Sobriety Driven by Purpose, Not Pain
Let’s defy our spiritually starved culture—freeing ourselves from self‑importance, self‑pity, and self‑sabotage—and revive the reverence for the Sacred.
Sacred Sobriety stands apart because we:
- Believe addiction is NOT a disease it’s a spiritual crisis.
- Invite plant medicine as a healing ally, blending ancient wisdom with modern safety.
- Explore recovery through the lens of consciousness studies, mapping mind, shadow, and spirit.
- Show how digital overload erodes our bond with nature—and guide the way back to living soil, sunlight, and starlight.
- Shift the journey from pain‑fixation to purpose‑driven living, turning every challenge into fuel for growth and service.
- Welcome the sober‑curious and seasoned sober friends alike, creating a sanctuary where exploration is encouraged and labels fall away.
Modern Society’s Cycle of Pain
- Superficial living and hedonistic overdrive isolate us from meaningful connection.
- Disconnection from higher purpose and from God deepens despair, fueling self-destruction.
- Soul sickness and unresolved trauma hijack hedonism, multiplying pain.
- In this toxic soil, addiction takes root, and self‑hate flourishes.
- Shame, guilt, and isolation deepen our soul sickness, intensifying addiction and self-destruction.
The Way Out: Awareness, Reconnection, & Purpose
Deep awareness, meaningful reconnection (to nature, our soul, and the Sacred), and an intense sense of purpose ignite and sustain lifelong sobriety.
The Breakdown
Spiritual Lens: Highlighting “God” and “soul sickness” resonates deeply with those who view modern struggles as rooted in spiritual disconnection or a loss of faith.
Psychological Lens: Aligns with psychological insights into trauma and addictive cycles, emphasizing how unresolved emotional wounds drive harmful behaviors, with healing stemming from self-awareness and meaning.
Social Critique: Depicts modern society as superficial and disconnected, steering individuals toward self-destruction unless they consciously reclaim their deeper sense of purpose and belonging.

Founder & Coach
Coaching & Consciousness Credentials
My professional journey—from mindfulness coaching to business coaching, and now recovery coaching—reflects a deep-seated belief in human resilience. In fact, my fascination with human potential began early; I was drawn to the work of Tony Robbins at age 12 and have been exploring the idea of human excellence ever since.
While my background in Consciousness Studies and Psychology from the University of Michigan gave me a strong base of knowledge, it’s the profound darkness I’ve faced in my own life that bears the most fruit as a fellow traveler.
North Star: Humility & Abundance
Philosophically, I’m drawn to the wisdom traditions and modern mysticism. In other words, if I had an advisory panel, it would include Marcus Aurelius, Carl Jung, Terence McKenna, Alan Watts, Alain De Botton, Eckhart Tolle, and Iain McGilchrist—and, in a sense, they are always guiding me.
For me, there’s a sweet spot between feeling thankful for what I have and being pulled toward abundance (in all areas). This balance—between gratitude and ambition—is what I call my spiritual sweet spot.
Flexible Recovery
I’ve been walking the path of recovery for 20 years. In my first long stretch of sobriety, I found strength and healing through Alcoholics Anonymous. It worked for me then—and I still carry that community in my heart, and their symbol inked on my arm.
This second stretch of sobriety has taken me down a different road that integrates plant medicine therapies. A new path where I’m no longer dependent on meetings to stay sober. And yet, the principles of recovery remain deeply rooted in me.
Over the years, I’ve come to believe that there’s no single way to get sober. There are many paths—and all that truly matters is finding the one that works for you.
The real measure of any path is this:
Does it bring you closer to wholeness? To God?
To whatever you call the Sacred—Source, Spirit, Higher Power.
