A meditation takes me into one of the darkest places I’ve ever gone, asking over and over: What’s the point? I confront my own insignificance, the absence of any clear purpose, and the unsettling thought that life carries on without me. But on the other side of that darkness, I discover an unexpected freedom—permission to stop striving, release judgment, and simply live. This episode is about letting go of the need for meaning and finding peace in being here, as I am.

After two weeks of feeling disconnected, I committed to staying in bed until I reconnected with the merge between my body, mind, and soul. It took three hours of discomfort, distraction, and surrender—but I got there. And then… I lost it within minutes of re-entering the noise of family life. In this raw reflection, I explore the fragility of sacred presence, the grief that comes when it's shattered, and the anger of returning to a world that doesn’t seem to care. This episode captures what it’s like to touch something divine—and then try to live inside a world that forgot.

After a powerful medicine journey with an intention to unblock self-expression, Tyler shares a real-time reflection on what unfolded. What began as a search for cause and clarity evolved into a total dissolution of identity, structure, and perception.

He wrestles with detachment, the paradox of meaninglessness, and the unexpected guidance to stop trying to contribute in the ways he once believed mattered. Through metaphors, family moments, and honest confusion, this is a deep integration of surrender, curiosity, and merging with the now.
