Made by people who needed it.

The Microdose Journal exists because the tool we were looking for did not. This is the story of how it came to be, and who made it.

It started with a practice.

I started microdosing in 2015, living in the Bay Area. The changes were real, but they kept slipping away between doses. Reflection turned out to be the difference: writing things down was what turned a passing insight into actual growth.

Years later, after losses and discoveries I could not have planned for, I spent three years building the tool I had needed at the start. The Microdose Journal was designed with seasoned microdosing coaches and psychedelic facilitators, structured around the Hero's Journey, with daily prompts that meet you wherever you are in yours.

Nobody should have to figure this out alone, and nobody should have to guess whether their practice is working. That is the whole reason this journal exists.

The spark

Why was there no journal built for someone new to microdosing, or for anyone trying to deepen a practice? The question would not let go.

Design and research

A year inside the science and the wisdom traditions: drafting prompts, testing layouts, and building prototypes that had to be practical and soulful at once.

The final piece

With the journal nearly complete, something was still missing. It took a hero's journey of our own to find it: the journal had to guide readers to their own inner wisdom, not ours.
