In our first episode of Shared Vision, we talk about transformation, addiction, spiritual awakening, and what happens when the shortcuts stop working.

From our painted Chrysalis trailer in Big Bear, we open up about our own experieces with cannabis, ketamine, cravings, spiritual bypassing, and the temptation to keep reaching for altered states instead of doing the slower work of integration.

We talk about the difference between insight and embodiment, why awakening does not mean the work is finished, how easy it is to lose yourself in cycles of escape, and what it looks like to start rebuilding a foundation through meditation, prayer, nature, discipline, service, and self-honesty.

We do not claim to have the answer for everyone. We are simply sharing our field notes as we learn how to become more grounded, more loving, more free, and more fully ourselves.

If you have ever felt caught between who you were, who you are, and who you are becoming, this is for you. 🦋
