Healing the Inner Child | Ep.45 — Patricia

In this episode we are joined by Patricia, a Vancouver-based Pilates and Gyrotonics studio owner who holds a special place in the Enfold story — she was part of our very first 5-day "Awakening to Life" intensive back in August 2024. Speaking with us a year and a half later, Patricia offers a rare and beautiful look into the "long tail" of integration.

Unlike some who seek out this medicine during a personal crisis, Patricia arrived at Enfold simply propelled by a lifelong dedication to self-growth. She came seeking to remove the subtle blocks that were keeping her from showing up completely in her life. With a history of psychedelic exploration dating back to the 90s, she was no stranger to expanded states. Yet, 5-MeO-DMT offered her a uniquely somatic unraveling.

Patricia takes us through the arc of her 5-day experience — from arriving at what felt like "Avalon", to a deeply tearful release honouring the healthy masculine energy of her brother.

Perhaps most powerfully, we explore how childhood conditioning shapes our bodies. Patricia shares how she broke through her mother’s mantra of "never wanting to be a burden" by boldly asking for physical support during her ceremony.

Today, she stands more centered, honouring her energy, and treating her business as a direct reflection of her internal alignment.
