Physical
We started working out together, going to partner group fitness and latin dance classes as one of our intimacy and connection rituals
About Us
Chelsea & Les
We met on Tinder even though we had mutual friends for over a decade. We met during the zombie apocalypse (pandemic) 6 years ago. We just celebrated our 1st Wedding Anniversary and 6 years together…and we are more connected and with a level of intimacy beyond anything that we ever thought possible!
Why Us?? For your Couples Connection Psychedelic Experience...
Choosing to improve your relationship using Psychedelics is well, let’s just say, way out of the box for most couples!
We get it. We had some major safety considerations to make the decision as well.
Finding support from a 'certified' guide or at least an 'experienced' guide or who gets YOU, YOUR situation and YOUR concerns is CHALLENGING.
If you embark on this journey, it is imperative to choose the right Guide(s) for you.
So, we thought that we should outline our combined history, experiences and foundation that we bring to the table to truly stand in support of each of your personal transformations and the reinvention of your relationship.
So far, the majority of couples we have worked with have known us in some capacity or been privately referred (Thank You by the Way!!)
We would love to broaden our reach to those who are not friends yet!
Our story
Who Are We?
- We had mutual friends for a decade, floated in mutual circles and knew who each other were but didn’t meet until we…matched on Tinder!
- We started dating in the middle of the zombie apocalypse, ie: pandemic, and met for a prohibited river valley walk…ssshhh!
- We have been in a relationship for over 6 years; hello later in life connection…a little older, perhaps (hopefully!) a little wiser ;)
- We have been involved in personal and spiritual development as participants, facilitators and speakers for over two decades.
- Les has trade experience as an electrician, as well as project management and project scheduling experience. Chelsea has a psychology background with a previous career in group fitness along with a variety of leadership and facilitator certifications.
- Les is an empty nester of three incredible adult children whom we have great relationships with.
- We have, and are living, the sandwich generation taking care of our aging parents. We have buried two out of four of them while supporting Les’ three kids and our two large cats.
- Navigated depression, anxiety, panic attacks and adult ADHD
- Les has faced great financial difficulty including bankruptcy once and almost twice.
- Experienced distance and the creation of parallel lives that simply occurred by jumping into buying a house together after a year of dating, in the depths of the stress of a pandemic without living with one another first.
- The truth was that the relationship was not particularly in jeopardy, however we were navigating conflicting values and the lies that we were both telling ourselves about wanting an “open relationship,” read: self protection and guarding.
- We faced the truth of this in our first threshold (therapeutic dose) medicine experience
- This experience became the turning point and instigated our turning point in our relationship in 2023.
- Knowing the POWER of psychedelic medicine for our own healing and relationship transformation (like NOTHING else available out there), we started our own process of guided medicine journeys together and individually for a period of two years.
During this time, not only did we transform our relationship, but we transformed OURSELVES in all ways. Just some of which are listed below!
Commitment
after our first Connection Experience we were clear that we wanted to be with one another exclusively for the rest of our lives, ie: Les knew that Chelsea was the woman that he wanted to marry.
Communication
We shared/invested hours of deep transparent conversation from a space of true curiosity and a desire to understand ALL of the things that needed to be said all that we knew
Emotional
Created space for feelings and emotions in a way that we NEVER had before
Sensual/Sexual
we deepened our physical connection, exploration and play and continue to explore new and fun ways to connect intimately, while releasing the attachment to outcomes/climax and practicing true presence with one another in ways we have never experienced
Alignment
We have (and are currently) in the process of redesigning our businesses/work and life to be in alignment with US vs to simply make money or fulfill old, outdated roles and obligations. This will take some time, but we really feel like we are clearing the decks for how we want our work/life to be structured on our terms and in our timeline
Support
We had REAL difficulties surface, as in past recurring individual issues, that significantly impacted our relationship. What we are incredibly proud of is that we went and got support, not as soon as we should have, even though the importance of support was strongly encouraged from the beginning of embarking on this work, from experts in the field and both of us put ALL of us on the line and on the table to heal...not easy, not smooth AND we are showing up for ourselves and each other and holding the commitment to US
Adventure
We have been RELIGIOUS and 100% committed to our "Adventure Nights" every 4-8 weeks where we simply show up for one another, pour into one another and focus 100% on one another. These Adventures are the mortar that cements us together
- In March of 2024 we received our Guide Certification knowing what our calling was for this sacred work.
- We started offering our Connection Experience to couples in February of 2026.
- Les has begun to scale back working in his primary business to work with Chelsea and focus on serving and supporting couples to transform themselves and their relationship using Psychedelics as one of the pathways.
- Whew - There you have it!!
