Have you experienced a crisis that felt like an initiation?

      The shamanic path is often marked by rupture. Something breaks within or around you, and what once made sense no longer holds. Though these moments are trying, they are also transforming. In the shamanic path, pain is required before one can begin.

      Have you lived through a crisis that felt like an initiation? What did it strip away, and what did it awaken?

      Yeah. I been through one of those. Wrecked my bike few years back. Wasn’t sure I was gonna make it. One minute I’m flyin down the highway, wind in my face, feelin free. Next thing I know, I’m layin in a ditch starin up at the sky, blood in my mouth, thinkin… so this is it. But it wasn’t.
      Something changed after that. Like the world cracked open. All the stuff I thought mattered just drained right outta me. Felt like I’d been peeled clean. That crash stripped away the life I was tryin to hold together. And in the quiet that came after, I saw what I really wanted. Not a bigger paycheck. Not status. Just truth. And room to live it.
      It hurt like hell. Still does sometimes. But it woke me up. Whole new trail opened after that. And I been walkin it since.
