Chapter 1: What is the journey of Drew Bankey with Ayahuasca?

31.176 - 45.929 Host

Of whatever that passed away, a pet, family, friend, whatever, or a parent, that energy is still there. And you can talk to it with a faith that it's really there. And I think people really need to take faith and it's there.

0

46.269 - 49.432 Host

Wow, that's deep. So even pets, you think? Dogs, cats?

0

49.992 - 50.633 Host

I think anything.

0

56.499 - 60.881 Host

All right, guys, we got Drew in today. We are in Vegas. First time here in a while for you, right?

0

61.401 - 79.07 Host

Yeah, it's been a while. You know, I used to do trade shows in a prior life. I was a sales rep for a distribution company for head shops and stuff. So I used to come here for trade shows a lot. But yeah, this is my first time coming here for podcast. So thanks for having me, brother.

79.09 - 82.352 Host

Absolutely. It's cool to see you get acquainted with your former veteran of 17 years.

83.16 - 109.042 Host

Yeah. You know, seeing him, it's been literally since we were in Iraq, since the last time I saw him. Wow. You know, the unit that I started off my second deployment in 2007 in Ramadi, Anbar province. I was a Colt team leader. He was my supervisor. So he was above me. And our unit kind of started breaking up after a while and going to do different missions.

109.142 - 116.85 Host

And they were taking people from our unit and filling different spots. So yeah, last time I saw him was in Iraq until last night. So it was pretty cool. Crazy. Yeah.

116.91 - 118.912 Host

Did you have a spiritual side to you back then when you were serving?

Chapter 2: What are the insights from Drew's near-death experience?

135.111 - 140.436 Host

We'll dive into that. Cause you had all this trauma from serving and your childhood trauma. And then in 2016, you take ayahuasca.

0

141.016 - 167.62 Host

Yeah, so I was adopted at birth. So literally, from birth, I've been through a constant transformation that's been happening ever since day one. So I was Joshua Brandon Robinson for the first five days of my life. And then I was Andrew Roy Bankey after that. So from day one, it's always been a transformation into something like evolution.

0

168.12 - 174.228 Host

And that's been the path, especially over the past couple of years has been acceleration of all that.

0

174.468 - 177.052 Host

Absolutely. So did you have a lot of identity issues growing up?

0

178.566 - 183.549 Host

I wouldn't say that because I didn't know about me being adopted until I almost turned 18.

Chapter 3: How does Drew interpret past lives?

183.629 - 185.05 Host

Whoa, that's late.

0

185.37 - 202.44 Host

Yeah, and that was a big shocker, and that was my first big trauma. It made me distrust a lot of people. I had abandonment issues, and those were my first traumas that started to form my identity and my process here.

0

Chapter 4: What is the significance of synchronicities in Drew's life?

202.58 - 207.043 Host

Yeah. What do you think the right approach to adoption is? Do you think you should let the kids know at an early age?

0

209.4 - 232.369 Host

I think it's, there's no template, you know, it's case by case. I think, you know, looking back, definitely at the time when I found out it was very hurtful, everybody, I was hurtful on all sides, you know, my adopted side, my biological side, everybody. But now, you know, getting older and going through the process, you see, especially being a parent now, you know, I have my oldest child.

0

Chapter 5: How does Drew describe his healing experience?

232.529 - 250.962 Host

child's 21 and I have an 18 month old. So I have four children all together and having children is starting to make sense of why things happen. You know, they, they were doing, they made the best decisions at the time, what they thought were the best. And I think that's always true generally for most parents.

256.567 - 260.069 Host

You said we were talking out there. You said the first night was really rough, right?

0

260.449 - 284.425 Host

Yeah. So rewind a little bit to 2014. I had a suicide attempt and I was in the process of starting a company, Glass God Distribution. I had a 12,000 square foot warehouse in Fort Wayne, Indiana that my investors had already owned. We were remodeling it, putting in new offices and everything for a company that they were backing for me.

0

284.485 - 301.47 Host

So I had investors that were really starting to go all in for Glasgow Distribution, which was a company that I was starting, and a distribution company for head shops, bongs, just everything that you could think of in a head shop at the time.

302.63 - 314.934 Host

And, yeah, I just had, like, a break one moment and had a suicide attempt, wound up in the ER after being pretty much unconscious for almost, you know, around 24 hours.

Chapter 6: What are Drew's thoughts on extraterrestrial encounters?

315.955 - 330.18 Host

And that was the beginning of my mental health treatment. I didn't have any mental health treatment really before that. And that was the beginning of the VA starting to treat me in for –

330.609 - 346.363 Host

Hey, I'm Ryan Reynolds. Recently, I asked Mint Mobile's legal team if big wireless companies are allowed to raise prices due to inflation. They said yes. And then when I asked if raising prices technically violates those onerous two-year contracts, they said, what the are you talking about, you insane Hollywood ?

347.063 - 355.012 Host

So to recap, we're cutting the price of Mint Unlimited from $30 a month to just $15 a month. Give it a try at mintmobile.com slash switch.

depression, anxiety, and PTSD, ultimately, you know, to make a long story short for PTSD. And I didn't know I had PTSD before that, got diagnosed and everything. So 2014 and 16 was in the healthcare system. I was on around five different medications I had to get off of to clean, to detox before I did my ayahuasca ceremonies. Right.

462.276 - 482.393 Host

But a lot of talk therapy, even had a service dog, and none of it was really helping. And there was a conversation with another veteran close to 2016 timeframe that had went down to Peru. And I saw just there was something different in the way of who I was talking to. And I was recognizing there was something different.

0

483.277 - 506.883 Host

So ayahuasca become my passion and I started researching it for next two months or so. And all I found was places in South America and it was outside of my budget at the time to go down and do anything like that. So my girlfriend, wife, my wife, now girlfriend at the time started researching ayahuasca

508.604 - 536.492 Host

ayahuasca places in the states and soul quest uh church in orlando come up they just closed um just recently on actually just a few months ago they closed after 10 being open 10 years but they had just started they were like a year into it so there was like 20 people in the ceremony she booked a ceremony and she's like hey we need to start clearing out for this we need to stop drinking we need to stop having stop having sex uh eating spicy foods all these things gotta go vegan right

537.332 - 557.586 Host

Pretty much, you know, you can eat a typical, like a traditional meal down in Amazon would be fish, but no seasoning. So basically boiled fish and rice with no seasoning. So a little seasoning as possible. So we stuck to the diet as much as possible. You know, I didn't realize that time, but I was alcoholic.

0

557.646 - 564.831 Host

I was drinking two or three Crown and Coke mixed drinks, like tumblers of like Yeti tumblers a night.

567.112 - 589.808 Host

I mean, three, four, sometimes seven nights a week, I would do that. So just getting, going through that process, I realized I was an alcoholic even before like the ceremony, you know, because I kind of went through not like vicious alcoholic withdrawals, but there was definitely... you know, physical signs that I didn't even realize. So just getting it cleaned out to go to ayahuasca ceremony.

589.828 - 596.973 Host

And they say, once you set the ceremony, the ceremony starts anyways, just drinking it is just a small part of the actual ayahuasca ceremony.

597.233 - 599.074 Host

So it's like a full cycle.

599.634 - 624.587 Host

Yeah, well, understanding it now that, like I do, it's the spirit and everything, it's much stronger. It's not contained just in the liquid. It's in the ether. It's around us right now, you know, as we're having this conversation just because we're mentioning it. Anyways, back up. We did the first ceremony on Friday night, drank two or three cups, and it was just hell. I didn't see anything.

624.607 - 626.008 Host

I was in the bathroom a lot.
