He claimed that this event spurred his interest in consciousness as it changed his experience of the world and worsened his ADHD.[3][4]

He went on to work as a producer at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's (CBC Radio) current-affairs radio show, The Current,[5]

He wrote The Head Trip: Adventures on the Wheel of Consciousness[6] and co-authored Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics.[7]

He collaborated with Calm (company) to create a beginner-friendly meditation series (How to Meditate) and daily meditation sessions (The Daily Trip).[8]
