Nivek #45 | There Is Nothing Wrong With You.

We Long For Love Yet We Are Terrified Of It. Dissecting Reality & All Presumptive Realities. Question Everything. Presume Nothing. We Are Divine Beings. There Is Nothing Wrong With You.  How much am I looking at myself and functioning from a presumptive reality or preconditioned state? Why do I still perceive there is something wrong with me? In this transformative conversation, Nivek and I tackle one of the deepest false beliefs society has ingrained in us: the idea that we are not enough. From an early age, we’re conditioned—especially by capitalist systems—to believe we need constant improvement, always chasing something more. But the truth is, we are already magnificent, divine beings. There is nothing wrong with us. 

Recorded after six immersive days together, this episode offers a fresh lens to view reality—exploring concepts like Access Consciousness; a set of tools and techniques that help clear mental, emotional, and energetic blocks, fostering greater awareness, false belief systems, and even the stories we tell ourselves about money and war.
We unravel the mental constructs around love, worthiness, money, and societal conditioning that keep us stuck. Nivek, a *misfit and unpredictable genius*, shares from his life experience and offers powerful insights into how we can break free from these limiting beliefs and reconnect with our inherent divinity.
The self-development industry, built largely on the belief that we are not enough, was valued at over **$40 billion globally** in 2021. By 2030, it's projected to grow to **$67 billion**—proving how deeply rooted this narrative is in society. But through this episode, we’re challenging that notion and offering new ways to reconnect with who we truly are.
Ready to let go of the idea that you need to be “fixed”? Kevin (Nivek): Biohacker; described as a…Misfit, Unpredictable and Genius.Since a young age he knew that there must be more to life than the concepts and drama that this reality is structured upon. His innate sense of wonder and rebellion lead him through a meandering path of self rediscovery. The past 15 years he has been facilitating Sound & other modalities, in a particular framing that has unfolded through his own experiences of healing and restoration. Having assisted and studied in entheogen’s, meditation, self inquiry shamanism and countless other modalities and practices, he currently focuses on facilitating a simple, effective Sound Journey that can bring spaciousness and lightness from which the healing can be initiated.
