Pete’s Story

Pete Volos, a native of south-eastern Sydney, Australia was raised in a household steeped in Greek ancestry, his parents were both Australian born with their parents immigrated after World War Two. The Greek culture, a powerful influence from his grandparents, instilled in him a unique perspective on life. Pete along with his siblings spent much of their time climbing trees at their grandparent’s home in Sydney, Pete was very much a nature child. Throughout his early childhood life, Pete had a curiosity about spirituality, often attending Christian church services with his aunt.

However, life took a challenging turn during Pete's completion of his Higher School Certificates, as both his grandfathers passed away both unexpectedly. This period prompted deep introspection, unraveling family history marked by trauma. Pete embarked on a journey to heal ancestral wounds, discovering that his great-grandfathers had perished during the war, betrayed by their neighbours and then were captured and killed by the Germans in front of their families, this tragic history imprinted a deep wound around trust in the masculine, one that rippled across generations and became a central thread in Pete’s own healing journey.

Beyond ancestral trauma, Pete recognised a recurring theme in his own journey, especially around love, intimacy and belonging. Diving into subconscious patterns led him back not only to conception and birth, where he unearthed a deep-rooted fear of rejection in the womb, but also into past life memories. In these lifetimes, he encountered similar threads of abandonment, loss and the fear of losing his path. These echoes shaped avoidance and dissociative patterns in this life, yet also gave him the opportunity to meet them, heal them, and transform them through the very work he now shares.

Post-high school, unexplainable stress and anxiety consumed him, leading to a phase of escapism through a party lifestyle fuelled by alcohol, drugs, clubbing, and unhealthy eating. Amidst this self-destructive whirlwind, Pete questioned the core aspects of his existence, his contentment, health, and spiritual alignment. Seeking answers, he stumbled upon Reiki and Kinesiology, which gradually alleviated layers of stress and anxiety uncovering the first glimpses of relief and a pathway back toward healing, purpose, and truth.

Despite his party-centric lifestyle, Pete managed to earn a university degree in Civil Engineering, providing him with a grounded structure throughout his spiritual expansion. Over a decade as an engineer, he cultivated a balanced perspective on spirituality, integrating both feminine and masculine energies. This integration became the foundation for the holistic way he now approaches healing and transformation.

During this transformative decade, Pete not only healed but also discovered a passion for guiding others through their own storms of self-doubt. Deepening his understanding of a holistic approach, relationships, purpose and career aspirations, Pete reconnected with his inner self.

His journey started to become clear when he explored the healing properties of the Cannabis plant to clear trauma. Using Cannabis as a plant ally in mindfulness practices since 2011, Pete found it to be a powerful tool for opening his heart and fostering curiosity about life. Despite occasional encounters with anxiety and paranoia, he delved deeper into the medicine, undergoing a profound "dark night of the soul" experience that revealed his inner struggles and the need for transmutation.

Studying various holistic modalities, including intensive breathwork training, Pete felt a calling to join the first legal psychedelic plant medicine centre in the United States. Through Cannabis assisted psychedelic therapy, he accessed deeper aspects of his psyche, healing dissociative patterns and releasing past life, ancestral and childhood traumas, Pete learnt to trust himself and others again.

Journeying with Pete supports emotional liberation, somatic release, physical renewal, and a deeper reconnection with the body to ease stress and anxiety. His purpose is to guide others into soulful harmony, helping them release past traumas, regulate their nervous system, and align with their true essence so they can live with clarity, joy, and purpose.

Pete emphasises that health goes beyond physical well-being, considering it our greatest treasure. While acknowledging the merits of conventional medicine, he believes that natural healing modalities resonate more deeply with the body, mind, and soul.

Armed with a wealth of experience in personal development, spirituality, and a deep somatic understanding of the body, Pete’s dharma is to support others in living their fullest lives. Drawing on a variety of therapeutic modalities, he guides people on inner journeys that awaken their innate healing power and natural flow of energy. In essence, Pete embodies the role of a Reflector in Human Design, a mirror who reveals you to yourself, much like the spirit of Cannabis, reflecting truth, releasing illusion, and opening the way for growth, self-awareness, and transformation.
