Filmmaker Statement

This is about my experience with psychedelics, but I also hope it can resonate with anyone navigating changes in themselves and in their lives, those who struggle with self-doubt, those who are self-inquirers, and more. As a passion project without any budget, this has taken about 3.5 years and to be honest I feel like old me and new me have integrated. And then recently not psychedelics, but a Big Love sparked created a new death and rebirth again. This piece speaks to a conflict between intuition and intellectualism that still resonates with me, but most of all I see it as a documenting my fear of letting go and trusting myself. 

 I’m SO grateful that “old me” doesn’t have the control he used to have. I hope people see this video and also see that I (he) fought so HARD to not relinquish the driver’s seat, and it was his time. maps.org/ has lots of helpful information for approaching responsibly, which is important as there are risks.
