About Andrew Tansil
Andrew was running a successful roofing business, but success came at a devastating personal cost. The high-stress, physically demanding industry was wreaking havoc on his mental health. Day after day of managing crews, dealing with weather delays, insurance claims, and the constant pressure of a seasonal business left him burned out, anxious, and questioning everything.
Like many entrepreneurs, Andrew was trapped in the "success prison" - making good money but feeling completely unfulfilled and mentally exhausted. The roofing industry's culture of "toughing it out" meant there was little room for addressing mental health struggles.
When COVID hit and the world shut down, Andrew found himself at a crossroads.He flew to Mexico. This wasn't a vacation; it was a quest for healing and a new direction. In Mexico, Andrew discovered the transformative power of legal psychedelic therapy and experienced firsthand how ancient plant medicines could heal modern mental health challenges.
