My mother passed away in 2013 and I began a leg of my journey that led me to the depths of despair…. I went from a fun-loving party animal to an alcoholic, drug-addicted, manic depressive. This went on for about 5 years until I started to lose the will to live. Then things began to change…

My last year of drinking I experienced several uncanny callings to go sober. They were clear as day and each one gave me a little more courage to consider making a change in my life. On Christmas Day, 2017 I had my last drink. The change was instantaneous; however I wasn’t close to finished with my transformation. Early 2021, I turned 45 and found myself in a state of depression; I was 65lbs overweight; on the back nine; my best days were behind me, and I wasn’t going to get any better, faster, stronger…. I once again felt a calling. “F#@K that S#@t! I want to make each day better than the last.” I said that out loud to myself. …And I was off… I began a regimen of hiking and intermittent fasting. Subsequently, a dear friend of mine asked me to accompany him on a plant medicine retreat. I found finally found my authentic voice, my second skin; and now I want to help you do the same.

You see, we live in a society that is is designed to mold us into an ideal productive citizen. And while those ideals are well intentioned…. any system designed for everyone is really designed for no one person. Through this programming we suffer; inflict suffering on others; and lose sight of our true selves. It’s no one’s fault; it’s just the way it is…. But it doesn’t have to be… not for you. Come find your calling.
