Come to Japan!

Nature b-roll divider?

As one of our next annual world travel and group pilgrimage opportunities, we are organizing an initial scouting mission in Japan.

This is a 3-pronged program with the following purpose:

1. Cinematic Docuseries
Filming a docuseries to learn about, preserve, and disseminate the rich traditional teachings that are the cultural heritage of Japan.
Examples of the teaching we will explore, one episode at a time are: Ikigai, Moai, Godai, Kintsugi, and many more.

2. Scouting “Akiyas”
Akiyas are abandoned countryside properties and traditional retreat homes currently being offered for free or very cheap due to population decline in the rural areas of Japan.
Japan exists along the same latitudinal lines as our Colorado center, on the other side of the world.
This intuitive visionary scouting mission is intended as a feasibility assessment for the possibility of opening a new land-based InterWorld Center in Japan.
We are open to community collaborators and co-investors in this vision.
It is worth noting that, in the Mediterranean, the Italian island of Sardinia is offering similar opportunities as Japan, with an emphasis on collaborations with creatives and community organizations. It is also in the same latitudinal region, and about equal thirds around the world from Japan and Colorado.

3. Group Pilgrimage / Destination Retreat
We are exploring the possibility of bringing a group on this trip for a transformative and immersive cultural exchange as well as an educational experience with exposure to the natural landscapes and traditional cultures of Japan, in addition to interspiritual holistic wellness practices. We have partners and affiliates in Asian countries like Thailand and Indonesia and may want to make multiple stops or bring them on board for this retreat and pilgrimage.

A sample of unsolicited testimonials
from within ~24 hours of just one event in 2025:

“InterWorld”

Bridging Worlds


there is no separation: everything is interconnected
the inner and outer realms reflect and correlate
psyche and reality are one

“…that which is below corresponds to that which is above…”

The Illusion of Disconnection and Separation is the Root Cause of All Societal Issues
Those Ever-Recurring Societal Issues are Surface-Level Symptoms of the Underlying Illusion


Separation from Self becomes Disease
Separation from Each Other becomes Warfare and Inequality
Separation from Nature becomes Pollution
Separation from the Cosmos becomes Ignorance


If the inner state of humanity is greed and corruption then, sooner than later,
whichever external systems are in place,
they will inevitably become just another expression of that same old greed and tyranny.

If the inner state of humanity is awareness and empathy,
then every aspect of civilization will inevitably come to reflect and express those same virtues and values.

positive change cannot be imposed through external systems
instead it must flower naturally from the collective psychological maturation of humanity
inevitably permeating and transforming every aspect of society to reflect that inner transformation

for thousands of years,
the same human drama has repeated in one epoch or another,
from one empire to the next

we cannot just keep “other-ing” the issue with more temporary “band-aids,”
pointing fingers, scape-goating, casting blame, taking sides…

if we keep externalizing the problem or solution, then
(even when we think we are helping solve the problem)
we actually become a part of perpetuating it, by accident…

if we wish to see the change,
then we must learn to BE it,
starting in the context of our own daily lives…

dedicating our own being and conduct to peace,
personally, relationally, vocationally, universally,
serving our loved ones, our neighborhoods, and ultimately the world…

Walking the Way
to Inner World Peace.

Our Core Values

Responsibility

Reclaim Ownership of Your Projections
to develop a truly Solutions-Oriented attitude and approach

“You never change things by fighting the existing reality.
To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.”
-Buckminster Fuller


Challenges are inevitable, but how we respond to them is up to us.

Do we react unconsciously and automatically, becoming puppets of external stimuli? Or do we pause and choose a better way forward, from within?
In the words of Reb Zalman Shachter-Shalomi, the entire spiritual path is working towards getting “the ‘Oops’ before the Mistake.”
As Dr. Serge Reynaud de La Ferriere suggested, can we move ourselves up to the realm of being a Cause, rather than staying trapped in the realm of being an Effect?
This is the real Alchemy.

At InterWorld, we champion the values of Meaning-Making, Self-Accountability, and Growth-Mindset… learning from experience to cultivate wisdom and mature.
Not only is a more conscious, harmonious, and sustainable model for society possible, it is necessary, and it is up to us to create it.
We are the ones we have been waiting for. Nobody is coming to save us except for our own ingenuity and capacity to work together.
We are the problem and the solution: the answer lies within. Now is the time to be the change that we wish to see in the world around us.


Universal Respect

Respect begins with seeing
Recognizing that
As Our essential identity is our identical essence. Thou art that. You am I and I am another you.

Solutions-Oriented Responsibility
Universal Respect
Heart-Centered Presence

About Me

A Life of Transformation & Purpose

I’ve always felt a deep calling to create change in the world. Maybe you have too.

I was raised in a family of dissidents—my mother risked everything to smuggle banned books and fight for truth in the post-Stalin Soviet era. From an early age, I understood that transformation isn’t just personal—it’s collective. But as I grew, I realized that I couldn’t change the world without first changing myself.

That realization set me on a lifelong journey.

As a child, I was drawn to philosophy, meditation, and spiritual modalities. Then, as a teenager, I had a spontaneous, life-changing mystical experience—one that shattered my old perceptions and opened me to something far greater. That moment led me on an intense path of exploration, traveling across the world to study wisdom traditions, energy work, and holistic healing practices from both ancient and modern perspectives.

Over the years, I’ve studied with Indigenous elders, Buddhist masters, and leading providers in psychology and neuroscience. I earned my PhD in contemplative psychology, blending the best of scientific insights and spiritual wisdom to help people break through limitations and reconnect with their well-being.

Through my work, I’ve had the honor of guiding hundreds of clients toward personal and spiritual transformation—helping them move past disconnection, rediscover meaning, and step into the fullest version of themselves.

If you’re ready to reconnect—with yourself, your purpose, and the world around you—I’d love to assist and support you on that journey.
