The Gateway To Your Truest Self: Why I Created Soulscapes
TLDR: I’ve created Soulscapes, premium guided psilocybin journeys in Cabo San Lucas that help with depression, trauma, burnout, and finding purpose. Having overcome my own depression through psilocybin and spent two years as a personal growth coach, I combine both experiences to guide others. Despite never being religious, these journeys showed me something profound that required no faith—just direct experience. During trips, I’ve seen sound waves, connected to the “superconscious,” and even experienced death, which changed my priorities completely. Research proves psilocybin’s effectiveness where other approaches fail. The first step is just a conversation—visit exploresoulscapes.com.
Imagine being able to step beyond the constant noise of your thoughts, the weight of your past, and the anxiety about your future – to access a realm where you encounter your authentic self and the infinite possibilities of the universe. This isn’t fantasy. I’ve been there through what’s commonly known as a “deep trip” or “hero’s dose” journey. And through my new venture, Soulscapes, I’m creating the bridge to help you get there too.
What is a Soulscape?
A Soulscape is my term for a carefully guided, premium psilocybin journey. While these experiences are sometimes called “deep trips,” “hero’s doses,” or “expeditions” in general circles, I’ve created Soulscapes as a comprehensive approach that goes beyond just the psilocybin experience itself. It’s a complete process that includes preparation, expert guidance during the journey, and—critically—integration support afterward.
Each Soulscape is a personalized, guided experience with psilocybin mushrooms, designed to facilitate profound healing, self-discovery, and spiritual connection. As your experienced guide, with two years as a personal growth coach and extensive self-education in consciousness expansion and spirituality, I create a container of safety and support that allows you to journey deep within yourself while connecting to the universal consciousness.
Beyond Depression and Into Awakening: My Transformational Path
My relationship with psilocybin began in 2018 when I first discovered the benefits of microdosing for my longstanding battle with depression. But it wasn’t until 2020 that I truly dove deep into psilocybin with the help of my GP. These experiences fundamentally transformed me – helping me connect with universal energy, tap into something vastly greater than myself, and ultimately become a better person.
I’ve now completed five personal Soulscapes. Each journey peeled back another layer of societal conditioning and self-deception, revealing truths that had always existed beneath years of trauma and limiting beliefs. Where conventional approaches had failed, these sacred experiences succeeded – dissolving my depression, illuminating my purpose, and connecting me to the infinite consciousness that permeates everything.
I should mention that I’ve never been religious. Throughout my life, I’ve been deeply skeptical of spiritual claims and anything that couldn’t be logically proven or experienced directly. I’ve always needed evidence, not faith. What surprised me most about my psilocybin journeys was encountering something greater that didn’t require belief or dogma – just direct experience. For the first time in my life, I understood there was something more, something bigger, but it had nothing to do with organized religion or blind faith. It was tangible, experiential, and profoundly real. If you’re someone who’s allergic to “woo” or spiritual bypass language, know that I was too. This isn’t about faith – it’s about experiencing something that transcends our limited understanding through direct, personal engagement.
One of my most significant journeys involved more than 6 grams of psilocybin mushrooms. During this experience, I connected with what I call the “superconscious” – a network of everyone’s subconscious that knows everything about us. Not just our actions and words, but our thoughts and intentions. This experience showed me that I didn’t have enough positive, deep connections with other people and with the universal energy around me. It completely changed how I view the universe and my place in it.
Breakthrough, Not Just Breakdown: What Soulscapes Truly Offers
Soulscapes isn’t recreational – it’s a spiritual, therapeutic experience designed for:
- Healing trauma that has resisted conventional therapy
- Deep self-inquiry that dissolves the ego’s protective barriers
- Emotional breakthroughs that liberate you from past wounds
- Consciousness expansion that connects you to universal wisdom
Each Soulscape is meticulously crafted with:
- Expert dosage (ranging from 3-8 grams based on your experience level)
- Safe, serene environments (“Sanctuaries”) that promote deep inner work
- Intentional preparation to maximize your transformational potential
- Comprehensive integration support to anchor your insights into daily life
You can choose from 1-day, 3-day, or 5-day formats, allowing for the depth of exploration that aligns with your readiness. The longer journeys provide sacred space between sessions for integration, creating a more profound and lasting transformation.
Are You Ready For True Liberation?
Soulscapes calls to those who sense there’s something more than the limited existence they’ve been living. I’ve designed this experience specifically for high-functioning individuals who are:
- Trapped in patterns they’ve outgrown but can’t seem to break
- Battling depression or anxiety that hasn’t responded to conventional treatments
- Carrying the weight of trauma or PTSD that continues to dictate their lives
- Feeling a spiritual hunger that material success hasn’t satisfied
- Standing at a crossroads, seeking clarity about their true purpose
- Ready to meet their authentic self beneath layers of conditioning
You’ll know if you’re ready. There’s a feeling – a quiet knowing that the answers you seek can’t be found in the strategies you’ve tried before. Perhaps you’ve achieved external success but still feel empty inside. Maybe you’ve explored traditional therapy but hit a ceiling. Or possibly, you simply feel called to expand your consciousness beyond the ordinary limits of perception.
This journey isn’t for everyone. It requires courage to face what you’ve been avoiding, openness to receive what you couldn’t previously imagine, and commitment to integrate what you discover. But for those who hear the call and are willing to answer, Soulscapes offers nothing less than the possibility of complete rebirth.
My Mission: Creating Ripples of Transformation
I believe we’re here to help one another, to share our special gifts and talents, to love others, and to lift each other up. My experiences with psilocybin revealed this purpose with absolute clarity.
Modern society doesn’t teach us how to become better people; those who feel the calling are usually left to navigate this space on their own. That’s why it took me so long to start my journey to becoming my true self – but now that I’m on my way, I can’t imagine living any other way.
When you find meaning, anything else is meaningless.
This is why I’ve created Soulscapes as a service – a guided psilocybin experience available to those who are ready. Each transformed individual becomes a catalyst for positive change in their families, communities, and beyond. By facilitating these profound journeys, I’m not just helping individuals heal – I’m participating in the healing of our collective consciousness. With each person who breaks free from their limiting patterns and connects to their higher purpose, we move closer to the world we all wish to create.
Cabo San Lucas: Where Heaven Meets Earth
I’ve recently relocated to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico – a decision guided by more than just its breathtaking landscapes. Cabo is perfect because it’s a short flight from the US with an ideal climate for both Soulscapes and some rest and relaxation either before or after your journey.
It’s also outside the US, which is much more restrictive on these types of “services.” Mexico is more open-minded, and their leadership recognizes the benefits of this work. Similar to why people travel to Costa Rica for MDMA, LSD, or ayahuasca retreats, Cabo provides a legal, accessible sanctuary for transformation.
The natural beauty, tranquility, and healing energy of this region create the perfect backdrop for transformative journeys.
Our Sanctuaries include:
- Serene beach settings where the rhythm of the waves serves as nature’s heartbeat
- Tranquil forest environments where ancient wisdom speaks through every leaf
- Luxurious indoor spaces designed to support deep inner exploration
Each location is carefully selected to provide comfort, safety, and the optimal environment for your exploration. The natural beauty of Cabo enhances the experience, creating a powerful setting that allows for deeper connection with universal consciousness.
There’s something magical about journeying at the edge of the continent, where land surrenders to the vast ocean – it mirrors the surrender of ego to the greater consciousness that awaits us all.
The Journey Unveiled: Your Soulscape Experience
Your Soulscape begins long before you consume the psilocybin. The preparation phase is sacred – we’ll work together to craft powerful intentions that serve as compass points for your journey. These aren’t casual wishes but deeply considered questions or directions that will guide your exploration of consciousness.
I usually clear my own day before a journey, eat a good nourishing breakfast, and after ingesting the psilocybin, I lay down and meditate until the plant medicine kicks in. Once it does, I connect to a carefully curated playlist that launches me into the journey, as designed.
On the day of your journey, the psilocybin is prepared in a warm, nourishing broth – a method that honors traditional practices while providing gentle entry into the expanded state. As the medicine begins to take effect, you’ll use an eye mask to turn your attention inward and listen to a specially curated soundtrack through headphones. This combination creates the optimal conditions for profound inner exploration.
Throughout your 4-8 hour journey (typically from 11am-7pm), I remain present as your experienced guide – not to direct your experience, but to hold space for whatever emerges and provide support if challenging material arises. My role is to create a container of safety that allows you to surrender fully to the process.
It’s worth mentioning that during this experience, you really forget to eat or drink because you aren’t a human vessel anymore – you’re a soul, a spirit, and you don’t need anything. Afterward though? Fresh fruit tastes AMAZING! All your senses are amplified, and you can really taste everything. It’s like rediscovering food for the first time.
In my fourth journey, I actually wanted it to end. I tried to vomit to terminate the trip, but I couldn’t. I had to sit through it – like a penalty for doing the deep work. I now had to face the discomfort. This taught me something profound: sometimes the most growth happens when we stop trying to escape the difficult moments.
The integration phase that follows is where the real magic happens. We’ll work together to make meaning of your experience and translate your insights into concrete changes in your daily life. Many participants describe this as the most valuable part of the process – the bridge between mystical experience and lasting transformation.
How Soulscapes Can Help You
As a service I’m now offering to others, Soulscapes can be particularly transformative for those experiencing:
- Depression or anxiety that hasn’t responded to conventional treatments
- PTSD or trauma that continues to affect your daily life
- Existential questions about purpose and meaning
- Creative blocks or professional stagnation
- Spiritual seeking and desire for deeper connection
- Life transitions requiring clarity and new perspective
- Burnout and disconnection from your authentic self
- Patterns of achievement without fulfillment
One of the most important experiences I’ve had is being able to find the exact source and location in my brain of past trauma. During a journey, I could identify it and “forgive” it, so that it didn’t occupy space in my mind anymore. It felt like a big black cloud over that part of my brain until I was able to identify exactly what (or who) it was and work through it right there in that moment.
After completing my journeys, I realized something that’s tough to explain – that none of this is “real” in the way we think. I don’t have the vocabulary to fully articulate it, but it’s all a product of our minds and our beliefs – which can be fundamentally changed during these journeys. I felt like I could create any life or experience that I wanted. My focus shifted to health and peace, and I could live regret-free when those became my priorities.
The psilocybin experience can help bypass the analytical mind that often keeps us trapped in old patterns, allowing direct access to emotional processing and spiritual insights. Many participants report experiencing more healing in a single Soulscape journey than in years of conventional therapy.
These experiences have given me the ability to hold multiple perspectives about almost everything. I can step outside of myself so much easier now. I can remain unbiased, taking the emotion out of things when needed. In the past, I was so focused on my own perspective, but realizing there are many other ways to think about things has changed every aspect of my life.
Whether you’re a CEO facing burnout, an artist struggling with creative blocks, a person processing grief, someone questioning their life’s direction, or simply a curious explorer of consciousness – Soulscapes offers a path to deeper understanding. The experience is uniquely personal, revealing exactly what you need rather than fitting you into predetermined categories.
I’ve seen profound transformations across all walks of life: executives who rediscover meaning beyond achievement, creatives who reconnect with their authentic voice, trauma survivors who finally release the weight they’ve carried for decades, and spiritual seekers who find the direct experience they’ve been searching for. What unites these diverse journeys is the opportunity to meet yourself beyond the stories and limitations you’ve accepted as truth.
(As a lighter side note, I’ve found that even a moderate dose can produce meaningful insights. The heightened sensory awareness can transform everyday experiences into profound moments of connection – whether that’s with nature, art, music, or even just the simple enjoyment of fresh fruit after a journey. The taste explosion is something else!)
