Every book Bob Parsons recommended on podcasts

Bob Parsons is a Vietnam War veteran, entrepreneur, and the founder of GoDaddy and PXG who has spoken about his life and experiences on programs such as On Purpose with Jay Shetty and The Shawn Ryan Show. During these podcast appearances, Parsons discussed his reading habits and the profound personal impact of Michael Pollan's book 'How to Change Your Mind.' Parsons recounted that he read Pollan's book in 2018, describing how he consumed the text rapidly and subsequently discussed it with his wife. He credited the book as his primary introduction and inspiration for exploring psychedelics as a therapeutic intervention for his post-traumatic stress disorder. Parsons emphasized that prior to reading Pollan's work, he had never used psychedelics in his life, but the book served as the catalyst for his research and subsequent personal experimentation with psychedelic treatments to address his wartime trauma and seek a more meaningful, reflective life.
