I was drugged (and I don't regret any of it)

2:00 AM, in a dimly lit ceremonial space deep in the South American jungle.

I was there for healing.

After years of suffering from a neck injury from my rugby days, I'd tried everything… physical therapy, chiropractic adjustments, injections, you name it.

Nothing worked.

The pain had become my constant companion, and I was willing to try anything to break free from it.

That's when I found myself sitting cross-legged on a floor mat, surrounded by strangers, as a shaman handed me a cup of ayahuasca…

An ancient plant medicine used for thousands of years for physical and spiritual healing.

Little did I know this night would completely transform my understanding of who I am.

After several nights of ceremonies with no significant breakthroughs, I was feeling defeated.

By the fourth night, I was exhausted, hungry (from the restricted vegetarian diet), and the pain in my neck was throbbing worse than ever.

When the shaman announced another round of medicine, I quietly slipped away to the bathroom, planning to skip it entirely and retreat to my bed.

I lay down, unable to sleep, the pain radiating through my neck and shoulders.

In desperation, I remembered the meditation technique the shaman had taught us…

To scan slowly from head to toe, allowing yourself to feel everything fully without resistance.

As I practiced this, something extraordinary began to happen...

A vibration of light seemed to enter through the top of my head, slowly working its way down. When it reached my chin, I heard a clear voice say…

"It's not about you."

In that instant, I knew this journey wasn't just for my personal healing.

I pulled myself together, walked back into the ceremonial space, and asked for another cup of the medicine.

What followed was the most intense physical pain I've ever experienced.

It became so unbearable that I wanted to die just to escape it.

That's when I heard another message…

"This pain is from slavery."

Images flooded my consciousness… shackles, ships, suffering. Though my father is from the Caribbean, I'd never been deeply connected with my African ancestry.

But in that moment, I felt the collective trauma of generations.

My stomach tightened painfully, and I saw an African woman… I somehow knew she had been raped by a slave owner and couldn't cry out.

Suddenly, her wailing began coming through me.

I cried and moaned until it felt like I was experiencing her giving birth to her pain.

I ran outside and violently purged.

When I returned, something had fundamentally shifted.

I had an overwhelming realization…

Your true identity is often hidden beneath layers of disconnection from your roots and purpose.

At that moment, I understood I was descended from a line of African warriors.

My Nigerian father-in-law's words echoed in my mind…

"You are the finest warrior!"

Something he'd told me years before that I'd never fully embraced.

I found myself standing tall, feeling a power and clarity I'd never known before.

I realized I'd spent my entire life disconnected from half of my heritage.

Later, I did a DNA test that confirmed it: 48% English, 50% from various regions of West Africa.

I began learning about my ancestral customs and languages from my father-in-law, embracing a part of me that had always been there but never acknowledged.

This profound experience taught me that when we connect with our true identity…

Not the one given to us by society or circumstance, but our authentic self…

…We have access to a power that can transform everything.

And this isn't just true for personal transformation.

It's especially true in business.

Most entrepreneurs operate from an identity that was formed by chance, circumstance, or what they thought they "should" be…

Not who they truly are at their core.

When your business identity is misaligned with your authentic self, you experience…

• Constant resistance and uphill battles
  

• Exhausting energy drains that leave you burnt out
  

• Repeated patterns of self-sabotage
  

• Success that feels hollow and unfulfilling
  

• Revenue ceilings you can't seem to break through

But when you align your business with your true identity:

• Growth becomes nearly effortless
  

• Decisions become clear and confident
  

• Your unique gifts naturally create extraordinary value
  

• Money flows as a natural byproduct of alignment
  

• Your work becomes a vehicle for your deeper purpose

And this is exactly what we focus on in the NEW Self-Image Alchemy Workshop happening on March 27th.

So come join us.

Because since that night in the jungle, I've transformed not just my approach to healing, but how I help entrepreneurs break through their limitations.

And I’d like you to embody your true entrepreneurial identity.
