George Kalantzis — From divorce to publishing your first book.

Healing has different paths to travel and reach it. Today’s guest, George Kalantzis, decided to record his experiences, pain, grief, and thoughts in a journal that led him to find new talent. A journal that became a book, reaching hundreds of people who thank him for changing their lives. This book tells a story of overcoming, where its author shares his battle with depression, addictions, and his divorce. There is something about writing that allows us to vent, express ourselves clearly, create a fantasy story that takes us away from our problems. As a writer and author, I can say that it is a healing experience that everyone should try. ABOUT GEORGE KALANTZIS.

Johnny King — Becoming a KING

If we think about the problem that men currently face in society, what would it be? According to Johnny King's opinion, he thinks of the unhealed wounds caused by parents, especially the father figure in our lives. After a year of coaching, he concluded that we must all begin to heal our wounds to enjoy a new life where peace, happiness, and balance rule our life and become the king of our kingdom. Johnny's story is interesting since after hating his father for many years, a confession changed everything and gave a 180-degree turn in their relationship, making him his best friend. A story that will make us understand that forgiveness is the best way to heal. About Johnny King Before Johnny King became a transformational coach for men to help them reach their highest potential, he first had to discover his own. Amidst the recession of 2010, Johnny was broke: $35,000 in debt, jobless, and picking up the pieces of a failed marriage. He thought he was done but, little did he know it was just the start of his journey. Over the next few years, Johnny built multiple successful businesses.  Now he leads a men's group and produces a podcast. King systemized his habits and routines to create a life he could fall in love with. He's now teaching others those tools so you can too own your day, realize your dreams, and truly become the King or Queen of your kingdom.

Dene Maria Sebastiana — How men’s work will blow your heart open.

It's okay to have feelings. It's okay to cry. The only thing that is not okay is to hide what you feel just because "men don't cry." We live in a society that taught men to be this stereotype of strong and dominant macho men. But, what does it mean to be a man? There is no single concept; there are millions, so do not cling to one. When starting his way through the man's work, today's guest Dene Maria Sebastiana discovered that he had a wound that he had never healed; a father wound. A life-changing initiation (according to Dene's words) led him to help men open their hearts, heal and live fully. Today you will hear this pleasant conversation where we will develop topics such as man work and everything related to it. We will touch on an important point, such as pain and why we should allow ourselves to feel it. ABOUT DENE MARIA SEBASTIANA (Dennis Mead-Shikaly) was born and raised in New York, and now lives in Tucson, AZ. He is a soul coach, teacher, facilitator, shaman, and leader emeritus. Dene works with people who truly desire an in-depth look at their lives, and who are willing to break through their old, unconsciously embedded patterns. The intention is to integrate, evolve, and live fully in these radically changing times. Dene brings deep caring and compassion along with a multi-level capacity to get to the heart of the matter. He believes that the alignment of head-heart-gut-sex/creativity will always lead to right action: clear, compassionate, effective. CONNECT WITH DENE Website: http://sunmooncoaching.com/ WHAT YOU WILL HEAR [2:25] Meet Dene. [5:03] An initiation that changed his life forever. [9:29] The inner work affects the outer life. [18:59] Toxic masculinity. [24:26] We need a cultural awakening. [29:17] Learning to distinguish feelings. [34:03] Two years of celibacy. [36:50] Man challenges before and after covid. [41:40] Why do we need more men's circles? [47:28] A hope placed on men.
