I just launched a new newsletter with a post detailing my recent experience with Peyote in a leadership retreat in Mexico.
I open up about my journey through divorce, deep loss & separation from my children.
Plus: what I'm building next...

Six months ago I stepped down from leadership at @ReFiDAOist to focus on my own path of inner regeneration after the most challenging year of my life.
Along this path I felt called to explore psychedelic-assisted therapy as well as indigenous medicine ceremonies in nature.

I recently had a powerful peyote ceremony with a group of 12 leaders in the Yucatan Peninsula as apart of the OYASĪN Awakening Retreat with my good friend Moniek van Ervin.
We did an episode together in December: pod.fo/e/20a3c8
I highly recommend her work...

I believe that just like web3 and AI, psychedelics are powerful tools that we need to learn how use in order to navigate the complex, systemic challenges of our time.
The Bigger Picture by Alexander Beiner does a great job outlining this perspective:

Sacred ceremonies may be one of the most powerful technologies we have to enable a just transition towards a regenerative future—but the problem is most haven't learned how to use them.
I'm new to this path and feel called to share my learning as I explore this path...

In the newsletter I share some of the insights that emerged in my first experience sitting around the fire with Abuelo along with a teaser for the Keystone Leadership Program I'm developing around transformative rites of passage in nature.

I believe that in order for humanity to realize our rightful place as a keystone species we need a small network of leaders to pave the way.
If you’re a founder or a guide committed to walk the path of regeneration inside and out—I'd love to connect!
