This week, we are taking a journey into the lives of Larry and myself, Inelia.
Inelia Benz's life reads like an adventurous novel. Born in Chile to a Mapuche-Gypsy mother and a disowned Spanish noble father of a renowned Alchemical lineage, both politicians and professors, she witnessed two military coups in Chile and Argentina, and a coup attempt in Spain – talk about a dramatic childhood! She lived in Chile, Argentina, Scotland, England, and Spain, and eventually settled in Ireland for her early adult years. There, she graduated with honors in Communication Studies, adding another layer to her diverse cultural tapestry.
Inelia is famous for her work in reality expansion, consciousness evolution, self-empowerment, authentic living, healing, and the growth of perception. With a lineage that includes Mapuche Machi wisdom and Spanish Alchemist roots, she's practically destined to see beyond the everyday illusions we call "reality." Her broad exposure to different cultures and human experiences has equipped her with a unique perspective, making her a guiding light for those seeking to expand their consciousness and live more authentic, awakened lives.
Larry Buzzell had a childhood that could be described as a rollercoaster, with stops in Washington and Alaska. He started life on an original hippy organic holistic farm with his Makah stay-at-home mom, which was as idyllic as it sounds. Things took a turn when a divorce brought an alcoholic, gun-swinging, psychopathic logger into the mix. He then moved to Alaska, which wasn't all bad – it offered some respite, though with a sprinkle of bear-induced terror. At 17, Larry decided he'd had enough of the wild and headed to California to uncover the mystery of "Cali." After graduating high school, he managed restaurants in the heart of Hollywood and quickly learned that Cali wasn't all it was cracked up to be. So, he joined the Coast Guard, where he got schooled in ship navigation and Beer-n-Whiskey 101. He even found time to get married.
After four years, Larry left the Coast Guard and moved to the Makah Reservation with his then-wife, attempting a 9-to-5 life. That was until one fishing trip with his cousins convinced him to ditch the office and embrace the wild seas as a commercial fisherman. Fast forward to 2008, Larry had an epiphany about 9/11 being an inside job, which nudged him out of his alcoholic haze and onto a path of awakening. By 2010, he discovered Inelia Benz's work, took her Ascension 101 course, and – true to its promise – his life transformed for the better.
Now, Larry is a respected elder of the Makah Tribe, a professional podcaster, and a former commercial fisherman and Coast Guard veteran. His work shines a light on the brilliance of lightworkers everywhere.
In the Second Half of Driving To The Rez, which you can subscribe to support the podcast here, Larry and I explore the personal consequences of addiction and possession. We will also hear what they would tell their younger selves if they had a chance.
Enjoy!
