Now, on the other side of my tunnel phase, I felt the call to share my experience from this season and what it felt like within my relationship to self and those closest to me, the ways I tried so hard to escape it all, and what ultimately allowed for me to sink into the messages that I was meant to tune into.

He stands by the belief that signs and symptoms are the body’s way of balancing and healing itself; so at what point do we need to resist interfering with the body's intelligence when it comes to healing, and focus on creating an empowering environment for it to do so?

We unpack the intricacies of our emotions and pain and how they act as our body’s communication system; signaling with a subtle cue or with an abrupt wake up call; oftentimes the latter, due to dismissing the wisdom of our own body. In our current society, these signals can be numbed or suppressed by our addiction to consume – alcohol, netflix, social media, food – but if we can learn to feel the extent of our hurt, receive the gifts and lessons, and realign with our body… we make room for long term fulfillment.

We were told that if we look a certain way, act a certain way, and follow the “right” path, that we would get everything: a 40-year career, a nice car, and enough 0’s at the end of our paycheck. But, along the way, you discovered that, perhaps, that isn’t what you wanted, that isn’t what makes you feel whole, that isn’t what makes you feel fulfilled. So it’s time to start asking questions and unlearning the BS that we were fed growing up. I’m excited to embark on this journey with all of you. It’s difficult to navigate these choppy waters alone — to unlearn all the ideas we took for granted — but, if we can lean on each other for support, I know we can all learn how to actually be the best version of ourselves.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedIn this podcast, I took the opportunity to highlight a side of JP that is often overlooked. He isn't just an accomplished comedian, but an incredibly sincere and thoughtful person who has leveraged comedy to understand and examine his internal struggle. In his own words, "In the past I used humor to escape myself. Now I use humor to go into myself." In the same way that JP used his challenges as a young man to hone his gift, we examine the opportunity that COVID-19 has presented for men to pause and contemplate their role as a husband, father, provider, and brother. We each have the opportunity to use the current situation as a means to press pause and consider how we want to move forward through this set of challenging circumstances.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedPoranguí is one of those guys who has been instrumental in the changes that I’ve felt in my life. He’s a man in true alignment, and when you spend enough time with someone like that, you understand when you’re out of alignment and what a true path looks like for you. When I met him, I did whatever I could to spend time with him — I went to his retreats, I participated in his sound healings, I went to his live performances — and then I was invited on these tribal men’s retreats in Sedona that changed my life. Being surrounded by men that show up masculine but are deeply in touch with their feminine is what this podcast is all about. Poranguí was raised among three distinct cultures — Brazil, Mexico, and the United States. Both of his parents were musicians and artists who passed much of that along to him. He thought he was going to be a doctor, but when he got there, he saw that the traditional model of healing and medicine is so broken. It was then that he pivoted to studying neurology and discovering the research behind what he had already identified: That music and art and movement are healing. We Discuss: 10:40 - Poranguí’s background & upbringing 14:46 - Understanding how art, music, and sound create healing 22:41 - Being called to serve 28:49 - Creating your own future 31:24 - Making music and coming together with all generations as a community 38:24 - Breaking down channeling and how to quiet your monkey mind 48:04 - Clearing stagnation through movement 54:33 - Living in a world of gradients 59:59 - How to become more embodied 01:07:16 - Unpacking sweat lodges 01:11:45 - Tapping into the beginner’s mindset Resources: Music Is Medicine: http://www.musicismedicine.me (http://www.musicismedicine.me) Sun Dance ceremony: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Dance (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Dance) Connect with Poranguí: Website | http://www.porangui.com (http://www.porangui.com) Instagram | http://www.instagram.com/porangui (http://www.instagram.com/porangui) Facebook | http://www.facebook.com/porangui (http://www.facebook.com/porangui) YouTube | http://www.youtube.com/porangui (http://www.youtube.com/porangui) Spotify | bit.ly/poranguispotify (http://bit.ly/poranguispotify) Soundcloud | http://www.soundcloud.com/porangui (http://www.soundcloud.com/porangui) Connect with Cal: Website | https://www.thegreatunlearn.com (https://www.thegreatunlearn.com) Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/bunkercal/ (https://www.instagram.com/bunkercal/) Twitter | https://twitter.com/BunkerCal (https://twitter.com/BunkerCal) Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/BunkerCal (https://www.facebook.com/BunkerCal) YouTube | The Great Unlearn (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCneI0an6qiL7t-7sne9TjhQ) Subscribe to the Great Unlearn Podcast: Apple Podcasts | https://apple.co/3a4ATpc (https://apple.co/3a4ATpc) Spotify | https://spoti.fi/2Rb7emv (https://spoti.fi/2Rb7emv) Google Play | http://bit.ly/2sehHUE (http://bit.ly/2sehHUE) Stitcher | http://bit.ly/2t8wHE6 (http://bit.ly/2t8wHE6) If you are called to support the podcast, please share the show with a friend!!!

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedDave Regula is one of my best friends. We worked together in Chicago for over 15 years and have known each other for over 20. So, let’s take a step back to the turn of the century. In 1998, everyone was into investment banking, and the best place to do that was in New York. Wanting to swim against the current and do his own thing, though, Dave moved to Chicago and dove head-first into the financial industry. But then, one day, Dave realized he was feeling stuck as a human being. He wasn’t feeling as advanced as he would have liked in his personal life — fulfillment, education, relationships, nutrition — and the more he started looking into that, he knew he had to cut ties with his old life. Dave opened a gym and dove deep into fitness. However, once that was in place, he realized there was a bigger picture. Health changes weren’t sticking, people’s experiences weren’t ramping up with their health, and they weren’t living lives they were proud of. And that’s where his direction in life came into focus — helping people through all aspects of their life and build upon one another to achieve fulfillment. We Discuss: 04:13 - Not knowing what to do with your life 07:52 - When you know you have to make a change 14:41 - Bouncing back from a rock-bottom moment 23:48 - The part ego plays in your life 31:21 - Moving beyond fitness and expanding 35:49 - Finding the support you need 41:12 - Making the decision to go to the Olympics as a parent 50:24 - Trying to keep up your life without your partner 56:11 - Admitting when things are hard 01:05:12 - How Dave lives his life today 01:09:32 - Wanting to feel more than just happy 01:17:38 - Connection is the most important thing 01:19:29 - Sharing your thoughts with those closest to you Connect with Dave Regula: Website | https://www.trakathletics.com (https://trakathletics.com/) Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/daveregula (https://www.instagram.com/daveregula) Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/dave.regula.1 (https://www.facebook.com/dave.regula.1) Connect with Cal: Website | https://www.thegreatunlearn.com (https://www.thegreatunlearn.com/) Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/bunkercal/ (https://www.instagram.com/bunkercal/) Twitter | https://twitter.com/BunkerCal (https://twitter.com/BunkerCal) Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/BunkerCal (https://www.facebook.com/BunkerCal) YouTube | The Great Unlearn (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCneI0an6qiL7t-7sne9TjhQ) Subscribe to the Great Unlearn Podcast: Apple Podcasts | https://apple.co/3a4ATpc (https://apple.co/3a4ATpc) Spotify | https://spoti.fi/2Rb7emv (https://spoti.fi/2Rb7emv) Google Play | http://bit.ly/2sehHUE (http://bit.ly/2sehHUE) Stitcher | http://bit.ly/2t8wHE6 (http://bit.ly/2t8wHE6) If you are called to support the podcast, please share the show with a friend!!!

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedYou probably know who Lance Armstrong is, but this is Lance as you’ve never seen him before — with his kimono wide open. We are always trying to figure out what we’ve done right, what we’ve done wrong, and how we can move forward. Today, Lance gives a candid take on what he did in the past and how he can move forward in a different way. It’s an incredible redemption story that’s up there with the best of them. Lance’s first podcast was called The Move (https://wedu.team/themove) , which jumped to the top of Apple’s podcast charts as soon as it came out. Lance sees what happened to him — and because of him — as a result of being ruthless and mean. Nobody would have seen him coming back in the way he has, but he had to keep moving forward. There was no plan in place. He just kept taking one more step. He made a lot of mistakes, but he looked inside himself to what was true — his love for the sport, his family, his friends — and began rebuilding his life on top of that foundation. You can’t continue to measure yourself against the past, but you can continue to move forward and create something new — maybe even something better. We Discuss: 10:10 - How Lance got into endurance sports 19:39 - The challenges of going from an individual sport to a team sport 23:22 - Constantly moving forward in life. 26:31 - Letting go of bitterness and anger 37:44 - Lance’s philosophy for advertising 44:05 - Lance’s future business endeavors 52:34 - What it feels like to retire 58:34 - The life lessons Lance wants to pass on to his kids 1:07:08 - Parenting as someone who has reached a high level 1:16:30 - Trying not to measure yourself against your past Resources: The Forward Podcast: wedu.team/the-forward (https://wedu.team/the-forward) The Move Podcast: wedu.team/themove (https://wedu.team/themove) Sign up for my weekly newsletter: thegreatunlearn.com/newsletter (https://www.thegreatunlearn.com/newsletter) Next Ventures (https://nextventures.com) The Lion Tracker’s Guide to Life (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07LC9C7Q4?pf_rd_p=ab873d20-a0ca-439b-ac45-cd78f07a84d8&pf_rd_r=6F8T6S5B1GYMVYDFMJ4F) by Boyd Varty Ed Ruscha (https://edruscha.com/featured-works/) AMP Human (https://amphuman.com) Power Dot (https://www.powerdot.com) Jesse Itzler (https://jesseitzler.com) Connect with Lance Armstrong: Website | lancearmstrong.com (https://lancearmstrong.com/) Instagram | instagram.com/lancearmstrong/ (https://www.instagram.com/lancearmstrong/) Twitter | twitter.com/lancearmstrong (https://twitter.com/lancearmstrong) Facebook | facebook.com/lancearmstrong (https://www.facebook.com/lancearmstrong/) Connect with Cal: Website | https://www.thegreatunlearn.com (https://www.thegreatunlearn.com) Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/bunkercal/ (https://www.instagram.com/bunkercal/) Twitter | https://twitter.com/BunkerCal (https://twitter.com/BunkerCal) Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/BunkerCal (https://www.facebook.com/BunkerCal) YouTube | The Great Unlearn (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCneI0an6qiL7t-7sne9TjhQ) Subscribe to the Great Unlearn Podcast: Apple Podcasts | https://apple.co/3a4ATpc (https://apple.co/3a4ATpc) Spotify | https://spoti.fi/2Rb7emv (https://spoti.fi/2Rb7emv) Google Play | http://bit.ly/2sehHUE (http://bit.ly/2sehHUE) Stitcher | http://bit.ly/2t8wHE6 (http://bit.ly/2t8wHE6) If you are called to support the podcast, please share the show with a friend!!!

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedI’ve known Laura Coe for over 20 years, but we hadn’t really connected since our 20s before she reached out to me a couple of years ago. It was initially for some advice, but Laura actually ended up catalyzing some huge shifts in my life — a wonderful conversation on her show The Art of Authenticity (https://lauracoe.com/cal-callihan/) helped me realize I love making podcasts and her support as a coach helped me overcome the self-doubt I was struggling with as I tried to uplevel my life and unlearn the programming that was holding me back. Laura is also the author of Emotional Obesity: A Philosophical Guide to Lighten Your Life (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00QXXFUKS) and, as both as an author and as a coach, she helps others understand esoteric philosophical ideas and ancient wisdom so that they anyone can apply these important (but often linguistically obscure) lessons to their own lives. One of the ancient tools she uses is the Akashic records and, if you haven’t heard of this before, you’re in for a treat in this episode — it’s fascinating, and it ties into why Laura reached out to me in the first place. We Discuss: 06:15 - A story about 20-year-old Cal 10:20 - Recognizing that surrender isn’t always a bad thing 14:20 - Sitting in stillness to learn about yourself 18:30 - How society causes us to internalize certain ideas about our identity and self 28:40 - We’re here for lessons 30:45 - The Akashic records 40:35 - How we’re all being sold fake truths and solutions online 47:05 - When we look to others for models for success, is it coming from fear and lack or is it coming from a place of interest in knowledge? 54:00 - Accepting that there is no end goal to spiritual or personal growth that you can achieve in one human lifetime Resources: Listen to my interview on Laura’s show: “Cal Callihan: Wall Street to Spiritual Warrior” (https://lauracoe.com/cal-callihan/) Read: Emotional Obesity: A Philosophical Guide to Lighten Your Life (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00QXXFUKS) Sign up for my monthly newsletter: thegreatunlearn.com/newsletter (https://www.thegreatunlearn.com/newsletter) The Mastery of Love (https://www.amazon.com/Mastery-Love-Practical-Relationship-Toltec/dp/1878424424/ref=pd_sbs_14_3/147-8053530-7502953?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=1878424424&pd_rd_r=13795026-de79-4bed-bf6c-1478475ad62c&pd_rd_w=QwD3n&pd_rd_wg=1mMdO&pf_rd_p=7cd8f929-4345-4bf2-a554-7d7588b3dd5f&pf_rd_r=HNM0QKV9Z8FTSQ0MA6XM&psc=1&refRID=HNM0QKV9Z8FTSQ0MA6XM) by Don Miguel Ruiz The Mastery of Self (https://www.amazon.com/Mastery-Self-Toltec-Personal-Freedom/dp/1938289692/ref=pd_sbs_14_4/147-8053530-7502953?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=1938289692&pd_rd_r=13795026-de79-4bed-bf6c-1478475ad62c&pd_rd_w=QwD3n&pd_rd_wg=1mMdO&pf_rd_p=7cd8f929-4345-4bf2-a554-7d7588b3dd5f&pf_rd_r=HNM0QKV9Z8FTSQ0MA6XM&psc=1&refRID=HNM0QKV9Z8FTSQ0MA6XM) by Don Miguel Ruiz Connect with Laura Coe: Website | lauracoe.com (http://lauracoe.com/) Instagram | www.instagram.com/laurascoe (https://www.instagram.com/laurascoe/) Twitter | twitter.com/laurascoe (https://twitter.com/laurascoe) Facebook | www.facebook.com/emotionalobesity (https://www.facebook.com/emotionalobesity) Connect with Cal: Website | https://www.thegreatunlearn.com (https://www.thegreatunlearn.com/) Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/bunkercal/ (https://www.instagram.com/bunkercal/) Twitter | https://twitter.com/BunkerCal (https://twitter.com/BunkerCal) Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/BunkerCal (https://www.facebook.com/BunkerCal) YouTube | The Great Unlearn (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCneI0an6qiL7t-7sne9TjhQ) Subscribe to the Great Unlearn Podcast: Apple Podcasts | https://apple.co/3a4ATpc (https://apple.co/3a4ATpc) Spotify | https://spoti.fi/2Rb7emv (https://spoti.fi/2Rb7emv)…

1 Mat Fisher | Learning to Be On Purpose 1:17:29
1:17:29 Play Later Play Later Lists Like Liked1:17:29
Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedI first met Mat Fisher when I was seeking out a mentor to train me in TRE, or Trauma Release Exercises. Created by Dr. David Berceli, TRE is a simple yet innovative series of exercises that assist the body in releasing deep muscular patterns of stress, tension, and trauma. That may seem like a weird concept — and it was to me when I first heard of it — but I experienced the benefits of these exercises first-hand so I wanted to learn more about it. The funny thing is, when I first reached out to Mat, I didn’t hear anything back. I started to make all of these assumptions and judgments about why, but as it turned out, he just wasn’t coaching anymore and didn’t check that email address. (You know what they say about assumptions, right?) However, when he eventually saw it, something in my email shifted Mat; he felt called to dust off the gym shorts and the whistle to coach me. And I couldn’t be more grateful. Fast forward to today, Mat is one of my most trusted brothers. In this conversation, you will get a glimpse at the depth of character and the quality of inquiry that Mat wields. Having these types of conversations with Mat definitely helped catalyze the Great Unlearning journey I’m on today. He has a unique way of asking questions and framing the world, and if you really take a moment to consider the questions he asks and do some of that inner work with us, those small internal shifts can really make a huge difference in the way you approach life. We Discuss: 04:30 - Why the exercise community is like the trunk of a tree 10:00 - Learning to show up as the person who I want to be (and not the person who I think I’m supposed to be) 14:55 - Why did I build such a strong suit of emotional armor when I was younger? 18:30 - Owning the fear 25:10 - Creating the software of your own operating system 30:10 - Being empathetic and understanding as a parent 39:45 - What happens when you’re on a pedestal 49:15 - Being on purpose 53:50 - Embodying both masculine and feminine energy 56:30 - A different view on trauma and history 01:08:30 - Learning from your triggers (and not quieting them) Resources: The Four Agreements: www.thefouragreements.com (http://www.thefouragreements.com/) Trauma Releasing Exercises: traumaprevention.com (http://traumaprevention.com/) Mankind Project: mankindproject.org (http://mankindproject.org/) Adyashanti 5-day silent retreat: www.adyashanti.org/programs/retreats-experience (https://www.adyashanti.org/programs/retreats-experience) Connect with Cal: Website | https://www.thegreatunlearn.com (https://www.thegreatunlearn.com/) Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/bunkercal/ (https://www.instagram.com/bunkercal/) Twitter | https://twitter.com/BunkerCal (https://twitter.com/BunkerCal) Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/BunkerCal (https://www.facebook.com/BunkerCal) YouTube | The Great Unlearn (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCneI0an6qiL7t-7sne9TjhQ) Subscribe to the Great Unlearn Podcast: Apple Podcasts | https://apple.co/3a4ATpc (https://apple.co/3a4ATpc) Spotify | https://spoti.fi/2Rb7emv (https://spoti.fi/2Rb7emv) Google Play | http://bit.ly/2sehHUE (http://bit.ly/2sehHUE) Stitcher | http://bit.ly/2t8wHE6 (http://bit.ly/2t8wHE6) If you are called to support the podcast, please share the show with a friend!!!

In addition to being a TV personality, Bill is an accomplished author, popular speaker, and serial entrepreneur — but the reason I brought him onto the show is that he’s a great friend. Our relationship quickly developed from casual acquaintance to bonafide bromance because Bill is one of those guys who can get real, who is willing to share the things that are most challenging to him in an effort to move through them and grow.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedLauren Bay-Regula is a mother of three, a business owner, and a two-time Olympian who is currently training for her third Olympic appearance on the Canadian softball team. She and her husband, Dave Regula, have experienced the difficulty of maintaining your body, your mind, your business, and your family all at the same time. You don’t want any of those plates to drop, but it’s a struggle keeping them all in the air at the same time. And things didn’t always go well. There were some dark years in there, and depression put up one hell of a fight. But because they had each other — and because they were willing to put aside their egos and ask for help — both Lauren and Dave are still spinning those plates and crushing every aspect of their lives. We often put Olympic athletes up on a pedestal, like their lives are somehow different than ours. But Lauren reminds us that being an Olympian, being a parent, being a business owner — it’s all hard, it’s all worth doing, and we often don’t give ourselves enough credit for making it through some tough shit. We Discuss: 00:02:30 - The parents who taught Lauren that sports are play 00:05:30 - Why “you want to be an athlete, you don’t want to be a softball player or basketball player,” and how parents are pushing their children to play sports in potentially unhealthy ways 00:13:05 - Life as an Olympic softball player + meeting her husband 00:15:25 - Coming out of retirement to pitch in the world championships as a 35-year-old mother of three 0016:30 - Lauren walked away from softball and didn’t play for eight years — so why did she decide to come back? 00:20:00 - How a difficult move led to the lowest point of Lauren and Dave’s life together 00:25:40 - Making it through seven long years of postpartum depression 00:30:50 - The part of depression that we almost never hear about 00:39:00 - The unreasonable expectation that mothers should have motherhood all figured out 00:43:10 - Letting go of the past to live in the present 00:53:00 - Going back to the Olympics for the 3rd time 00:59:30 - Actively working on your relationship and being willing to have conversations that suck 01:08:00 - What and who are driving Lauren and Dave to keep going 01:14:10 - “When you criticize your children, they don’t stop loving you — they stop loving themselves.” 01:16:25 - Strong Mom Strong Family 01:27:00 - The importance of finding your tribe Resources: Join Lauren’s FB Group: Strong Mom Strong Family (https://www.facebook.com/groups/193749661226193/) Download the Strong Mom Strong Family Free Guide (https://jointrakathletics.com/secrets-of-a-strong-mom36004348) Finding Mastery Podcast (https://findingmastery.net/category/podcasts/) Connect with Lauren Bay-Regula: Website | trakathletics.com (https://trakathletics.com/) Instagram | instagram.com/laurenregula (https://www.instagram.com/laurenregula/) Facebook | facebook.com/people/Lauren-Bay-Regula/100008001136700 (https://www.facebook.com/people/Lauren-Bay-Regula/100008001136700) Connect with Cal: Website | https://www.thegreatunlearn.com (https://www.thegreatunlearn.com/) Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/bunkercal/ (https://www.instagram.com/bunkercal/) Twitter | https://twitter.com/BunkerCal (https://twitter.com/BunkerCal) Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/BunkerCal (https://www.facebook.com/BunkerCal) YouTube | The Great Unlearn (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCneI0an6qiL7t-7sne9TjhQ) Subscribe to the Great Unlearn Podcast: Apple Podcasts | https://apple.co/3a4ATpc (https://apple.co/3a4ATpc) Spotify | https://spoti.fi/2Rb7emv (https://spoti.fi/2Rb7emv) Google Play | http://bit.ly/2sehHUE (http://bit.ly/2sehHUE) Stitcher | http://bit.ly/2t8wHE6 (http://bit.ly/2t8wHE6) If you are called to support the podcast, please share the show with a...…

His desk is a smorgasbord of cutting edge supplements, esoteric equipment, manuals on biohacking, and texts on spiritual development, and he devotes his time to taking in as much information as possible so that he can apply and test that knowledge on himself. And when Kyle talks about optimization, he isn’t just talking about fine-tuning your body — although, damn, you should look at this guy — he’s also talking about the mental, emotional, and spiritual work that we have to do if we want to live better.

The Great Unlearn
My intention with this episode is to introduce myself — formally Jon Callahan, but known to most as Cal — and share the capital-W Why behind starting The Great Unlearn. I originally wrote a script for this, but as I was reading it, I just wasn’t sure if that was the right way to introduce the real me. So I asked some friends for their advice — shout out to Carrie Doll and Dave Regula for the assist — and they came through big time. And that’s really a big part of what I want people to get out of this show: we’ve been taught that high achievers should buckle down, muscle through, and try to do everything alone, but that’s BS advice. The people who really accomplish a lot, the people who really change lives, know when to ask for help — and I want my show to be a source for advice and stories that will help us all on this journey to becoming the best versions of ourselves. More than that, the people who really live fulfilling lives don’t do what they were told they should do. They dive deep, interrogate themselves, and figure that shit out themselves. I’m still early in this journey, but I hope you’ll walk it alongside me. There will be tears (there might already be a few in this episode) but I know that we’ll be able to walk farther together. We Discuss: 00:05:30 - The catalyst for my awakening: the mass shooting on October 1st, 2017 00:10:50 - Asking yourself, for the first time, “Why the fuck am I here?” 00:11:45 - Unlearning the lies and unspoken agreements that were drilled into us as kids, from our parents and society as a whole 00:18:00 - The Great Unlearn isn’t about throwing away everything we learned — it’s about questioning them, maybe for the first time, and deciding whether or not those agreements serve us 00:20:00 - The idea of “Working In” (as opposed to Working Out) 00:22:00 - Why I chose The Great Unlearn as the title for this show 00:25:30 - Maximization Vs. Optimization 00:34:40 - My favorite quote: “Comparison is the thief of joy.” 00:48:50 - A text from a friend that rocks me to my core (in a good way) every time I read it 00:54:30 - Only speaking from direct experience 00:59:05 - “Knowing is not enough; we must apply.

Matt and I have quite parallel journeys as we both drifted from “successful” corporate America and found ourselves on the path of healing our core wounds; much through psychedelics. Amongst many other topics, Matt uniquely brings forth a pivotal calling around the importance of healing the trauma of our war veterans. With findings that a vast majority of those who enlist in war have experienced similar childhood trauma, a lack of tribe and often have difficulty connecting on a deep level. In this episode, Matt and I explore... → Integration strategies: journaling, raw ceremonial cacao, micro-dosing. → How trauma interferes with our ability to connect authentically and meaningfully. → The veteran suicide epidemic & the need for effective healing of trauma in our veteran community. → Breaking through the prisons that we put our mind and heart in. → Most of the ways in which we filter our experiences is from our childhood trauma.

You may have heard me use this term a few times (or ten) to express going within ourselves to rediscover our innate self-love; to better understand who we are and why we show up the way we do; to shine a light on our shadows and make peace with those darker places within. Well, today’s guest is where the concept of “working in” all originated.

I’ll admit, today’s episode with Kyle certainly has aspects to it that I would have brushed under the rug had I heard this a few years ago. Some topics that we discuss are not of popular narrative; such as the ones we’re conditioned to trust and believe from the media, big pharma, or the government, to name a few. Regardless of what you may or may not believe, I think you’ll truly enjoy Kyle’s compelling way of bringing about some controversial topics, backed by his intellect and desire to purely educate starting within himself. In this episode, Kyle and I discuss a multitude of topics, some being... → Surrendering as a form of releasing fear vs giving up. → Why Cancel Culture is a modern form of vengeance. → Ways that we can change the current narratives by reclaiming personal responsibility. → How the core wound of humanity is that of disconnection from one another. → The stages of anger: rage vs unclean anger vs clean anger. → And more!

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedLast year I attended Adyashanti's 5 day silent retreat, which is similar to a Vipassana retreat. Vipassana means “to see things as they really are.” I took a vow of noble silence and practiced deep stillness each day. I soon began to feel and experience many of the things that have ALWAYS been surrounding and supporting me. It was a life-changing experience. During this quarantine season, I felt it was an opportune time to revisit the magic I experienced back then and do my very first Dieta. For 4 1/2 days, I unplugged from technology, focused on a more plant-based diet, settled into my journaling practice, communed with my altar and most importantly, spent intentional time with nature. My intention was to attune to my being and the essence of allowing/surrendering by connecting with the divine feminine that is nature. Again, magical experience. And one I took this episode of the podcast to tell you more about in hopes that you may find unique ways to introduce more silence and surrender into your experience of life! In this episode, I share... → The constant work that is simply, surrendering. → Why sometimes it’s best to “weed the garden” vs implementing new practices. → How doing a Dieta and unplugging allowed me to tune into the gifts that surround me daily. → The importance of getting clear on our intentions with all things in life. → Surrendering and accepting our experiences vs letting our ego drive our experience.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedFan favorite lion tracker, Boyd Varty, is back with us and diving into the “art” of suffering – a self-inflicted phenomenon. It’s safe to say that we’ve all suffered one time or another, but oftentimes people remain in the drama-filled stories that they, themselves, have created. I know I have. With this, the suffering doesn't end... it only replicates. In this episode, Boyd breaks down a few of his own stories of suffering and his discoveries from the untrue stories that he placed atop the kind reality. Boyd and I explore... → The beauty and kindness of the contemplative mind. → Undoing the desire to fix situations. → Finding clarity once removing the story of drama. → How to align with the reality of what is unfolding. → How to acknowledge and shorten the period of suffering.

While on the path to recovery, Mike found himself reevaluating all that he had once given his energy to and the physical + mental pitfalls of constantly chasing accomplishment.

Even while surviving many uncertain and life-threatening encounters while growing up on the Londolozi Game Reserve in South Africa, he holds that his truest challenge was that of discovering purpose — something he now helps people do all over the world. In this episode, Boyd shares about his recent experience of 40 days and 40 nights in the South African wilderness alone. Like most of us, this pandemic put him in a space that he wanted to resist and brought feelings of uncertainty. but once he embraced the season for what it is, he headed out into the wild and found rich meaning through clarity and stillness. During this conversation Boyd and I discuss... How nature allows stillness, connection to Spirit, and the feeling of pure being. How being in ceremony shows us where we are living based on others programming and allows us to develop our own. Tapping into nature's intelligence reminds us of our own deep knowing.
