Traver Boehm is the author of Today I Rise, as well as Man UNcivilized. He’s a two time TEDx speaker and men’s coach, and the founder of the UNcivilized Men’s Movement redefining the way around the globe experience their masculinity by uniquely blending both the Primal Masculine with the Divine.

Drawing upon an eclectic background ranging from professional bodyguarding and Mixed Martial Arts to Traditional Chinese Medicine and meditation, Traver also teaches people to skillfully use the inevitable pain of their lives as fuel for growth and positive change.

In 2016 after losing a pregnancy, his marriage, and his business partnership all within days of each other, he created a radical social experiment and spent the next 12 months as if it were his last year to live, aptly naming it “The Year to Live Project.” A few of the highlights of the year include:

Volunteering with the dying as a hospice worker

Spending 28 days in complete isolation and pitch black darkness in Guatemala (TEDx for reference)

Living in the frigid Utah wilderness for a month with only a knife, a water bottle, and a blanket

When not teaching or radically shifting the way men experience their masculinity, Traver can be found chewing on his thumbnail in front of his laptop, chasing surf around the globe, or being reminded that yoga is a lot harder than it looks.

Topics Discussed:

How to own who you are

The 2 questions every person should ask themselves

The Hero’s Journey and answering the call

The year that changed his life

Spending 28 days in complete isolation and pitch black darkness in Guatemala (TEDx for reference)

Traver’s biggest questions to MEN

Lita Lewis is a Health Coach, Creator of Thick Athletics and Self-Love Advocate.

Born in Los Angeles, California, raised in Sydney, Australia, returned to the United States and made Brooklyn, NY home for 10 years before moving back to her birth city of Los Angeles. She has traveled the world motivating people to pursue their dreams and reach their goals.

Lita is all about building strong minds and bodies whilst sharing her positive messaging via social media. Teaching young women to become the best version of themselves, whether skinny or curvy frames, her philosophy is all about accepting, embracing and building strong minds, being healthy for life, finding inner balance and pursuing and accomplishing personal growth- Your best you.
