After 30, your identity hardens like an operating system you can't easily update. Psychedelics can help rewire the subconscious patterns underneath, but only if you're intentional about it. Most people let their old identity run the show instead.
How do we rewire our identity? We've gotta excavate. We've gotta go into the deepest recesses of our subconscious mind to change our operating system. Our operating system basically is the way that we are gonna show up unconsciously. The challenge is, of course, is as we get older, our identities are pretty rigid, especially as you get past your 30s into your 40s and your 50s and your 60s and your 70s. But the work with psychedelics allows us to remake ourselves. And if you think of cities, cities have an identity and have a culture. Like I'm here in Austin, Texas right now. And has an identity and a culture and a vibrancy that's always changing. But the blueprints were also laid years ago. Well, same thing for you. Your identity is that makeup, and you have more freedom and more autonomy over that identity if you are hyper-intentional. But most of us are passive. I'm going to invite you that your destiny is preceded by your identity.
