Music intro/outro: "In the Forest" by Lesfm

Silence can speak volumes, and I am living proof of that. My latest podcast episode is an intimate account of the profound stillness and self-discovery I experienced during a three-day silent meditation retreat within the familiar walls of my home. With every intention set to embrace the present and shed the weight of the past, I navigated through an ocean of internal dialogue to unearth insights that are both personal and universally resonant. The vulnerability shared in this narrative promises to both challenge and comfort you, as I recount the lessons learned in the quiet.

As the retreat unfolded, the serenity of the first day gave way to a storm of emotions. Bound by silence, I grappled with the echoes of a busy beach and the whispers of a past ayahuasca ceremony. It's in these moments of struggle that I uncovered a transformative self-compassion, drawing parallels between the weathering of internal tempests and the peace that follows. This episode peels back the layers of my own heartache and the cathartic release that comes from staring down the shadows we all carry. My hope is that through sharing these moments, you too will find a sense of release and the courage to rewrite your inner stories.

The journey does not end with the closing of a silent retreat; it's merely a beginning. The clarity and self-belief that emerged from those three days led to the birth of not just this podcast, but the vision of a vibrant online community. In this episode, I reflect on the delicate dance between treasuring personal growth and the pull to share it with the world. I extend an invitation to you, my listeners, to join in this unfolding conversation, to discover the solace in solitude, and to cherish the joy of finding one's voice. Together, let's explore the balance of private revelation and collective inspiration, as we continue this journey of self-discovery.

Music intro/outro: "In the Forest" by Lesfm

Growing up, joy was elusive to me. It was a misunderstood feeling, one I unconsciously mistook as a reward from external sources rather than a state of being. My strained relationship with joy saw me board a plane to Mexico with a one-way ticket, uncertain but hopeful. I was guided towards an ayahuasca ceremony, an event that reshaped my perception and gave me an opportunity to unlearn my conditioning and reclaim my joy.

My journey didn't stop in Mexico. Back home in the US, I embarked on a self-reflective odyssey, confronting my own shadows and traumas. It was through this process of self-discovery that I mastered the art of re-parenting myself, realizing the power of compassion and understanding. I learned how to tap into a core wound in my Human Design and Gene Keys, and unlocked an energetic passion that I now use to serve others.

Trust me, the journey to joy is challenging yet fulfilling. Through my story, I hope to inspire you to embark on your own journey of self-discovery, to recognize your potential, and to become a source of joyous light for others.
