EP 130 | TRUST LIFE

Do you trust life?

Do you ever go into a medicine journey with a ridiculously opulent intention? Like that feeling when you stop into the store to grab a few things (but have to go get a big cart because the little one is so full that it’s too heavy?)

When you show up to the medicine in need of help, you’re often dragging every single issue and problem you can think of, along with all your expectations of how the answers will come. Maybe you think you need complex solutions to all of your problems and flaws. Because the struggle feels so big, you expect the healing to be overwhelming and drastic.

So you come with your little checklist of grievances (against yourself). And your wise plant teachers take you right into the root of everything that’s plaguing you. They pull back the veil and show you the ultimate truth with simplicity and clarity, wrapped in love.

I got a message like that from Grandmother Aya in Ecuador recently. I was looking for a bulleted list, maybe a 12 week plan, some kind of spiritual app she could upload into my DNA so I could fix everything perfectly. 🤓

Instead, she told me: “Trust LIFE.”

Over the weeks that have followed, that soft message has bloomed into a garden of understanding and relief and excitement. An invitation. Trust life. Sounds easy, right?

For a lot of us, trust isn’t easy. Not even a little. We are curled up so tight inside our walls and masks and fears and worries that our nervous systems are on high alert. Making sure nothing can get us in the big, scary world. We are exhausted, because being ready to run all the time takes a toll. So we keep looking for answers in our phones and outside ourselves. Everywhere but where they actually are. We know something is missing. Wrong somehow. But we keep jacking ourselves up waiting for a sliver of hope.

Dysregulated, hyperactive nervous systems create chronic illness, chronic pain, and chronic mental health issues. They do this as protection. For our own good. The body is very sophisticated and it can make all kinds of things happen that feel like pain, inflammation, auto-immune disorders, digestive issues, and more.

But what if you can learn how to let go? How to soften and release and chill TF out? What if these struggles are not actually big scary problems, but symptoms of needing to feel your feelings, to trust your own inner knowing, to give a voice to your own truth?

Trusting life requires trusting Nature. Changing your belief system to something more beautiful and beneficial. Something that feels resonant and true inside your heart. Trusting life means trusting your own mind, your body, your heart, and your intuition. It means saying “YES, I approve of myself. Whatever I am is okay. It’s good!”

Yes, your weirdness. Your neurodivergence. Your quirks. Your darkness. Your too muchness. Your big emotions. Your shame. Your secret dreams.

All of you belongs. All of you is on purpose. All of you is welcome. There are no mistakes. Because life doesn’t make mistakes. It innovates.

And when you can get to the place of being fully IN yourself without rejecting your own true nature, that’s where the power inside starts to make itself known.

We are here to trust life. The work I do is all about turning inward. Calling back your energy, your awareness, and your presence. Becoming best friends with all the parts of you that have been exiled and shamed. The medicines are here to show us the way back home. On a path of remembering.

The answers you seek are inside you. Wanna know how to find them?

🎙️ Trust Life

The Psychedelic Integration Podcast | EP 130 The week on the show, explore the radical yet simple act of trust—how we often resist it, why we fear it, and how embracing it can transform our lives.

We’ll examine the ways we mistrust—questioning our instincts, overthinking, and letting the critical voice in our heads convince us it’s the “real” us. But what if that voice isn’t you? What if it’s just a conditioned response to fear and uncertainty designed to keep you safe?

Learn how to:

• Trust nature (like the effortless medicine of the hummingbird)
• Trust yourself—your wisdom, your body, your choices
• Trust your people, your community, and the support around you
• Trust your heart, love, and the deeper intelligence of your emotions
• Trust your intuition, even when logic protests
• Work with resistance—when you feel the urge to run, hide, shut down, or close off. What if you chose to open and soften instead?

Trust isn’t just a feeling—it’s a practice, a belief, a daily commitment to build your capacity. Learn how to trust the unfolding, the unknown, and the messy beauty of being.

Love,

Sinclair
