Me and my friend John Richards recently decided to record one of our conversations. As it is my custom, I did not prepare in any way — when it comes to heart-inspired conversations, I have learned to simply 'tune in' to the reality within, lay down any agendas I might have, and stay open and curious.

But even I didn't expect this conversation to happen in the way it did...

Our time together turned from conversation to interview, but it wasn't John who was being interviewed — it was me!

We delved into things such as:

— how we first met, and what John's first impression of me was

— the impact of a group of friends who are 'real' and committed to truth

— how men tend to overcompensate for inner 'weaknesses' and how to move on from those cycles

— sex, porn and masturbation

— what happens when men are not taught and trained to handle power as boys

— the price of 'killing the boy' inside yourself and building up external life without him

— the origins of the desire to control our environment and the fear that hides behind the facade of the muscle-building addiction

— the way unresolved childhood issues are taken into a marriage

— the way shame and the fear of 'being seen' play out in a man's life and relationships

— the effectiveness of forgiveness which does not take away a person's power

— the importance of honouring all emotions and releasing them from repression

...and more!
