Jim Fortin
About this episode

Start Your Transformation Now 


In this episode of The Jim Fortin Podcast, Jim finally answers one of the most frequently asked questions: Who is Don Xavier, the shaman? For years, Jim has referenced Don Xavier in passing, but he’s never fully shared his story—until now. In this deeply personal episode, Jim reveals how he met Don Xavier, the profound impact he has had on his life, and the powerful spiritual wisdom he has shared over the decades.


Jim takes listeners behind the scenes, offering an inside look into Don Xavier’s journey, from his early apprenticeship with Don Juan Matus to his work as a shaman and healer. He also shares his own experiences, including remarkable moments of transformation, dreamtime teachings, and lessons about merging with higher consciousness.


If you've ever been curious about the man behind the wisdom that has shaped so much of Jim's teachings, this episode is a must-listen.


What You’ll Discover in This Episode: 

  • Who is Don Xavier? (00:55) – A closer look at his background and how he became a shaman. 
  • Jim’s first meeting with Don Xavier (10:20) – How skepticism turned into a life-changing journey. 
  • The teachings of Don Juan Matus (18:45) – The connection between Don Xavier, Carlos Castaneda, and ancient Toltec wisdom.

Listen, apply, and enjoy! 


Transformational Takeaway 

Our 3D reality is a limitation created by the analytical mind. True transformation begins when we let go of rigid thinking and merge with the infinite wisdom that exists beyond our logical understanding. The path to deeper awareness starts with humility, trust, and opening the heart to possibilities we cannot yet explain.
