This week’s show is with Daniel Fox. Daniel is an expert in relationships and dating and has combined his skills as an Author, Researcher, and Coach to help individuals achieve better experiences in these areas. He is the author of the book "The Altitude Code," which provides valuable insights into adult values development and leadership. In his role as a Dating and Relationship coach, Daniel helps women tap into their inner radiance and men rediscover the joy of loving service. He is an advocate for the power of polarity in relationships.

In this show, Daniel and Lian dived deep and geeked out on intimacy, polarity and relationships… referencing Deida’s three stages of relationships, Daniel’s own seeing and articulation of these stages, archetypes and much more!

I’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation…  please leave a comment below.

What you’ll learn from this episode:

• Deida’s three stages are Dependance, 50/50 and Intimate Communion. Daniel was speaking about similar stages as Tyranny, Anarchy and Symbiotic.

• There’s a real cost to the lack of embodiment of mature Masculine and Feminine archetypes - and therefore a lack of symbiotic relationships - but we’re largely unaware of that because they’re barely present in our culture as a possibility in contrast to the norm

• This lack is why looking deeper and broader to history across the world and directly to the divine archetypes can be so powerfully illuminating.

What you’ll learn from this episode:

• When we want to change the world, we can begin with ourselves… clean our own blood and we clean the river.

This week's show is with Jason Goldberg. Jason “JG” Goldberg is a Mental Performance and Leadership Coach for Celebrities, Change Makers and CEOs. He is also the host of The Jason Goldberg is Ruining Podcasting Podcast, author of the #1 International Best-Seller on Self-Leadership entitled “Prison Break” and creator of the Playful Prosperity AND Competition-Proof Business Immersion programs.

JG has been a featured expert on media outlets including ABC, CBS, and FOX as well as teaching on the MindValley and SoulPancake platforms and has founded multiple start-ups including one in partnership with NASA and the space shuttle program. He now focuses on blending his signature mix of simple and transformational wisdom, captivating storytelling, practical business mentorship, and belly-busting humor to make personal growth less “personal growth-y” and to leave everyone he meets with at least 5% more joy than when he found them!

In this conversation, Jason and I explored being in alignment with our souls, the hard choices we’ll need to make along the way, how to navigate the fear and consequences of those choices, and what Jason has learned has helped him to do so.

As ever with Jason, there was a real mixture of hilarity and depth - it was so good to have him back on the show in its third evolution!

We’d love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment below or share in our fb group.

What you’ll learn from this episode:

• As Jason said, creativity without introspection makes we just create the unaligned things faster and bigger.

• Being in integrity with others is important, but we can’t truly be in integrity unless we’re in integrity with ourselves

• I loved Jason’s story of discovering how the universe and his friends had his back - one way or another, this is what’s here for all of us.

This week's show is with Terje Simonsen. Terje G. Simonsen is a Norwegian Historian of Ideas and non-fiction author, specializing in the esoteric and occult. He is educated at the University of Oslo, where he also has taught introductory courses on philosophical and literary works.

His dissertation on the anthroposophical journal Janus received much acclaim and was released as a book in 2001. In the prestigious series The Cultural Library and The World’s Holy Scriptures, Simonsen has published essays on I and Thou, the mystically inspired main work by the dialogue philosopher Martin Buber, and The First Book of Enoch, an esoteric text from antiquity. Simonsen has received several grants, and is a full member of ESSWE, the European Society for the Study of Western Esotericism. - In addition, Simonsen is educated in gestalt therapy and psychosynthesis, and his varied career has also included stints in psychiatry, kindergarten, museums, security, catering etc. Today he works as a freelance writer. Simonsen is also a café aficionado, salsa dancer, amateur pianist and chess player.

Since childhood Simonsen has been fascinated by ‘magical’ phenomena as telepathy, clairvoyance, precognition, and healing—an interest based on some peculiar experiences of his own as well as strange stories told by friends and family. Later, this fascination led to extensive forays into esoteric and occult traditions, where such phenomena are not seen as chimera but as part of an expanded consciousness, and also into the science about such phenomena, i.e. parapsychology. The result is the present book, an entertaining, colorful and multifaceted good read, endorsed by several of the world’s foremost experts in the field as well as a number of other authors and critics.

In this conversation, a part two to our last conversation which was about the mental internet - Terje’s metaphor for the collective unconsciousness, Terje and I explored how we can actually use it! We spoke about several of the powerful and also practical uses of the mental internet and went deep into military use and then what we might call personal growth or soul work in the ways described by Jung.

We’d love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment below or share in our fb group.

What you’ll learn from this episode:

• Just like with the actual internet, we can use the mental internet in so many ways to download, transmit and receive important information

• Understanding how such vastly different field as the military and Jungian depth psychology have both harnessed the mental internet for profoundly efficacious purposes, really helps to ground it into something way beyond something that’s just fun or nonsense

• I love Terje’s description of “Finger tip feeling’, we need to learn how to resensitise and open to receive the sometimes subtle ways the mental internet transmits

This week's show is with Craig Richardson. Craig Richardson describes himself as a ‘camper, hiker, animist, bodhrán drummer, mushroomer, waterfall chaser, weed-eater, rewilding human and student of life. He is interested in what he calls “deep humanity”, and seeks to understand the interplay between modern living and our more primal roots. This interest has led him on a personal journey of understanding his own deeper humanity, in such areas as diet, lifestyle, language, art, education, spirituality and community.

In this conversation, Craig and Lian explored toxic masculinity vs healthy masculinity, inspired by a post that Craig wrote which included a quote from Iron John by Robert Bly “The activity that men were once known for is no longer required.”

We spoke about what those activities are that Bly was referring to, what we’ve all lost in the process and how it’s led to men to a disconnection from self, other men, community, and the land. Lastly, we explored ways back to that connection.

In this conversation, the first of a two-part conversation, Terje and I explored what he calls the mental internet, which is his metaphor for consciousness. We talked about paranormal phenomena, including his own stories and also scientific research. It really was such a deep, broad conversation, literally talking about time and space and beyond!

This week's show is with Damo Mitchell. Damo Mitchell is the author of several books on internal arts, the technical director of the Lotus Nei Gong International School as well as the founder of The Internal Arts Academy and the Xian Tian College of Medicine. He has studied the arts of Asia since the age of four. Starting out in martial arts, but shifted into the spiritual traditions of Buddhism and Daoism along with an in depth study of Chinese medicine. These days, he continues his studies within the spiritual traditions of China and South East Asia from his home base in Bali, Indonesia.

In this conversation, Damo and I explored ci: what is it, how does it work and how can we work with it.

I’d love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment below.

What you'll learn from this episode:

• Qi is energy that is likely the same as is described in many different traditions across the world and throughout time - the difference is how we work with it
• Damo said that the cause of most blockages in energy is what's happening in the mind - if we can create flow in the body, it will create flow in the mind and vice versa as they are intrinsically linked
• Open the body - pull the bones apart! And attention rather than intention, bring awareness to what's happening.

This week's show is with Daniel Pinchbeck. Daniel Pinchbeck is the New York Times bestselling author of Breaking Open the Head, 2012: The Return of Quetzalcoatl, How Soon Is Now, and When Plants Dream (with Sophia Roklhin).

He hosted the talk show Mind Shift on Gaia TV and was featured in the 2010 documentary, 2012: Time for Change. He has written for many publications including The New York Times Magazine, Rolling Stone, Wired, Dazed & Confused, Purple, and ArtForum. He is the director of Liminal.news, an online course platform, and publishes a regular newsletter, Danielpinchbeck.substack.com .

In this conversation, Daniel and I explored the fascinating topic of DMT, (N, N-Dimethyltryptamine) also known as the Spirit Molecule. We covered what DMT is, its history and research that's been done about it, and how Daniel sees its role in human consciousness and the challenges of the world today.

I’d love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment below.

What you'll learn from this episode:

• Daniel described the two schools of thought around the use of psychedelics, one ceremonial and one purely focused on their medical use, given the wider benefits of modern humans reclaiming our connection to nature and to the ancient practice of ceremony and ritual, if you're listening to this show then you don't need to choose between those options - you can have both!
• I loved what Daniel said about the ways that different spiritual traditions have practices such as darkness immersion and meditation that open humans to the kinds of experiences that taking DMT can create... ultimately all of these practices appear to be giving us an experience of reality beyond that of our ordinary human consciousness
• There's a renaissance in the use of DMT in its various forms happening now and we're discovering uses and benefits in all kinds of fields - as Daniel said, this could be akin to the period in which we discovered electricity and how to harness it

This week's show is with Steve Sims. Quoted as “The Real Life Wizard of Oz" by Forbes and Entrepreneur Magazine, Steve Sims is a best selling Author of 'Bluefishing: The Art of Making Things Happen, sought-after coach', top-rated speaker in the US speaker after keynoting at a variety of networks, groups and associations as well as the Pentagon and Harvard – twice. He is the founder and CEO of the luxury concierge service Bluefish. 

He's someone who has worked with Sir Elton John and Elon Musk, sent people down to see the wreck of the Titanic on the sea bed and managed to get the museum in Florence, Italy that houses the most famous sculpture on Earth, The Statue of David, to shut down in order to host a private dinner for his client at the foot of the statue with Andrea Bocelli serenading them while they ate their pasta.

In this show, we explored the question: what would you create if you weren't afraid of being laughed at? We spoke about cancel culture, the lack of true conversation, how we kill our dreams when people mock us - and why those people are rarely the ones to take notice of. And lastly, why and how you can go for stupid!

I’d love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let’s carry on the conversation…  please leave a comment below.

What you'll learn from this episode:

• I loved what Steve said about needing to have the conversation with ourselves about our dreams first - often we're the first person to mock ourselves, instead how about we become the first person to acknowledge ourselves for our dream?
• People will almost certain laugh at you, especially to begin with, the choice is whether to take notice of them or to listen to the people whose opinion you respect
• Steve's car analogy was a great one! I wonder what lives we'd create if we made it natural for us to go for stupid?

This week's show is with Jez Hughes. Jez is a British shaman, having studied intensively the path of shamanism for 30 years. His healing journey began when, as a teenager, he experienced a fit that propelled him into an altered state of consciousness. It took a long time to integrate that experience and find healing for the physical and mental disturbances it initiated. This journey that he now understands as a shamanic one lasted for around 17 years and took him through healing and spiritual traditions across the earth until he finally came home to shamanism and found practical methods to cure himself. He has studied with various teachers and indigenous elders across the world.

Jez's work has featured in the national press, as well as TV and radio and magazines including Sacred Hoop, Natural Health, Kindred Spirit and Soul & Spirit. His first book, The Heart of Life – Shamanic Initiation and Healing in the Modern World, was published in 2015 and his new book The Wisdom of Mental Illness – Shamanism, Mental Health and the Renewal of the World was published by Watkins in 2021. Jez’s passion is empowering people to reawaken their ancestors, the land where they reside and their spiritual heritages to heal the relationship between the human and natural world.

In this conversation, Jez and I explored the practice of making offerings as part of a relationship and conversation with Spirit - what offerings are, the benefits of making them, and how we can begin or deepen that practice.

I’d love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment below.

What you'll learn from this episode:

• There are two important levels to making offerings:
  • As a thank you and giving back when we take so much
  • As a way of slowing progress so we don't make things so quickly that we take at a rate that throws things out of balance
• Making offerings is an embodied conversation with Spirit, it takes it out of our heads and into life
• When we give, we also give back to ourselves, we know our place in the universe and that we're not alone

This week's show is with Susan Guner. Susan is a trained, somatic, trauma-informed holistic psychotherapist with a mindfulness-based approach grounded in Transpersonal Psychology that focuses on holistic perspective through introspection, insight, and compassionate self exploration to increase self-awareness, allowing the integration of the mind, body and spirit aspects of human experience in personal growth and development.

In this show, Susan and Lian explored psychedelic medicines as an alternative path to treating cancer and its causes. Susan's understanding of the research that's been done in this area and her own experience of supporting people with cancer.

When we agree to record on this topic, Susan and I both knew it would be an edge, cancer is a very sensitive subject and the angle we’re exploring isn’t exactly mainstream, added to which modern understanding and research around using psychedelics in this way is very nascent. We knew there could be some things that were shared that could be triggering, and also there might be things that were shared now that could turn out to be different in time, with more experience and knowledge. 

Despite this, we agreed that we wanted to do record this now anyway as it felt so necessary and important to get this knowledge out there. We did so and went there fully and openly, without much in the way of caveats which would have made the conversation safer and more palatable but would have meant the message was diluted.

I understand that the way we spoke could come across as insensitive and so it feels important to say that we are coming from deep compassion and the strong intention for this episode to be as serving as possible to those with cancer.

I’d love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let’s carry on the conversation…  please leave a comment below.

What you'll learn from this episode:

• We are discovering that psychedelic medicines appear to be a match for cancer, among other things - this is a reclamation of ancient gnosis, knowing we can work with the natural world to find the match between illness and medicine in this way
• The medicine has the intelligence to go where it needs to and work at the necessary level - Susan's seen that with cancer, it's mainly physical initially, not psychological
• It's important to recognise that this is about creating a relationship with the medicines, seeing them as allies and entering into a reciprocal, honouring relationship

This week's show is with Dr. Sharon Blackie. Award-winning mythologist, psychologist, and writer Dr. Sharon Blackie is widely known and regarded for her publications, classes, seminars, and workshops  which centers on the growth of the mythic imagination and the applicability of myth, fairy tales, and folklore to the social, political, and environmental issues of today.

Sharon has given lectures and classes at several universities, Jungian organizations, retreat centers, and cultural events all around the world.

In this show, Sharon and Lian explored the topic of female elderhood and her work to support women to reclaim their Inner Hag, mature into their own unique expression of hagitude and pass down their deep feminine wisdom for the benefit of their community.

I’d love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let’s carry on the conversation…  please leave a comment below.

What you'll learn from this episode:

• We can reclaim menopause as a time of stripping away, letting go of the roles and expectations of our life and culture, allowing us to open to the deeper knowing of who we are and are to become
• The archetypes Sharon described, such as the fairy godmother and the truth teller, are ones that it's clear are deeply needed in our culture
• The vision Sharon spoke of, that of a wiser, more authentic world is one that many of us see is needed and are looking for solutions for... the Hag seems to be an important part of the answer

This week's show is with John Patrick Morgan. John Patrick is a Philosopher and Champion for Being whose life purpose is to serve the one person in front of him, right here and right now. To see them fully, to create who they are and to make a meaningful difference for them honestly and completely.

He leads a team of Creating Champions who teach, coach, and guide thousands of entrepreneurs and artists in being more free, loving, and powerful. By learning and embodying the Creating perspective, their clients achieve a union of outcomes in spiritual growth, material success, and social impact. The foundation of John Patrick Morgan’s role as a philosopher, teacher, and guide, is his being a real-world practitioner. He walks his talk, lives what he teaches, and has a genuine and powerful commitment to creating everybody.

Post his formal studies in Physics and Mathematics, John Patrick built multiple small businesses (including one from a laptop and a backpack before the term ‘digital nomad’ existed), developed real estate, traveled the world for years on end, coached human rights leaders, recorded albums & toured with his band, created a kids library in Cambodia, learned to scuba dive & pilot gliders, published writing and photography, competed as a black belt & triathlete, trained with Buddhist monks in India, cycled toured for months and many other adventures. In recent years, his adventures have turned inward as his family came to be. He and his wife now reside with their two young boys in the countryside at 4000′ on a mountain in Maui.

Beyond his daily work with clients, he has been invited to share his ideas and spirit on numerous stages. (TEDx, Global Citizens Forum, BBC & SkyTV, YES Group, Interesting Talks London, InsideOut Movement, METal International, educational institutions, etc.) At a private event, attended by many of the world’s billionaires, JP was invited to speak on creating a world world without borders. At the University of Cambridge, he was the subject of a covert study between the psychology and business departments where researchers sought to understand the impact of his state of being.

In this conversation, John Patrick and I explored the archetype of the King - what he means to each of us, how and why JP has been working with him and what doing so has created so far in his life.

I’d love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment below.

What you'll learn from this episode:

• As JP shared, we can often have wounds around powerful archetypes like the King and the Queen, bringing those wounds and the truth of the archetypes into awareness can be deeply healing and ultimately, create a portal to expansion into deeper aspects of ourselves
• The King provides a level of elevation, where a man embodying him can see the impersonal truth of things and the vast array of possibilities available to him, and I loved how JP described moving between that elevation and then back into the reality of his physical body, where some things are not possible or aligned but other things are
• Lastly, I loved hearing JP speak of the new level of power, depth and decisiveness that's become embodied in him as he's been working with the King, he said "I feel like my spine is taller and straighter. Maybe I've grown an inch. I don't know. My voice has deepened and continues to deepen. I am shocked at how simple things can be and how much quicker things can move when the King is expressed, how he's been taking action." whilst the call to an archetype goes way beyond material results, it still is beautiful to know how our lives can be enriched in doing so.

This week's show is with Huw Mackin. Huw Mackin is a British Shamanic practitioner, residential child practitioner, a highly qualified outdoor professional, international mountain leader, natural horse handler, bushcraft and survival expert, and above all else, a father.

Huw came from a long profession working with emotionally traumatised children and young people for local authorities and other institutions. Inspired by the shortcomings of these institutions, Huw created long term immersive wilderness based programs for local authorities focused on rehabilitating children deemed ‘unreachable’, with great success.

The progression of Huw’s professional career, along with his own personal healing journey, and the realisation that the problems facing humanity today stem from a lost connection with the natural world, inspired Huw to launch his company: Primal Healing, which offers a range of healings, expeditions, courses and programs designed to support people back into relationship with the natural world, one of which being ‘Wildlings school of Woodcraft & Wiccary’, the UK’s first animistic nature based school for children.

Taking inspiration from present day indigenous tribal cultures, folklore, mythology, this land’s history and our ancestral spiritual heritage, Huw created Wildlings School, offering children a greater understanding of how to maintain a direct and boundless relationship with this truly magical world through exploration and play.

Wildlings School of Woodcraft and Wiccary - where folklore is law, magic is real and everything is possible.

In this show, we spoke about... children and animism. We explored Huw's own challenges in childhood, including spending time in care, and the way his connection with nature was so important to him; his journey to this point of working with children and introducing them to Spirit via nature; and finally, Huw shared some practical ways, care givers can introduce children to this path.

I’d love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let’s carry on the conversation…  please leave a comment below.

What you'll learn from this episode:

• I loved what Huw said about how children are naturally immersed in a magical world and then as adults, we feel a deep yearning for it - guiding our children to create a relationship to nature as the tangible face of Spirit allows them to never grow out of magic.
• Whilst nature connection via rewilding can be beneficial, what are we connecting to? Communing with nature as an intentional opening to Spirit is what allows all of us to reclaim the deeply connected way of living that is our heritage and birthright.
• Be led by the child. Adopt a spot - in the garden or somewhere on local land, build a relationship with it, making offerings, and share stories about the myths of the land.

This week's show is with Dr. Bruce Greyson. Dr. Bruce Greyson is Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry and Neurobehavioral Sciences at the University of Virginia School of Medicine. He was a co-founder and President of the International Association for Near-Death Studies, and Editor of the Journal of Near-Death Studies.

Dr. Greyson has published more than a hundred scholarly articles about near-death experiences in peer-reviewed medical journals and three academic books. He has addressed more than a hundred national and international professional conferences.

His research for the past four decades has focused on near-death experiences and particularly their after-effects and implications. His book, After: A Doctor Explores What Near- Death Experiences Reveal about Life and Beyond, is his first trade book bringing his scientific research to a popular audience.

In this conversation, Dr. Greyson and I explored what NDEs teach us about life. We talked about experiences people have, the research that shows what might be creating these experiences, and what happens to people afterwards. We explore why understanding NDE could benefit us all.

I’d love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment below.

What you'll learn from this episode:

• The evidence on NDE shows that what takes place can't solely be explained by a shutting down of the brain - as Bruce said, it's really a combination of that and something else that shows that consciousness isn't created in the brain
• Bruce said that the thing he hears over and over from people who have had NDE is that they say they now understand why there's The Golden Rule in all religions: "Do unto others and you would have done unto you", it's because whatever we do to others, we do to ourselves because we're ultimately all one
• We don't have to have a NDE personally in order to benefit from them, simply learning about NDE and what they suggest about our universe, can in itself bring a deeper sense of peace and security

At the University of Cambridge, he was the subject of a covert study between the psychology and business departments where researchers sought to understand the impact of his state of being.

In this conversation, a part two to our last episode about magic, John Patrick and I explored the topic of magic when it comes to children - how we can parent in a way that both allows children to retain their natural sense of magic and possibility, and at the same time, gives them an understanding of what we might call our cultural "agreed upon reality", holding both lightly as we do. We spoke about all kinds of examples, including personal stories from our own families.

I’d love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment below.

What you'll learn from this episode:

• I loved the example of dragons and dinosaurs that JP gave - this is such a great metaphor for how we can hold and teach so many things to our children.
• Whether we're talking about a rational reality or a magical one - there's benefit in holding both lightly with the openness to possibility, knowing that we don't know what we don't know.
• Children are naturally very open to magic and archetypes, in the form of role-playing super heroes, our role is to help them to continue to stay open to magic so that one day they can create with it as adults
