Depth In Motion48. What’s the Point?A meditation takes me into one of the darkest places I’ve ever gone, asking over and over: What’s the point? I confront my own insignificance, the absence of any clear purpose, and the unsettling thought that life carries on without me. But on the other side of that darkness, I discover an unexpected freedom—permission to stop striving, release judgment, and simply live. This episode is about letting go of the need for meaning and finding peace in being here, as I am.
2025-08-1309 minDepth In Motion47. The Cost of the MergeAfter two weeks of feeling disconnected, I committed to staying in bed until I reconnected with the merge between my body, mind, and soul. It took three hours of discomfort, distraction, and surrender—but I got there. And then… I lost it within minutes of re-entering the noise of family life. In this raw reflection, I explore the fragility of sacred presence, the grief that comes when it's shattered, and the anger of returning to a world that doesn’t seem to care.

What began as a search for cause and clarity evolved into a total dissolution of identity, structure, and perception.

2025-07-1424 minDepth In Motion45. Trust the Switches — Merging Mind, Body, and SourceIn this solo episode, I explore what it means to trust your internal process—when to lean into logic, when to surrender to breath, and how to allow your body and mind to merge into automatic flow. I reflect on recent insights about being critical without ego, processing decisions without burnout, and navigating the infinite internal “switchboard” of energy and thought. We talk about what happens when presence replaces pressure, when action flows without overthinking, and how even sexual energy can be alchemized into embodied euphoria. This one dives deep—into integration, inner knowing, and the sacred space where awarenes...
2025-07-1037 minDepth In Motion44. The Paradox of Preference and PresenceBack from Turkey, Tyler reflects on how shedding expectations—both subtle and loud—is transforming his relationship with discomfort, connection, and self-trust. From travel delays to trimming his back hair, every moment becomes a classroom for surrender. He explores how even pleasure can become more profound when it’s not chased, how preferences can be honored without being attached, and how the real teacher may not be a guru—but the energy itself. This episode is a grounded dive into what it means to live in the paradox of full sovereignty while releasing control.

Dissolving the Eager EgoIn this unfiltered entry, Tyler records from Turkey in the aftermath of a sleepless night marked by deep energetic movement, cramping, breathwork, and the possible dissolution of a longtime inner voice—the "eager ego" that always tried to help. He recounts a powerful Kundalini experience that challenged his trust, tested his discernment, and demanded he surrender control. Through all of it, he’s learning to distinguish what’s truly his voice versus what’s a borrowed download or pre-processed thought. This is a reflection on humility, identity, intuition, and the terrifying beauty of letting go.

This is an exploration of the layers we shed, the fear of being misunderstood, and th...
2025-07-0223 minDepth In Motion41. Plugged In – A Ceremony of Infinite EnergyIn this powerful integration episode, I recount a recent psychedelic ceremony where I felt myself plugged into an infinite source of energy. What began with resistance gave way to surrender, revealing deeply embedded energies within—archetypes like the lion, the monkey, the spider, and a young ancient bear. As these inner guardians softened, something opened. Energy surged through me, awakening my heart, third eye, and a mysterious conduit in my back. This episode captures the intimate unraveling of that experience, the beauty and confusion it brought, and the sense that something sacred is now alive within me—and perhaps with...

The Flame and the Squatter: A Peyote Ceremony of Reclaiming SelfIn this raw, unfiltered reflection after a peyote ceremony, I share the moment I realized that the restless energy I had accepted as “me” was never truly mine. What unfolded wasn’t a psychedelic trip—it was a deep soul-level excavation. Through guided intention, fire, stillness, and pain, I found the place in my body where something foreign had made itself at home. This is the story of how I asked it to leave. Of learning to protect my soul. Of understanding the ember within. If you’ve ever felt consumed by something you couldn’t explain, or wondered where your e...

The Ego and the EnergyThis episode is about learning to honor energy without hijacking it — not even for good.I talk about the difference between helping someone and trying to shape their process. I reflect on the subtle ways ego creeps in — not just through pride, but also through guilt, validation-seeking, and even in the desire to serve. And I share how I’m learning to strip ego away, layer by layer, by letting the energy guide me… only moving when it takes more force to stop than to act.There’s clarity here — in how I speak, how I move, and...

And when I don’t fight it, it moves me. Literally. My body begins to sway, to trace infinity symbols, to drum invisible rhythms. I’m not performing. I’m not in control. I’m listening.In this episode, I share what it's like to feel energy as movement — physical, emotional, spiritual. I talk about my past tendencies to force myself into productivity through caffeine, workouts, or willpower… and what happened when I stopped doing that and started flowing with the energy ins...

From Pain to PeaceThis is the first time I’ve truly completed a healing process without the aid of any medicine — no caffeine, no mushrooms, no ayahuasca — just me, my breath, my movement, and my willingness to keep going.After recording an emotional purge about feeling like a failure, I thought I was done. But my body had other plans. I sprinted up a mountain, danced barefoot in the forest, and laughed out loud in the trees. What followed was joy — real, earned joy. Not because I forced it, but because I allowed peace to enter where pain had lived.Thi...

2025-06-1441 minDepth In Motion32. The Process of ProcessingIn this raw journal entry, I unpack what it actually means to process something—emotionally, mentally, physically. We use that word so casually, but the truth is that “processing” isn’t one thing. Sometimes it’s crying. Sometimes it’s dancing. Sometimes it’s silence. And sometimes it’s just showing up, interrupted, uncentered, and still trying to connect with yourself.This episode weaves through nature, family dynamics, and self-reflection in real time. It's messy. It’s personal. And it’s exactly what processing often looks like. If you’ve ever felt like you’re not “doing it right,” this one’s for

If you're someone who's ever wrestled with launching something that feels personal, or struggled with whether you're ready enough, I think you'll relate to this one.

This was the beginning of what would eventually evolve into the Jumpstarter concept.
2025-06-0317 minDepth In Motion23. The Loop of Future ThinkingIn this episode, I share a recent experience with a mushroom-inspired drink that led me into a mental loop—trying to force answers about the future into the present. What started as an intention to connect and gain clarity turned into a lesson about control, surrender, and the anxiety that comes when we try to guide our soul instead of letting it guide us. This one’s messy, reflective, and honest.

This isn’t a pitch—it’s a release. A reflection. A curious thought made real.

But that bond can be toxic.This episode explores what it means to separate who you are from what you own or operate — not in apathy, but in peace. The business is its own entity.

Trust the Way You’re WiredAfter receiving a human design reading, I start to unpack what it means to live in alignment with how I’m naturally built — not how I’ve been told I should operate.
