Billionaireism, Trauma, and Psychedelic-Assisted Healing: A Hard Look at Power, Responsibility, and Recovery with Diana Colleen

Billionaireism, Trauma, and Psychedelic-Assisted Healing: A Hard Look at Power, Responsibility, and Recovery with Diana Colleen

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, Avik sits down with speculative fiction author and trained psychedelic facilitator Diana Colleen to unpack trauma recovery, the realities and limits of psychedelic-assisted therapy (without naming specific medicines), and her provocative debut novel They Could Be Saviors—which reframes “billionaireism” as a social sickness. This direct, no-fluff conversation explores set & setting, integration, consent, safety, wealth inequality, climate accountability, and the difference between recreational use and therapeutic containers. If you care about mental health, trauma healing, leadership ethics, wealth concentration, or climate responsibility, this episode gives you a grounded lens you can use—today.

About the Guest :

Diana Colleen is a speculative fiction author and trained psychedelic facilitator. Her debut novel, They Could Be Saviors, challenges cultural blind spots around extreme wealth and power while drawing from her personal healing journey with psychedelic-assisted therapy in professional, regulated settings.

Key Takeaways :

  • Psychedelic-assisted therapy is a container, not a shortcut: outcomes depend on set (mindset/intentions), setting (safety/support), and integration after sessions.

  • Not recreational: therapy work is distinct from concerts/party contexts; trained facilitators and screening reduce risk and support trauma processing.

  • Hope is a catalyst: one properly supported session can interrupt suicidal ideation; long-term change still requires consistent integration and support.

  • Ethics of wealth: framing billionaireism as hoarding surfaces social and environmental costs; calling it an “illness” invites accountability without dehumanization.

  • Climate and power: a small number of companies drive a disproportionate share of emissions; leadership choices have cascading public-health impacts.

  • Nuance over extremes: billionaires aren’t heroes or villains by default—human backstories and trauma shape choices; responsibility for impact remains.

  • Regulation vs. capture: therapeutic use should be regulated for safety without turning into extractive, monopolized pharma pipelines.

  • Culture change through story: fiction can challenge blind spots and make complex debates discussable without shutting people down.
