We kick of this series with none other than Chris Assaad, the co-creator who orginated this idea for the new series. We shall be going through his whole album obver the coming months. He also sat with me on Simon Transparently podcast so jump onto that great conversation to. "Lion is a song about the lion within each of us. Its message and invitation is to overcome our fears and find the courage to follow our true calling and the path less travelled, as opposed to the one we are often prescribed by others. Its medicine is amplified courage and the power to find our true roar, to express it boldly and to let it be heard by those who need it."

Ian Mackenzie #7 | Fatherhood, Love, Sexuality, and The Collapse of Village

Death Phobia As A Sympton Of A Loss Of Real Culture. How Did Things Get As They Are? Has The World Always Been Crazy? What is the point of humans? What is true culture, what is true village? I can do almost anything, but I cant do everything; Fatherhood, Love, Sexuality, and partnership. Im Looking at the same calamity from a differnet angle. Where do you want to be and who do you want to be with? The current economic system enforces greed and scarcity. Death phobia as a sympton of a loss of real culture. Modern culture thinks its sexuality liberated but its not. We speak on Tamera in Portugal; a community dedicated to truth and love.

DarPan #6 | Awakening Into A New Vision For Humanity

The World Is Changing At Such A Rapid Rate, It may Soon Be Unrecognisable To Most Of Us Alive Today. I am not sure I have had as much energy moving through me in one conversation as this one. I had been listenting to DarPans voice for several years through his audio transmission called "Metamorphosis, something deep within life is changing." and then his latest one in 2019 called "A New Vision, we live in extraordinary times." both these transmissions have been core anchors for me to navigate through the global awakening that has been my reality for the past 12 years and its currently at a very key stage in the evolution of humanity. I thoroughly recommend diving into these and reading the transcripts I have shared on the links above. Darpan weaves 30 years of experience in music, healing, and the shamanic arts to create a unique transmission that inspires, enlivens and transforms. Bringing people together to create an unambiguous experience of our common Source is the intention, which inspires his work. A skillful blend of ceremony, song, meditation and celebration are the means by which he achieves the goal. A singer, multi-instrumentalist and neo-shaman and a living synthesis of his teachings DarPan is an inspirational speaker and gifted musician. He spent several years studying the art of meditation in India with the enlightened mystic Osho, and later lived and worked with various shamans and healers in Brazil, Ecuador and Peru. He is also deeply influenced by Tibetan Bhuddist and Taoist philosophy. More from DarPan; and on Soundcloud  Living In The GiftAll podcasts are given in the spirit of the Gift Economy.

Philip Shepherd #5 | Radical Wholeness And Divine Play

Play Is The One Activity In Which The Whole Personality Is Present. The Opposite Of Play Is Compliance. When there is no wholeness, there cannot be response. If you are looking for safety you will comply. The only way to connect to reality is to surrender to the wholeness. Philip Shepherd is recognized as an international authority on embodiment. His unique techniques have been developed to transform our disconnected experience of self and world, and are based on the vision articulated in his celebrated books, New Self, New World (2010) and Radical Wholeness (Nov 2017). He developed the practices of TEPP to help people reunite the thinking of the head with the deep, present and calm intelligence of the body. Ultimately, TEPP is about coming home to yourself.

Jeff Brown #3 | Exchange Righteousness For Humanness, Judgments For Compassion

If You Want To Live A More Spiritual Life, Live A More Human Life. Be More Truly, Fiercely, Heartfully Human. I invited Jeff onto this new series of conversations because he had sent me a copy of his latest book 'Grounded Spirituality' I wanted to dive in with him a little more and share with you all. "In Grounded Spirituality, Jeff lays down the tracks for an embodied way of being—one that leaves us ‘enrealed,’ integrated, and purposeful. Not awakened—but awakening. Not transcending our humanness—but finding meaning and spirituality within it, right in the heart of our imperfect daily lives. At long last, we can lay down our weary heads, burdened by the impossibility of transcending our human experience. Back to our roots, back into our bodies, back into all that makes us magnificently human." More from Jeff Brown Living In The GiftAll podcasts are given in the spirit of the Gift Economy.

Charles Eisenstein #2 | Awareness Of The Tragedies Unfolding Keeps Me Honest

Charles Eisenstein Author & Philosopher is one of the most important voices in the world today. This is another powerful conversation that flows spontaneously. I cherish sharing conversations with Charles. Since our first conversation back in 2012, we have shared many more and he has been a constant inspiration to me. In this dance we cover the topics;
* Reframing drama and being a young species * Learning from our assumptions and judgement* Flag your assumptions, what are they pointing to, where are they coming from? * Power of Intention * Healing societies * Beliefs as symptoms rather than causes, symptoms of a set of conditions * Awareness of the tragedies unfolding keeps me honest * Trauma And; * Near the end of the conversation I ask Charles to speak a little on his groundbreaking new book 'Climate' where he is Flipping the script on climate change, Eisenstein makes a case for a wholesale reimagining of the framing, tactics, and goals we employ in our journey to heal from ecological destruction. With research and insight, Charles Eisenstein details how the quantification of the natural world leads to a lack of integration and our “fight” mentality. Charles Eisenstein is one of the most important voices in the world today. A teacher, speaker, philosopher and author focusing on themes of civilization, consciousness, money, and human cultural evolution. He is the author of Sacred Economics & The More Beautiful World Our Hearts Know Is Possible and more from Charles here; Charles Eisenstein
