the*team
Asger Nakskov Laursen
Founder
For the past 23 years, plant-medicine has been part of my personal journey in life. After a long career in IT-consultancy with focus on creating intelligent software, I realised that my deeper passion was to work with the “software” running inside each of us: our consciousness. I started to shift my career towards leadership, coaching and later psychotherapy, while integrating my knowledge and calling for working with the healing properties of plant-medicine.
The calling
In 2021, I realised that the time had come for me to step into the calling of creating the*dose. The pandemic had triggered a call to action. I could see the impact of the lock-down and the common narrative manifesting in fear, depression, stress, social anxiety and more, all around us. I have been helped people getting started with microdosing and I have been coaching them along the way. I knew that the power of plant-medicine in combination with guidance, could change lives, alleviate ailments, help and motivate people.
So I quit my well established IT job, and decided to go all in on creating a place where people can reconnect with their higher selves, with the support of guidance and the power of medicinal mushrooms and microdosing.
The core belief behind the*dose is; that we humans have tremendous potential and resources inside of us. We also believe the journey to unlocking this potential and these resources, is a journey of reconnection to ourselves.
Plant-medicine promotes reconnection, and in combination with science-based cognitive coaching in the form of guidance, creates a new baseline of mental health.
Our growing team
Saszeline Emanuelle
Marketing Adviser
For more than 24 years, from when I was 14 years old, I have travelled the world as a singer, performer, model, TV-hostess, brand ambassador and marketing influencer. Having met so many different people and seen so many different cultures inspired me to start looking at what is the true meaning of life - and the core of our human existence. This call for a new adventure led me to psychotherapy, and to start looking at my own life and emotional baggage. My adventure had become a journey towards my own personal healing. I decided to travel to Costa Rica to work with the plant medicine Ayahuasca, and was given a clear sense of my new direction in life, and was sighted with a vision to work with plant medicine and therapy.
