THE PROBLEM YOU’RE FACING
You've hit a plateau.
Traditional approaches can't break through.
You're ready for something different.
Something deeper.
Something real.
If not now, when?
If you've been feeling stuck despite years of recovery work, traditional therapy, or spiritual seeking, if there's a voice inside whispering, "there has to be more than this.”
You're in the right place.
You've done the work. You've read the books, attended the meetings, sat in therapy chairs, and followed all the "shoulds." But something still feels missing. You're successful on paper, maybe even thriving in many areas of your life, yet there's this persistent sense that you're living at half-volume. That the person you're meant to be is still waiting to fully emerge.
I work with those in recovery who are looking for a different, more trauma-informed approach than what is typically offered. You may be in recovery and curious about plant medicine, newer to sobriety and ready to accelerate your healing, or on a conscious path where alcohol simply doesn't fit, you've found your guide to help you get back home to yourself.
I want to be clear, you do not need to have an interest in plant medicine in order to work with me.
Meeting you where you are
The truth is, most integration coaches focus on the sexy ceremony experience while missing the essential work that creates lasting change. The recovery and psychedelic communities often don't understand each other, leaving you without proper guidance for this powerful healing intersection. You're tired of surface-level approaches, spiritual bypassing, and cookie-cutter solutions that don't honor your unique journey.
Where are you on your journey?
RECOVERY WARRIOR
With years of sobriety, you’ve built a successful life, but feel called to go deeper. It’s a pull that you can’t deny any longer. You want to explore plant medicine, and need someone who truly understands both worlds of recovery and psychedelic integration without compromising the foundation you've worked so hard to build.
EMERGING SEEKER
You’re newer in your sobriety journey and have done the homework and research, but feel stuck in your head. You're committed to your healing journey but need more than surface-level approaches. You want community, education, and guidance that honors where you are without rushing you where you're not ready to go. You’re ready to go deeper.
EVERYDAY ALCHEMIST
You’ve done meaningful inner work and built a life rooted in awareness, recovery, and self-honesty. You’re not new to growth and you’re not done. You feel the call to go deeper, but plant medicine isn’t your path. You want real integration: grounded, trauma-aware support that helps you live what you know, regulate your nervous system, and move out of old patterns without bypassing or spiritual performance.
CONSCIOUS EXPLORER
Not in traditional recovery and have done significant inner work. Alcohol doesn't align with your life and/or medicine practice. You're frustrated by ceremony-focused approaches that skip the real and raw work of integration. You need someone strong enough to call you forward and help you break through your patterns.
Meet Your Guide
Hey, beautiful human!
I'm Natalie Austin, and I've been exactly where you are.
Six years into my recovery, I felt that same call to explore plant medicine, and couldn't find anyone who truly understood both worlds. I was tired of choosing between my recovery foundation and my desire for deeper healing. So I became the guide I wished I'd had, the bridge between these two powerful paths.
I'm not just another integration coach who happens to know about recovery.
Recovery coaching is my foundation.
Psychedelic integration is my magic.
I specialize in the intersection of these worlds because I believe everyone is recovering from something, whether it's addiction, trauma, patterns, or simply not loving ourselves enough. The work will do together is not about outsourcing your authority; it is about helping you build the capacity to lead your own life with clarity, integrity, and care.
Aligned Adventure Method
FOUR COMPASS POINTS
This isn't a rigid checklist or lockstep program. It's a co-created adventure with space to wander, pause, and pivot. You always have agency in the route, and I hold the container so you can explore without getting lost.
Together, these compass points form a living map back to yourself. They guide you to reclaim your sovereignty. This isn’t about striving to become someone new, but about remembering who you already are. As you integrate each step, you rise into the wholeness that has always been yours, walking forward with confidence, freedom, and deep self-trust.
-
"Where am I right now?"
We start by naming the truth without judgment. Seeing patterns, needs, desires, and pain points clearly. We get honest about your starting coordinates, because you can't navigate without knowing where you are.
-
"Where does your soul want to go?”
This isn't about where you think you should go, but where your core self is calling you. We clarify intentions and desired feelings, and use those as the map. This is about coming home to yourself, not becoming someone else's version of success.
-
"What steps am I willing to take now?"
What brave step is your soul calling for? We brainstorm possibilities, choose doable next steps, and integrate embodiment practices, rituals, or mindset shifts. Small, consistent steps over massive, unsustainable pushes. Every action supports your recovery and long-term healing.
-
"What am I learning and applying?"
This is where the magic gets woven into your daily life. Integration isn't optional. We pause and digest because lasting change happens in the body, not just the mind. We reflect on shifts, wins, and challenges, adjust course without shame, and celebrate even subtle progress.
Ready to come home to yourself?
Your sparkle is showing, and it's time to let it fully shine.
I'm here to walk beside you as a co-creator in your process, never as a guru on a pedestal. I'll hold space for all your mess and all your brilliance to sit side by side. Together, we'll create the kind of transformation that honors both the sacred and the messy parts of being human.
You are not broken. You are becoming. Your wholeness is already here. It's just waiting for you to claim it. The door is open. Will you walk through?
The Cost of Waiting
Here's what I know to be true: Starting is the magic.
But if you keep waiting for the “perfect” time, you stay tethered to patterns that no longer serve you, circling insight without ever landing in real, embodied change.
For some, that looks like pursuing plant medicine experiences with guides who don’t understand recovery, nervous system safety, or integration ~ risking sobriety, destabilization, or missing the work that actually creates lasting transformation.
For others, it looks quieter: years of therapy, books, podcasts, and spiritual insight… without the integration. Growth without embodiment. Awareness without practice. Subtle spiritual bypassing dressed up as “I’m fine.”
Here’s the truth most people don’t say out loud: this work isn’t about plant medicine or no plant medicine.
It’s about integration. It’s about learning how to live what you already know. It’s about meeting your life ~ your relationships, your patterns, your nervous system ~ with honesty, skill, and support.
There is no perfect entry point. There is only the moment you decide to begin.
And the moment you choose yourself, the magic starts moving.
If not now, when will you finally say yes to yourself?
“Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?”

What Success Looks Like
When you work with me, transformation isn't just something you understand in your head. It's something you feel in your body and live in your daily life. What you will experience working with me:
Empowerment, groundedness, and being deeply connected to your authentic self. The shame and limitation that may have lingered despite years of sobriety or inner work finally lift. You move through life with clarity, self-trust, and an unshakable sense of your own magic.
Your relationships deepen as you show up more authentically. You become a model for others who are curious about this path. You've learned to take up all the space you deserve without apology.
