Congrats on your new role. I just loved the part where you mentioned that you put your ego aside and decided to support somebody else’s mission that you already feel like yours. I imagine having my sanctuary in the future. Not the same concept but still, a safe place for many overwhelmed souls :)

Thanks Diana. Yea that was such an interesting part of the decision process. At first I was very caught up in starting my own thing but realized, over time, that was just my ego. If I truly just wanted to serve my new mission in the best way possible, why not team up with people who were already doing so? There was lots of learnings and lessons in humility there.

This is so exciting! Creating experiences that help us look inward, connect with others, and feel more human in this unpredictable and lonely tech era is crucial and life-saving work. Congrats!

Thank you, Stacy! Yea through sharing my story I’ve learned how many folks are struggling out there and I fear it will only get worse as The Acceleration Decade continues. I believe that we will need a lot of different containers like Enfold in the future. Appreciate your support :)

Hi Scott! New reader and wow, you didn’t disappoint. I’m coming out of a very high-performance chapter as I recently broke two world records in Ironman triathlons. I'm now stepping into something that feels a lot more like what you described… slowing TF down!

I feel a strong pull toward building something in service of others through helping people take ownership of their health. A couple of years ago, I went through a period of being really sick with no clear answers, and ended up having to piece things together myself. It completely changed the direction of my life. But I’m trying not to sprint into creating just to feel certain.

How did you know when clarity was “enough” to act on, without defaulting back into urgency or overbuilding? Excited to keep following your journey. Enfold sounds like a true gift and I hope to experience it one day!

All the best in your new phase with purpose Scott! For the readers interested in doing this work "transform fear/pain into love/passion" without chemicals, just know it is possible too :)

Thank you so much for sharing your story, I loved your answer to the question "Who shall I be?", It resonates a lot. I have a similar answer, but I have no idea what's next or how to get there. But it's okay, like you said, every day we get to choose how we want to feel and what we want to do with our day. I'm taking it step by step and at the same time remain open for opportunities. Stories like yours inspire me that it is possible.

Congratulations on the new role, it sounds amazing. Keep us updated.

This is so exciting! Sounds like a really special space where you can live and serve authentically. There was a place like this in India for me and I totally get it.

Life can become so much more beautiful, aligned and purposeful than we could ever imagine. That’s what the universe wants for us. Your story is a testament to this. Sometime we need a wakeup call to realize, sometimes not. Suffering is inevitable in this human life - how we meet it, hold it, alchemize it is in our hands. Thank you for sharing, the journey continues ❤️

Scott! Wow- this felt like speaking to you directly how honest and vulnerable you were. I wish you all the very best in new adventure my friend. Can’t wait to witness the peace and joy at Enfold someday- didn’t realize you are from Vancouver too- small world indeed!

Scott - I loved your story, your 'yellow brick road' moment, and now, your new life. Enfold is definitely on my list to experience, as soon as I recover financially. 6 years trying to develop a story collection and publishing system mainly aimed at Aged Care has taken its toll. I'm not IT, and have paid swines endlessly to do the development only to end up with a half finished mess every time. I'm 74, female, and too trusting, that's for sure. And I discovered that no one in the tech world wants to partner with an older woman! In spite of my huge life and experience! But? Almost there, and would love your take on it, if you can find a few minutes. My email is chris@rememberpress.com - it's a legacy project for me, to make a difference. Because the process does. For what better 'job' to have when you're in care, and bored witless, than to tell one's story? Best always, and yes, keep writing. It's good stuff.

If I was already enjoying following you before, now I am even more ahaha appreciate you sharing your shadow moments, Scott!

There is a sentence on Murakami’s book, Norwegian Wood that says “Things will go where they're supposed to go if you just let them take their natural course.” I think this is what you are doing :)

I did bufo 2 years ago and agree that is very transformative! Waiting a bit of time to do it again. Are you guys planning to do in Lombok soon?

Big believer here too that having a community, a space to just be, to vent, slow down and to feel safe is what we all need more.
