“It’s not that I’m so smart, it’s just that I stay with problems longer.” – Albert Einstein
…And we’re back.
I’m sitting down to write for the first time since last Thursday, when I took off to run a weekend plant medicine retreat.
My words feel a bit topsy-turvy today so I’m just gonna freestyle and hope something cool comes out.
Starting with the good news:
The weekend was a wild success.
Our participants went home sparkling…
Clean and happy and inspired and back in touch with the “oh-my-god-life-is-actually-amazing-why-on-earth-was-I-feeling-so-lousy-this-is-incredible” feeling.
And I’m feeling damn good, too — tired, but damn good.
Working one on one with 7-8 people per night, tackling complex healing problems…
Deep trauma release, soul retrieval, cleaning drugs and alcohol, untangling ancestral trauma and epigenetic dysfunction, resolving stuck karma, clearing the energy of angry ex-girlfriends (true story, this actually happened)…
…While sleeping 3 hours a night…
…It’s a lot.
But it’s also the coolest sh*t on earth, and I left the weekend wondering:
What could I spend my life doing that would be more interesting, more satisfying, more challenging, and more meaningful than this work?
It’s hard as hell, unreasonably demanding, and at times downright risky…
…But I can’t seem to not do it.
Which, I think, brings us to the point of this email.
(what, you thought I was just gonna talk about myself all morning?)
The point is to find the thing you can’t not do:
The craft so compelling, so satisfying, so meaningful that you can’t not commit your life to mastering it.
I don’t know what your “thing” is — but I do know how hard it was to find my own thing.
So I’ll just say this:
It may take longer than you think — perhaps a lot longer.
But even if it takes 10, 15, 20 years, it’s well worth it.
And your chances of finding it are directly correlated with:
1. Your commitment to finding it.
2. Your understanding of how to find it.
3. Your unwillingness to give up until you’ve found it.
If you’re ready:
We can help you accelerate the process, here.

P.S. Last week, one of our Path members, Victor, summed up the platform with a simple metaphor:
“The Path is self-improvement on steroids.”
Victor actually works as a studying scientist in a Testosterone lab — so he knows what he’s talking about…
…But I’d have to say it’s more like self-improvement on psychedelics.
And also steroids.
Anyway, whatever your metaphor, it’s powerful as sh*t.
