    May 20 2025

    Barrett is joined by Kyle Quincey, retired NHL player turned psychedelic advocate, who shares his path from a high-performance life to sacred healing. Kyle opens up about the shadow side of professional sports and the incredible role psilocybin, community, and intentional living played in restoring his health, purpose, and spirit.

    Key Moments:

    • The raw truth behind Kyle’s “retirement” from the NHL and the silent crisis of athlete identity loss
    • 20+ concussions and the terrifying trajectory toward CTE and dementia
    • The trauma of his infant son’s brain tumor and surviving the chaos of COVID isolation
    • Stepping into ceremony for the first time and finding clarity through high-dose mushrooms
    • Transitioning from professional athlete to sacred space-holder
    • The vision and impact of Do Good Ranch for those in deep need of healing



    Kyle Quincey is a former professional Hockey player having played for the likes the Kings, as well as the Detroit Red Wings where he won a Stanley cup. Kyle is currently the Vice President of the Colorado Avalanche Alumni Association helping NHL alumni transition to civilian life after hockey. As part of that mission, Kyle has founded the Do Good Ranch which is a retreat center in Colorado.
