Executive Direction of the Living/Dying Project RamDev Dale Borglum joins us for this week as we discuss how to live a life of transformation so we can face death more peacefully. 

To Support the Show: 

Joining us for the debut episode of the Islands of Coherence Podcast is Marianne Williamson! 

Here's a major update for the future of this platform. We are now laying the '21st Century Vitalism' show to rest and ushering in a new chapter for the broadcast. I'm very excited to announce the newest iteration of this effort, 'Islands of Coherence'. Stay tuned for more updates and episode releases. 

Joining us on the show for this episode is graphic designer, cartographer, and smellwalk guide, Dr. Kate Mclean. Kate's work is at the intersection of human-perceived smellscapes, cartography, and the communication of 'eye-invisible' sensed data. She uses a range of media including digital design, watercolor, animation, and sculpture to encourage and stimulate people to consider smell in new ways.

Joining us on the show today is renowned psychedelic expert, facilitator, and author, Zach Leary! For this conversation we explore the when, where, how, and why of incorporating psychedelics into your journey of self-inquiry and healing. Having sat with hundreds of individuals in their own medicine journeys as well as partaking in hundreds of personal voyages through the psychedelic space, Zach’s unique perspective captures both the immense healing potential as well as the broader mystical implications in a way that nobody else does.

Joining us on the show this week is the parkour teacher, martial artist, and founder of Evolve, Move, Play - Rafe Kelley. Having spent 20 years exploring diverse movement practices, Rafe has gone on to create a system which combines parkour, connecting with the natural world, and building community through intentional interactions. In this conversation, we explore how we can create a deeper sense of embodied living through movement.

Joining us on the show for this episode is the Australian academic, author, and Indigenous thinker, Tyson Yunkaporta. His work explores Indigenous knowledge systems and their relevance to contemporary global challenges, including sustainability, education, and systems thinking. In this conversation we explore the central themes of his book, ‘Right Story, Wrong Story: How to Have Fearless Conversations in Hell’.

This weeks episode of 21st Century Vitalism is with the one and only, David Nichtern!

Joining us on the show this week is American composer, performer, and producer, Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith. In this conversation we explore the connections created from interacting with art, somatic listening, and discovering your own authentic voice. Kaitlyn is a classically trained creative force who uses an array of rare synthesizers to generate unique and immersive pieces that transport you to different spaces.
