The UNcivilized Podcast with Traver Boehm

No matter how many times you feel stagnant or hit bottom, remember that even in the desert, the flowers blossom. I'm not trying to sound poetic, but today's guest story reminds me of desert flowers blossoming amid the drought, in isolation, and under brutal circumstances. For this episode, Saora Love will join the conversation. She is a men's coach and what I find most fascinating about her is not only her desire to help others but her story of self-improvement. To put you in context, Saora experienced many difficult moments in her life from a young age, but none of them were as tough as the time she spent three years in prison in India for cannabis possession, leading her to miss her sister's wedding — the moment she understood the seriousness of her imprisonment. In this episode, you will hear not only Saora's story but also about healing, meditation, embodiment, and how we can start to be more present and aware of our bodies as men. ABOUT SAORA LOVE Saora Love is a mentor and guide for people who want more intimacy, cohesion and harmony in their lives. She is mostly focused on helping us all understand each other more, particularly from a standpoint of radical self responsibility. Saora often says she's been blessed to live a life of a lot of suffering. This has given her a lot of street cred and she has learnt to be able to navigate life with a lot of awareness. Because of this she is able to support others on their journey to wholeness, and is able to really see and understand the intricacies of what's really going on in people's lives. She works with women to help them understand themselves, and to specifically understand men more. She works with men to help them understand more of what's needed for embodiment and wholeness and to understand what women want. She gives powerful reflections from a deeply attuned feminine system.

The power to change is within you and depends on you. When we feel like we've hit rock bottom, sometimes, we wait and pray for a hand that comes to save us. However, even if they do, the greatest help will always come from us because we are the only ones who can heal our traumas, problems, and deep wounds. At the bottom, all we find is loneliness — it is just our mind and body. We are the only people we have to deal with daily. Therefore, we are responsible for keeping falling or starting to rise. In this episode, we'll be talking about change, loneliness, and overcoming with our guest George Bryant who leaves us with an impressive quote, "make yourself a home." ABOUT GEORGE BRYANT He has been homeless, bullied, abused, and in combat. George is a New York Times best-selling author, the 7-figure entrepreneur, the Crossfitter, the veteran with PTSD, the family man, the marketing guy, and now… he's home.
