Little did I know that my first task as Associate Director of The New Seminary for Interfaith Studies would be the catalyst for a profound voyage of self-discovery and a deep understanding of my soul’s purpose. Amidst the pandemic’s uncertainty, I had the privilege of meeting Hehakapa “Delwin Fiddler” Mahto, a remarkable Lakota Ceremonialist and Performer. My initial approach was to invite him to teach our seminary’s class on Native American Spirituality, but little did I anticipate that our encounter would lead to a profound soul connection and a much greater purpose.

Powerful Encounters with Psychedelic Mushrooms: Shaping My Path
Let’s rewind to 2004, a fresh chapter after high school, college’s first year. In a web development class, I met a fellow student who was a musician. And at the time I got my guitar and worked on it for about a year and tried to learn because I’ve always loved music. Then came an unexpected suggestion: try psychedelic mushrooms. Back then, I was into some drinking and smoking, but this was a new realm. A bit of research later, I decided to give it a shot.

The universe always always always has my back. Did I mention, ALWAYS? Now, I didn’t know that when I was growing up, nor was I taught that in school or at home. It took me ONLY a little over 30 years to come to that conclusion! Of course that only happened if I was willing to let go of control and allow the universe to co-create with me! But would I let it? Uh-uh!

My early years were infused with the expected challenges that accompany being a reserved, introverted, and red-haired individual filled with freckles. I grew up in the comfortable embrace of Greenfield, a charming town tucked away in the heart of Northern England. My small size and physical traits became a reason for harsh jokes, and self-awareness and self-consciousness were constant companions. However, weaved within this tapestry of life was a critical incident that changed the trajectory of my existence, and brought with it both agony and resilience.
