Ep 128 - Nate Feathers | Fatherhood
Nate Feathers is a father of five dedicated to living as the example to his children, knowing they will do what he does immensely more than what he says.
He found his passion helping men be fierce and loving fathers who have the warrior mindset outside the house with the gentle spirit of careful gardeners inside the home.
In this episode we have a broad discussion about what it means to be a father, we reflect on our own upbringing and dive deep into how we can consciously shift our default setting to raise more connected, attuned, empathetic, respectful and responsible children.

Ep 127 - John Kai Herbert | The Body as the Shadow
John Kai Herbert’s specialities include Characterology, Body Psychotherapy and Intuitive Listening. With knowledge that reaches from Transhumanism to Psychodynamics, to Attachment Theory to Gene Keys and the Occult.
In this episode we extrapolate in great detail the relationship between the body and the shadow — an understanding that originated from the great body-psychotherapist Wilhelm Reich.
We touch to the core of what it means to be an expanded human being with awareness ranging from our lower, carnal self instincts to our higher, more evolved states of being.
A must listen for anyone interested in accessing more of their innate potential and life-force.

Side Chat #10: The Symbology of Letters with Pete Maglio
Pete Maglio is a former advertising executive and startup founder that credits having a spiritual experience as being a major catalyst in his life, shattering his previously held notions of reality and causing him to embark on a journey of discovery.
Over the course of several years, he witnessed a radical evolution of his perception. This steady increase in awareness unveiled the inherent symbolism conveyed by the visual design of our letters, freeing his mind from the distortion created by phonetics and uncovering the perceived "truth" of the words we speak.
In this conversation, Pete shares a bit about his life-changing experience and provides an introduction into his interpretation of the symbology of letters and the language we use to communicate.

Ep 124 - John Paul Rice | Staying Human & Reclaiming the Inner Child
In this episode film producer and wisdom keeper John Paul Rice returns to share his latest insights on our dire need to reconnect with our inner child and our childhood memories as a key solution to deprogramming from the hyper-sexualised, technological, materialist world stage we see ramping up all around us.
We dialogue on how the approval of an increasingly narcissistic world is directly correlated to child abuse and trauma.

Ep 122 - Dr. Melissa Sell | GNM: Sexuality, Identity & Biology
Dr. Melissa Sell returns for the 4th time to continue our exploration of German New Medicine, the paradigm-shattering work and research of the late German MD Dr. Ryke Geerd Hamer.
We take a deeper and more nuanced look through a GNM lens at how “biological conflicts” cause natural adaptations that can impact sexual orientation and gender identity along with other behavioral constellations that influence the development of an individual’s personality.
If you aren’t familiar with German New Medicine, we suggest you also watch our previous episodes with Dr. Sell.
