"I'm like an addict, largely," he says. "Much of much of my personality is very, very addict like." He goes on to talk about how the retreat helped him understand his own behavior in the past so much. The human alone is kind of shitty and it just pretty much dies,. But the human in a tribe? Whoa. Now we're really talking. You know, now we're taking down holy mammoths. And now we're building weapons and technology. We are not a very impressive species and individual level".

Aaron Alexander is a movement expert. But in this conversation, we didn't talk about movement. We spoke about how Aaron has found a greater understanding of himself through interviewing his family, a darkness retreat, and therapy.
