Michael Maisey has an incredible transformational story - If this is the first time you have heard of him, go check it out!

On this Episode we dive into the connecting safe spaces he and his team are creating at @thecipproject and his recent Sundance Initiation where he went 4 days without food & water and concluded the experience with his chest being hung up in the air with hooks. We discuss our connection to the mystery of this human experience and why it's important to connect with a lineages and elders.

Michael runs a NGO in Devon called Change Is Possible! His story is inspirational and is detailed in his bestselling book Young Offender, and more recently in a TEDx talk in 2022 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYgJN2aKspA

A conduit for an animate and articulate earth, Samantha has spent a lot of time communing and listening to the land whilst undertaking visionquests, wandering in the woods, sitting with the first nations senior lore women of Australia and experienced rites of passage work through different lineages around the world. These experiences have greatly informed and inspired the stories that she writes and shares. Her desire is to be of service to them all.

Sacred Storytelling Ceremonies every 6 weeks in Devon (on the Equinoxes, Solstices, and Quarter Festivals) designed to celebrate the earth’s changing wheel.

Are you symptom chasing? Do you chase the pain and manage it?

In this dive into Posture Therapy, we get a glimpse into the Ellie Burts approach to Human Health.She aims to change your life by teaching you how all your pain and stiffness is connected.

Long term pain reduction can only be achieved if you look at the body as a whole and don’t just symptom-chase.

She rejects the 'expert' label and prefers to identify as a truth seeker and someone who asks questions, doing her best to keep expanding her knowledge and to maintain an open, beginner’s mind, always welcoming conflicting opinions and new ways of thinking. At the core of her work is teaching the mindset and tools to her clients so they can figure things out for themselves.

Tasha Elena Stevens-Vallecillo is a mixed race Nicaraguan and English woman whose parents met during the Sandinista revolution. During her early twenties she learnt her skills of foraging, farming and wild tending whilst living at the Tinkers Bubble eco-community in Somerset. In her twenties she helped to set up the regionalisation of the Land Workers Alliance and started her own micro-farm, farm shop and cooperative festival cafe, The Peasants Lunchbox.

Tasha now leads the food production at 42 Acres - a retreat centre and regenerative farm - and supports vision holding across the 173 acre site, stewarding their intention to live in harmony with nature, Self and others. The land and food production at 42 Acres is in its early years. Across the site different mixed farming methods are used, from producing outdoor shiitake and native medicinal wild mushroom strains to growing biodynamic vegetables, nut trees, seabuckthorn, medicinal perennials and soon regenerative beekeeping.

Tasha is a practising Buddhist and intuit and collaborates with various healers into 42 Acres to support the team in connecting to the deeper meaning of the work and the held mission, weaving community building, skill shares, moneyless economic exchanges and spiritual holding to create a web of interconnectivity that can stand up to the challenges and uncertainties of our time.

David is the founder of Mantra Mens work, providing world class experiences for men to heal, grow and transform. Something he desperately needed when he went through depression and near suicide. Through coaching, courses and retreats he utilises transformational coaching and Mens work to guide men to find purpose, clarity and the practical skills to thrive as men, lovers and fathers. Supporting them to master their emotions, remove the barriers and beliefs that hold them back he helps men unlock their potential, feel better, live better and create real change in their lives. He advocates for a reconnection to the wisdom of our community elders, the power of men’s council and a reclamation of ceremony and rites of passage that he says we have lost, to the detriment of boys, men and fathers.

Dan Brule is a world-renowned pioneer in the world of Breathwork. 

If you haven't heard of him, I urge you to check out our first conversation EP015: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0sKkpOZCgI&t=1758s

On April 24th 2022, Dan Brule made a public statement* that he was stepping back from all teaching and consulting to do some soul searching and deep inner work.I am not here to share my opinions because I don't know all the details, I have not been involved in this and I do not work in this field.

Things have not felt good for me and some still don't but I wanted to reconnect with Dan to hear his feeling on all of this. This for me was an opportunity to sit with Dan and form an authentic conversation rooted in truth, which are two big values of this Podcast.

And the intention was to hold space for Dans voice to be shared without an agenda and to ask some big questions.It's not been the easiest conversation to give the green light on because I know that it's a super controversial situation, but ultimately I believe I have done my best at holding it, and honouring the importance of it.

I tried my best to meet Dan with respect, compassion and remain in my own integrity understanding how hard this has been for everyone involved, and how many people have clearly been hurt by Dans lack of standards and protocols in his classes. He speaks about how the last year has unraveled for him, and as you will observe, it is still quite raw and difficult at times for Dan to process the level to which this has rocked the world of Breathwork.

If anything let Dans story be a reminder to all practitioners, that we are all human and all have the capacity to cause others to not feel safe or comfortable even when we feel we are helping so many with our work. I consider myself a space holder for self-development, growth and transformation so feel the context of this conversation brings me to something that is always on my heart, which is, we need to surround ourselves with people who call us in, in healthy ways, friends who challenge us for our betterment, ask and honour feedback and continue to do the work and be in spaces that challenge our own beliefs and shake our own perspective up.

Please share your feedback on this conversation in the comments section and subscribe, this is a free, easy and quick way to support the podcast!
