What I’m doing on Substack

This substack began as an email newsletter I inherited from a friend and spiritual brother after his passing. He used the newsletter to share his spiritual journey and our work serving medicine with friends and family. After his passing I decided to continue as he did, sharing my journey, as I walk this path of service and allow it to shape me.

About Me

I am in a process of becoming like everyone else. I don’t like about sections because they presume we are a finished product, or try to capture some stagnant portrait of us removed from time. Nevertheless, I’ll try to give you some idea of who I’ve been, who I am, and who I am becoming.

I am a tantric yogi who practices Kriya Yoga and works with sacred Earth medicines, sometimes called entheogens. My spiritual journey began in 2011, when I had an unexpected kundalini awakening six months after passing the bar and beginning my legal career. Soon after I found Autobiography of a Yogi, by Parmahansa Yogananda, and was initiated into Kriya Yoga. At the time I wanted nothing more than to renounce the world and spend the rest of my life in a monastery or ashram, but life had other plans. So I spent the next 10 years after that initial awakening practicing law and living the life of a householder yogi.

My journey with sacred Earth medicines began in 2019, and since then medicines and those who serve them have become some of my most potent teachers. At the end of 2021 my friend and first teacher on the medicine path invited me to join him in Austin, Texas to start a medicine church. At the time I didn’t know where that path might lead, but I knew it was the next step. So at the end of 2021 I resigned as managing partner of my law firm and dedicated my life to spiritual service.

I am a student on the path and have been blessed with many incredible teachers. What I share is simply what I have learned. I am currently head minister of The Infinite Way, a non-dual tantric medicine church based in Austin, Texas, and facilitate group immersives, retreats, and pilgrimages, and offer one on one transformational guidance and healing.
