The Manifesto

70 days. 40 ceremonies. Taking the manuscript into the heart of the medicine to see if it actually breathes.

The noise stops today. On March 22, I am entering a 10 week container in Costa Rica. 70 days. 40 ceremonies. I am taking the 55,000 words of my manuscript, Ah Ha, into the heart of the medicine to see if they actually breathe. This isn't just a book of ideas. It is a philosophy that I'm putting through the fire. I'll be documenting the process every single day. The insights, the friction, and the reality of what happens when you stop running and start listening to the universal truth our heart sings. I couldn't have imagined where I would be now, almost 80 ceremonies ago. Nor do I dare to expect where I will be after 40 more. I surrender. I'm just another log in the fire.

The Resignation

March 16, 2026Watch on TikTokWatch on Instagram

20 years in software. 9 years as a digital nomad. 18 months of ceremony. The resignation from the architecture of success.

I'm Charlie. I spent 20 years in software chasing the architecture of success. Even during nine years as a digital nomad, I was just moving the same internal lead to different parts of the map. I realized that you can change your zip code every month and still be trapped in the same internal code. I was successful by every metric, but I was hollow. Then, in September 2024, I found Ayahuasca. The logic I had lived by for two decades simply stopped working. I resigned from my career and turned down the jobs society told me I should want so I could study the medicine. Over the last 18 months, I've spent nearly 20 weeks in ceremony, rebuilding my foundation from the ground up. I'm not here to sell the medicine. I'm here to share the fruit, not the tree. I created The Intrinsic Experience as the hub for this work. This is where the wisdom of Ayahuasca meets Hermetic philosophy and the alchemical art of being human. TheIntrinsicExperience.com is now live, and it's the foundation for my upcoming book, Ah Ha. I am done building digital architectures for a world I no longer recognize. I'm going into the fire to find what's actually true. It is time to see what's left when the noise stops.

Hello Brothers and Sisters. Thank you for providing the space and time to listen to me. My name is Charlie. For twenty years, I built digital architectures for a world driven by external metrics. I lived the life of a digital nomad, chasing success across the globe, only to realize I was just moving the same internal bugs to different parts of the map. In September 2024, after a heartbreaking layoff, Ayahuasca called me to Costa Rica. It wasn't long after that I resigned from my career of Data Architecture to study a different kind of code: the internal laws that govern who we are as human beings. This is the birth of TheIntrinsicExperience.com. This isn't a travel blog or a journal of a vacation. It is a research hub for my upcoming Book: Ah Ha. On March 22, I am entering a 70-day container in Costa Rica: 40 ceremonies to stress-test the principles I've written. I am putting my life and my logic into the fire to see what actually breathes when the noise of the world stops. I am documenting this entire process, the raw, unedited truth of the Alchemist's Ledger, for everyone to see. I'm inviting you to be a part of this research. Your support on this page isn't just funding a journey; it's fueling the documentation of a total system rebuild. It's an investment in a new blueprint for being human. If you believe in the necessity of this work, or if you want to see what is left of a man when the fire is done, I invite you to contribute. Thank you for being part of the Great Work. Join the journey at TheIntrinsicExperience.com.

The Request for Testimony

A personal request to brothers and sisters of the medicine for a raw, 30-second testimony.

Hello Brothers and Sisters, I want to thank you for being a part of my journey. It has been an honor to explore this medicine with you. I'm finalizing my website, TheIntrinsicExperience.com, before heading to Costa Rica for 10 weeks to finish my upcoming Book: Ah Ha. During this intense dive with the medicine, I will be documenting my entire journey on TikTok. It's going to reflect the raw truth of my process, the same truth you've witnessed firsthand. I'm reaching out because you have seen my transition, and it is with a humble and open heart that I ask for your support. If you are willing, I'm looking for a raw, 30-second clip of you speaking to the camera about what you have witnessed in me. My intent is to show those who stumble onto my work that this is not a 'retreat' in the jungle. This is a dedicated transformation and a complete commitment to the journey of this beautiful medicine. I want to keep the focus on the research and the intensity of my process. Please avoid terms like 'shaman,' 'trips,' or 'retreats.' Instead, I'm looking for your honest take on: The integrity of the way I'm approaching this work. The shift you've seen as I am 'becoming the work' and 'becoming the medicine.' The truthfulness in our shared experiences and my commitment to holding an open heart. I'm not looking for a polished review. I just want a direct-to-camera reflection on the man going into the fire. Please send the video clip to me directly here on WhatsApp. If you can get this to me by March 19 that will be great, but I understand if you can't or if this request is outside your comfort zone.
