Founders & Executive Team

Heather Jackson

Co-Founder & Board President

Heather Jackson is the Co-Founder and President of Unlimited Sciences and Realm of Caring Foundation, an internationally acclaimed nonprofit primarily serving families who are dealing with life-limiting and chronic health conditions. Her mission, after helping her son transition from hospice to health, is to reimagine the way we think, talk, and respond to plant medicine and the people who use it. To that end, she is committed to innovative scientific research, building global communities and advancing demanded conversations about these life-changing approaches to health. She is an international speaker, published researcher and author, and her work has been featured on Dateline, 60 Minutes Australia and CNN with Dr. Sanjay Gupta as well as in the New York Times, National Geographic, TIME and Good Housekeeping.

Del Jolly

Co-Founder

Del Jolly’s plant medicine journey began after visiting The Realm of Caring in early 2016. After understanding the vast potential to help children and adults alike, Del dedicated his time to advocating for natural medicine. While working for Charlotte’s Web Hemp oil, Del became the outreach director for Decriminalize Denver, the first of its kind legislation to pass the decriminalization of psilocybin. Since then, Del has worked tirelessly to recruit for the Unlimited Sciences/JHU study, was part of the Decriminalize Nature Boulder County steering committee, and has advocated for the decriminalization of all entheogens.
