Despite chaotic outside circumstances, I have been blessed with bountiful gifts this year. I moved to the greener pastures of Austin, Texas, with my better half, Alyson Charles. We purchased a home, and I expanded my business. I’ve never felt healthier, happier, or lighter than I do right now. 

Of course, as many of you know, it wasn’t always like this. I spent the best part of 25 years obliterating my body with drugs and alcohol and the past 25 years putting myself back together again. I’ve tried just about every spiritual modality out there. 

Still, nothing comes close to the breakthroughs I made during intentional psychedelic experiences, which is why I chose to close out the year reflecting on my recent talk at the recent MeetDelic conference in November. This episode pieces together my journey to sobriety, how I reconciled with my “sober” identity to cross the portal of psychedelics, and why intentional plant ceremonies have proved to be great medicine for my growth.
