My Breakthrough Story

Kamila Duda | NOV 13, 2025

Before the shift, my life began in a home where I had to grow up fast. Being the older sister meant taking care of my little sister and setting the example. There were many beautiful moments filled with laughter, travel, and family time, but there was also anger, tension, and addiction that shaped much of my early experience.

Everything changed when my dad decided to move back to Poland. I had been living with him, and when he left, I had to return to my mom’s home. That change came with lessons I wasn’t prepared for. My mom asked me to pay rent, something my dad never did, and in that moment I felt my sense of security slip away.

At nineteen, I made the choice to move out and live on my own. It felt both freeing and isolating. I told myself I could only rely on me, that I had to handle everything alone. That belief became my identity and the way I survived.

The struggles that followed tested me deeply. I worked hard, constantly trying to prove my independence. Underneath it all was a story that repeated in my mind: I am on my own, no one is coming to help me. I did not realize that even when my life appeared strong on the outside, I was still living through that pain.

My true breakthrough began during my Yoga Teacher Training. That was when I started asking deeper questions about life, energy, and purpose. Through yoga, meditation and oracle cards, I began awakening parts of myself that had been asleep for years. When the oracle cards gave me the message to open third eye, I searched how to open my third eye, and I found a list of twenty-five practices. I had already done twenty-four of them, except one, Ayahuasca! I felt called to complete the journey.

The ceremony completely changed me. It felt as though I had died and entered a vast space of darkness and stillness. There was no fear, only peace. I thought I had left my body for good, I thought I died, but instead, I found freedom. When I returned, I felt as if I had been reborn, seeing the world again for the first time.

Right after the ceremony was over, I got home to my moms, and it was Thanksgiving. My sister was getting ready, putting on makeup, and I said to her, “Stop tanning, you look like a carrot.”

She smiled and said, “Nice to see you, I love you too.”

In that moment I froze. I heard my dad’s voice in my own. From that moment on, I suddenly saw all the parts of me that I had inherited from my parents, the patterns I had been carrying without realizing it. That moment began the process of shedding those layers and rediscovering who I truly am for many years to follow.

Life transformed in ways I could never have planned. I followed my passion, became a yoga teacher, bought my first home, and lived by the ocean. But even then, I realized I was still following expectations of who I thought I should be.

Eight years later, I felt the call again. I chose to leave everything behind and follow my soul’s path, traveling, teaching, and sharing my story.

Now I dedicate my life to helping others reconnect with their truth through shadow work, energy practices, and embodiment.

My purpose is to remind others that they are not broken, they are remembering who they truly are.
