About Me

The bi-line of Soul Inspired Adventure was my wake-up call a few years back. Not satisfied where I was in the current moment, I realized I had allowed society, parents, school, friends and enemies, work and other outside influences mold my beliefs around what life should be. I wasn’t really sure what triggered it, but it didn’t matter. I was looking in the mirror staring at someone that wasn’t me, or at least the true me. Not only did I allow it, I had to take full responsibility because truth was left at the station while I pulled out down the tracks of what I thought I was supposed to be.

Maybe it was the ice-water-to-the-face of the Covid shutdown that broke the trance and force me to ask, “Is this what life is meant to be?” Or, maybe it was the age I reached, or the unexpected passing of a couple friends who transitioned to the other side with far more life still left in them. I had a nice house, family, quiet neighborhood, comfortable lifestyle, travel, and a good job. To most, everything looked nice on paper, and I was very grateful for where I was. Yet, there was this hollow sense and somewhat empty feeling inside. By society’s standards, I was doing pretty well, yet I found myself asking, “Is this really me?”.

Maybe you can relate.

I’ve been a practitioner of meditation for over 35 years, honed my intuitive skills, became educated in several energy healing modalities, versed in Akashic record reading, and have absorbed myself in many spiritual practices (not religion) along the way. I guess you can say I’ve been seeking most of my life trying to understand why I was here and what this human experience is really meant to be.

Yet it wasn’t until four to five years ago, through a series of odd circumstances and several amazing synchronicities that this wake up call happened (the type where you walk away, shaking your head and saying, “You just can’t make this stuff up”). Fortunately, it wasn’t a life-threatening moment or traumatic event that caused the shift, but more of a what-the-f moment and realization that I might have this whole life thing all wrong.

My name is Stas (“Stosh”) and I’ve spent the majority of my adult life as a technology creative in one form or another. However, in that wake-up moment, I questioned everything about life, purpose, truth and meaning, and more importantly how did I get off-track and where do I need, or really want, to be. It began a deep-dive into the depths of “who am I?”. And, it wasn’t like this was anything new. I’ve been drawn to philosophy, the spiritual realms and inward introspection ever since I can remember. It’s been an on-again, off-again rollercoaster ride through most of my years.

It was time to start a new adventure and a completely different creative outlet. If I was going to rediscover a version 2.0  of myself, how many others might be questioning were they are and looking to do the same?

For me, this site serves as a creative outlet and an opportunity to share some of my own philosophies and musings, this time through writing—everything and anything that’s been rattling around in my head. And, if the content somehow resonates with an audience and helps others along their own adventure or their own path to greater happiness, then even better. Lose your mind, and find your soul.
