Michael McRay welcomes listeners into a different kind of episode - a celebration of his fifth book, The Wild Way: Navigating the Space Between the Old Story and the New, releasing today. Tune in for an intimate invitation into the heart of a project years in the making, born from more than a decade of coaching conversations, story facilitation, and personal notes from the dark forest. Michael reads from the opening pages of the book, sharing the concept of the wild twin - the exiled, instinctual part of ourselves that knows the way into the woods, the part we sent away for being too much, too loud, too alive. In this episode, Michael also shares:

• The inspiration behind the title The Wild Way
• How the book's dispatches function as reports from someone who's been in the thick of it, and found paths through
• What the "worthy if wanted" narrative is and how it keeps us chasing validation by tying our worth to whether others choose us
• Why your story needs patience while carefully uncovering truths buried beneath pain and shame
