What happens when you stop postponing your healing?

In this powerful conversation, past Awakening to Life guest Jen shares the deeply personal journey that brought her to Enfold — and the life-altering transformation that followed. As a mother, business owner, and caregiver to loved ones in decline, Jen had every reason to wait. But a simple piece of advice changed everything: “You might not want to wait.”

Jen opens up about the grief she was carrying, the fear of wanting more, and the internal voice that kept whispering “I don’t have time.” What she discovered through the Enfold process wasn’t just safety — but a reconnection to her feminine essence, a radical softening, and a knowing that everything she was seeking was already within her.

This episode is for anyone who feels like they’re holding it all together on the outside… but secretly wondering, “What about me?”

🪞 In This Episode, We Explore:

1. What held Jen back from saying yes to her healing

2. Navigating anticipatory grief and the pressure to “hold it all”

3. The moment she realized she didn’t want to be afraid anymore

4. Letting go of masculine conditioning and stepping into the feminine

5. Integration insights: How the experience continues to ripple through her life

6. Why the time is never going to feel perfect — and why now is enough

In this episode, David shares his profound transformative journey with 5-MeO-DMT at Enfold. Initially unfamiliar with psychedelics and stemming from discovering his autism and deep personal grief around his mother, David recounts how an invitation by his sister led him to explore the Enfold experience.

Through immersive parts work (IFS) and the ceremonies at Enfold, David experienced significant personal breakthroughs, particularly in processing the loss of his mother and his newfound ability to connect and love others unreservedly. He discusses the importance of integration, the realization of love as an infinite resource, and how these revelations continue to manifest in his daily life.

For those inspired by David's journey, Enfold offers a supportive and intentional environment to explore transformational experiences.

Takeaways:

- David's first encounter with Enfold and 5-MeO-DMT stemmed from a deep interest in internal family systems (IFS).

- Diagnosed with autism, David felt disconnected and exhausted, seeking a new way to cope with his grief and life challenges.

- The 'Meet the Medicine' ceremony allowed David to reconnect with his late mother, altering his perceptions of grief and self-worth.

- The full release ceremony deepened David's understanding of universal love and energy, fundamentally shifting his approach to life and relationships.

- Post-experience, David feels more connected to his body, less fearful of social interactions, and more grounded in his daily activities.

- Integration was key to maintaining these insights, with Enfold providing ongoing support and resources.
