🧠 Inside the Future of Psychedelic Biotech
One of the most exciting parts of our conversation was hearing about Inner State’s innovative research. Ashley and her team are diving deep into the mycology of psychedelic-producing fungi, studying how different strains affect women's health—from hormone regulation to mental well-being.
They’re also focused on addressing issues like menopause and mental health, which have long been underserved in traditional medical research. The ultimate goal? To make these therapies accessible to women everywhere, not just those who can access gray market solutions.
Key Takeaway: The future of biotech could be growing in the soil right now. Whole mushrooms, with all their molecular diversity, are the key to unlocking better health solutions.

Like any groundbreaking work, Inner State faces significant challenges. One of the biggest hurdles is navigating the bureaucracy around Schedule I drugs like psilocybin. Despite these challenges, Ashley and her team are making headway with federal approvals, DEA partnerships, and collaborations with institutions like Ohio State University.
Key Takeaway: The journey may be long and full of red tape, but the potential rewards for women's health are enormous.

🗣️ Top 3 Tips for Aspiring Biotech Entrepreneurs
Are you thinking about entering the world of biotech or psychedelics? Here’s Ashley’s advice for anyone looking to break into this exciting field:
1. Hold Onto Your Vision
Vision is everything. You need to be able to see the future of your work and stay committed to it, especially when times get tough.

Biotech is not a fast-moving field. Scientific research takes time, and so does navigating regulatory hurdles. Be prepared to play the long game.
