Republishing this conversation with my soul brother and fan favorite, Boyd Varty. If you aren't familiar yet, Boyd is co-owner of Londolozi Game Reserve where he grew up amongst the wilderness and leads a life that implements and demonstrates the wisdom of the natural world.

In this episode we talk Story—how they either create ease or constriction, how to witness ourself in one, and how to alchemize thoughts, patterns and behaviors based on being witness to our own energetics. Boyd leads us through an intimate experience of him sitting with his egoic mind, allowing as many unfiltered thoughts to rise to the surface, what they feel like and eventually re-patterning and re-enforcing a more supportive and loving way of being.

Boyd and I dive into...

⟶ Befriending and witnessing the egoic mind

⟶ Mapping out the journey of a transformational process

⟶ The art of spiraling and melting down to allow for a new way of being to come through

⟶ Cultivating the father archetypal energy at its best

⟶ Tracking the ways that we upper limit ourself

⟶ And more!
