Why this startup is encouraging employees to microdose psychedelics at work
Shane Health, CEO of the functional mushroom company MUD\WTR, made an open statement allowing employees to microdose at work.
He estimates that about 20% of employees microdose on the job, including himself and senior designer Ryan Rosenthal.
“It’s really good as a designer because we’re really trying to think about the psychology of who’s visiting our platform, and so you can really tap into that and become more empathetic,” Rosenthal explains.
Pro tip: if you accidentally take a bit too much, “it’s nothing that a quick walk and a coconut water can’t fix.”
MUD\WTR had no current job openings in case you were about to check 😉
