Why are so many successful people still feeling stuck, empty, and spiritually unfulfilled? In this deep and cautionary conversation, Rabbi Baruch Gartner explores why psychedelics and plant medicine have become so popular today, and why they are often a symptom, not a solution. Drawing from personal experience, Torah wisdom, and real-life stories, the episode examines the risks of spiritual shortcuts, the longing for authenticity, and how Judaism offers a grounded, lasting path to meaning, healing, and inner freedom without escaping reality.
