The pilot explored what Gwyneth called 'psychedelics as a healing modality,' and involved a Goop staff trip to Jamaica to take magic mushrooms.

Brad, a TV writer famous for his work with Ryan Murphy, got married to Gwyneth in 2018 at an intimate ceremony in the Hamptons.
She shares her children Apple and Moses with her ex-husband Chris Martin and still has an amicable relationship with both him and his girlfriend Dakota Johnson.
