of being a facilitator is to help bring joy into people’s lives and support them in feeling like their true selves again. We all have the right to joy. Some things in life, like trauma, cause us to lose faith in that, but we all deserve to feel joy in our lives.

Reed Moshofsky – Product Engineer & Media Expert
I am currently undergoing education to become a Naturopathic Doctor (ND). Prior to this education, I received my bachelor’s degree in computer science, but felt disheartened by the prospect of a desk job, and the potential challenges of artificial intelligence reducing career options in programming. I am very passionate about novel mental healthcare treatment modalities. High in this list of interests lies the utilization of psychedelic medicines for their transformative qualities on psychological well being.
I also very much believe in the value of exercise for mental and emotional resiliency. Personally, maintaining an exercise regimen helps me stay emotionally well. Of course, healthy nutrition, meditation, social and spiritual wellbeing are essential pillars as well. I am constantly researching the mechanism of action of various herbs, nutrients, amino acids, and other interventions. I believe in uncovering the modern science behind herbs that have been used for centuries, and in how we can utilize these interventions to boost health in all of the core pillars of our wellbeing.
The prospect of optimizing human health is very enticing, but also within our reach. We live in an era dominated by immediate gratification, and it is important now more than ever to reconnect with nature, with our own bodies, with our own minds, and with each other. My ultimate goal is to help others become more healthy, and to truly want that health for themselves. Health is not something that can be given to others, but something that each individual strives to achieve.
I have had the opportunity to take Pre-Trip on two separate occasions before mushroom journeys. The mushrooms used were quite potent, and the first time was with 1.5 grams, and the second session was with 2.2 grams. Both sessions were the most relaxed come-up phases I have experienced, and it was much easier to meditate through the beginning portion, and really sink into the music. Both times there was no nausea at all. It also felt that the experiences were still just as powerful as I would expect- no blunting.
I also had the chance to take Pre-Trip prior to a Hawaiian Baby Woodrose experience- which is a substance that is very known for nausea. There was no nausea, and the experience felt very relaxed, dreamy, and still very very strong, with lots of magic. I highly recommend this supplement- there was clearly a lot of scientific thought that went into the development of this formula, and I really appreciate that a product like this exists.
