Tracey Tee, 48, founder of Moms On Mushrooms, shares how her transformative psychedelic experience helped her confront deep-seated emotions during one of the toughest periods of her life. In 2020, as the pandemic canceled her comedy gigs and financial pressures mounted, Tee—who had been on antidepressants since undergoing early menopause following surgery—found herself at a breaking point. A camping trip with fellow moms in Colorado, where psychedelic mushrooms are decriminalized, proved to be a turning point. The experience allowed her to acknowledge her underlying fears and sadness, sparking a journey of self-discovery. Today, Tee microdoses psilocybin up to five times a week (with breaks when needed) and has discontinued her antidepressants. She emphasizes that these mushrooms are not a simple sedative for stress, but a catalyst for change. Through Moms On Mushrooms, an online community launched in 2022, she connects mothers and offers educational courses—from introductory microdosing lessons to comprehensive three-month programs—empowering them to explore alternative paths to mental wellness.
