S2 E12 | Peter Kennedy – The Remembering: Awakening, Integration & The Journey Home to Self
What if the greatest awakening of your life came disguised as loss, emptiness, or collapse?
What if everything you built was meant to fall apart, so you could remember who you truly are?
In this episode of Beloved Futures, host Aubrey Morgan Yee sits down with Peter Kennedy – entrepreneur, author, and seeker – for a deeply honest and transformative conversation about the inner journey that began after the outer world he built came undone. Once the CEO of a global company, Pete found himself facing the limits of success, addiction, and control. His descent through loss and plant medicine ultimately became a pilgrimage home to his own heart – chronicled in his book The Remembering: A Journey Back to Self.

About Our Guest
Peter Kennedy is a father of five, entrepreneur, spiritual seeker, and author of The Remembering. Once driven by a relentless pursuit of success (culminating in the $140M exit of his tech startup), Peter’s awakening came not from achievement, but from surrender. A life-changing temazcal ceremony in the jungles of Brazil cracked open the armor he had spent decades building and set him on a path of deep healing and spiritual transformation. Through plant medicine, somatic therapy, and confronting the parts of himself he had long exiled, Peter began to remember who he truly is.
Today, he is the co-founder of EvolveWell Inc., a conscious technology company redefining growth from the inside out. Peter’s journey is a testament to the power of letting go and the beauty of becoming whole.
What We Explore in This Episode
In this rich and soulful exchange, Aubrey and Peter trace the contours of awakening through the lenses of loss, identity, and integration. They invite us to see transformation not as a destination, but as a daily devotion to awareness, love, and truth.
Key Takeaways:
From control to surrender – how Peter’s journey through Iboga and other plant medicines revealed the fear underlying success and control.
The myth of busyness – dismantling the cultural illusion that productivity equals worth, and discovering presence instead.
Love as the ultimate integration – the moment Peter brought compassion to the parts of himself he once rejected, he reshaped his relationship with his family and the generational healing that would follow.
Remembering God – finding spirituality beyond religion, in direct relationship with the divine within.
Authenticity as power – why embracing our “weirdness” is the medicine the world needs most.
Whether you’re navigating a dark night of the soul, awakening to your true nature, or simply longing to live more authentically, this conversation will remind you that even in the unraveling, you are already home.
With Love and Gratitude,
Aubrey Morgan Yee
