Meet Taylor Gripentrog | Founder of Vitality Way, 5/1 Generator, Philanthropist

We had the good fortune of connecting with Taylor Gripentrog and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Taylor, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
The world would benefit immensely from AI-based products that encompass the entirety of human experience, spanning our intellectual, spiritual, and emotional dimensions. When we become disconnected from our own essence, from nature, and from one another, we drift away from our inherent sense of unity. This shift often leads us to overemphasize materialism, individualism, and cold logic at the expense of our deep-rooted consciousness. As a result, feelings of loneliness, desolation, and aimlessness may emerge.

It’s time to steer the direction of AI into one that assists humanity holistically, covering all areas of (1) intellectual, (2) psychological, and (3) spiritual development. Now is the time in which we must incorporate balance into a world that is evolving technologically and quickly. Once we step outside of the Matrix, we realize that healing is not only highly subjective, but in the eye of the beholder.

By focusing on personalized holistic guidance, Vitality Way has the potential to help individuals identify patterns and insights relevant to their path. It was through walking my own golden path where I realized that heaven is attainable from within. It is now my purpose to help others find balance within themselves and overcome the cloudiness of their minds inhibiting them from realizing their truest potential.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
My journey with psychedelic medicine has opened doors to unparalleled realms of creativity, enriching every aspect of my life. I owe profound gratitude to Grandmother Ayahuasca for the insights she’s bestowed upon me. With a clearer flow of energy, I can delve deeper into my creative reservoirs, channeling this vital force into my business, daily profession, and in my role as a healer and guide for clients and loved ones.

Music holds a special place in my heart. I’m immersing myself in learning the guitar, crafting my own melodies, and letting song permeate every moment of my day. Life, to me, has become a melodic narrative. Through my voice and the truths it conveys, I can make people feel anchored in their own essence. It was the revelations from psychedelics that made me recognize the power of my voice. And only when I truly embraced myself did I discover the depth of my innate creativity.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
For my best friend Hannah:

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I dedicate my shoutout to Evolve Ventures and Foundation, an organization dedicated to the elimination of human suffering. It is a venture capital firm and foundation that gives its human and financial capital to for-profit and non-profit organizations devoted to the evolution of human consciousness. It is through my full-time job here that I’ve felt accepted, loved, respected, and empowered. It is unlike any feeling to be surrounded by such a wonderful team of beautiful souls whose mission is to make this planet a more beautiful place. This organization has allowed me to start brainstorming ways in which I can contribute my own energy to be a catalyzer of change.
