Psychedelics Expert Dustin Robinson to Present “Meet The CEOs” During Monthly Psychedelic Panel at Soho Beach House Miami on Aug. 10

By August 4, 2021March 7th, 2022No Comments

What/Who: 

On Tuesday, August 10 at 7 p.m., Dustin Robinson, Esq. CPA, will present “Meet The CEOs” featuring special guests Psilera Bioscience CEO Chris Witowski, PhD and Silo Wellness CEO Douglas K. Gordon, as the second installment of Robinson’s new monthly psychedelic panel at Soho Beach House Miami.

The private monthly panel takes place at Soho Beach House Miami on the second Tuesday of every month. Moderated by Robinson, each panel will feature experts in the psychedelics space from CEOs, doctors, lawyers and celebrities. Robinson kicked off the first event of the series in July with NBA Champion Lamar Odom and “psychedelic concierge to the stars” Michael ‘Zappy’ Zapolin.

Robinson is Founding Partner of Mr. Cannabis Law – a full service law firm focused on the cannabis and psychedelic industries; Co-Founder of Mr. Psychedelic Law – a non-profit focused on psychedelic legal reform; and Managing Principal of Iter Investments – a venture capital firm deploying capital across the psychedelic ecosystem.

Dr. Witowski co-founded Psilera Bioscience to use psychoactive natural products as building blocks to treat serious mental health afflictions. Psilera will accomplish this using innovative, patient-friendly delivery technologies with N,N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT) and a next-generation virtual screening platform to identify new compounds with modified psychedelic and therapeutic effects. Prior to Psilera, he was a co-inventor on numerous patents for the discovery of various anti-infective natural products and multiple drug delivery systems for increasing the bioavailability of cannabinoids and terpenes. He has helped design and build facilities and labs around the country and launched an international product line with annual revenues in excess of $100 million. Dr. Witowski is personally motivated to improve the lives of patients and has witnessed the devastation of Alzheimer’s disease, depression, and dispassionate end-of-life cancer treatments.

Gordon is the CEO of Silo Wellness, a multinational, publicly-held company with global HQ in Toronto, Canada and operations in both Jamaica and Oregon. Silo’s mission is to support in the reduction of trauma and increased performance through psychedelic, time tested natural medicines. From inception, Silo’s focus has been to serve clients searching for more mindful and expansive lives. Psychedelics offer a pathway to that sort of enriched experience, and the company is actively exploring remedies that can be widely, economically and safely distributed to patients. Silo Wellness has launched its first global functional and psychedelic mushroom brand, Marley One, through a multi-year licensing agreement with the family of global reggae icon Bob Marley.

Five Things That Need to be in Your Resume or Cover Letter

To paraphrase Jerry Maguire, help us help you. As we sift through the paperwork, here’s what we are looking for:

1. What you love to do and why.

In PR, you may love writing, editing, interviewing, pitching the media, researching, coordinating events, networking, posting to social media … whew! While we would love it if you had a passion for it all, we’d never believe you if you said as much.

What part of this zany, crazy, whirlwind, yet meticulous, tedious, detail-oriented, profession calls to you and why? Help us make the connection as to how PR is really for you, and call it your Professional Summary.

2. Something you did that changed something or someone else.

If you never showed up to your last job, what wouldn’t have happened? That’s right. Erase yourself. Now which clients disappeared with you? Which articles just fade away? What press releases cease to exist? How much social media did NOT get liked?

We are just meeting you. So take a moment to spell out your impact, and it will be easier for us to see what you can do for the clients of Durée & Company. Share this under your Job Responsibilities.

3. Anything you created.

Feeling humble? Well, stop it. This is the part where you brag. If you craft a delightful blog, master a mind-blowing website, shoot crazy video or direct wonderful events, show us.

Then tell us a bit of how you did it, so we trust that it was your brilliance and not the intern’s. Let’s dub this Your Portfolio.

4. An indication of why you belong here.

At PR firm Durée & Company, we have a culture. Really, all companies do. To learn about ours, do some legwork. At this point, if you’re on our blog, you are in the right spot to begin learning. Hate pink? Not good with women? Live in Kansas? Low energy? Then you might want to reconsider applying. However, if we resemble a group that you’d like to hang out with, share why. You can do that in the Cover Letter.

5. Correctly spelled words – all of them.

Do more than hit spell check. Know how to spell or ask someone to proofread. Correctly spelled words work everywhere, all the time. Consider them the Little Black Dresses of resumes.

So consider these five tips – we’ve just given you a “cheat sheet” about what we’re watching out for. Even if our position may not be for you, feel free to use our advice for another – it may just get you the job!
