Be Mythical

This week's show is with Robert Kandell. Robert is the host of the Tuff Love podcast, co-founder of OneTaste (orgasmic meditation) and the author of the new book Unhidden. He is a relationship expert, life coach and of course has his own personal breakup stories to tell. In this show we explored the state of the world today and what that means for our men. What the struggles are that are unique to men in these times, including the effect of free porn, the change in their roles, the masculinisation of women.. and what they can do to create positive change in their lives and relationships.

This week's show is with Ryan Simbai Jenkins, who was born and raised in Papua New Guinea to a medical anthropologist mother and professional musician and photographer father. He's a U.S citizen but has lived in France, Bangladesh, Australia, The U.S.A, Cambodia, Thailand, The Netherlands and Spain He attended the Duke Ellington High School for the Arts in Washington D.C and later the Rotterdam Conservatory (CODARTS) in The Netherlands to study music. During a particularly stressful period in his studies, he injured his hand while performing. After a long period of attempting to heal the injury through more conventional therapies, he learned self-hypnosis and almost instantly totally recovered his ability to play music! This led to an intense fascination and deep study and practice of meditation and self-hypnosis, NLP, coaching, different psychological modalities and diverse fields of personal development. His love of this field comes from the profound personal transformations he has experienced in his own life and those of his clients. He currently runs a hypnotherapy/change work practice in Barcelona Spain where he has lived for the last 7 years and is explores the boundaries of performance, therapy and coaching with people from all walks of life. This was a very different episode to the usual, Ryan took me through an hypnotic induction into a state of deep relaxation, and it's also something that you can take part in whilst listening at home too. He then followed up with some tips and habits you can use afterwards to create more relaxation in every day life. IMPORTANT: This is an episode that's likely to guide you into a deeply relaxed state and therefore isn't one to listen to whilst driving or any situation which wouldn't safe if you're not fully alert. It's one that's best listened to when you have a spare 45 minutes to lie back and let yourself be carried away to the delightful land of deep relaxation. If you're ready, sit back and let's relax together.

In this conversation, Ryan kindly gave me the space to ask him all of the weird and wonderful questions that I've been pondering around hypnosis. We recorded this, knowing it might never make the show given it wasn't going to be of interest or helpful for everyone but then once we'd finished speaking, we both agreed that actually it was worth sharing with those of you who are more into diving deep into this stuff.

This week's show is with Isis Leeor. Isis is responsible for a movement of whole, ripe, and unapologetic women who are finally coming out of the closet. For 15 years, she has been passionately teaching people (women and men) how to connect both hearts, the one in their chest and the one in their pelvis.

Isis Leoor has been featured in a myriad newspapers and radio shows alongside people like Storm Large, Dan Savage, Deborah Anapol and Sark. She is a counselor with an extensive background in Body Psychotherapy, Tantra, Hypnotherapy. Basically she does some kick ass embodied work online and in person, through workshops, intensives and private sessions. She is currently working on her book entitled “Feral Female.”

In addition to a lot of official studies, Isis has also howled at the moon, been saved by Qi-gong, taken drugs with a therapist, smoked a peace pipe, flipped off a Shaman, learned and unlearned emotionally responsible language, danced with her shirt off in public, avoided marrying an Essene guru, and worn cocktail dresses all over the world while going commando.

In this conversation, Isis and I explored the glorious topic of becoming a feral female! Isis shared her own story of going from numb to feral and then we talked about the reasons this is an enquiry that's relevant to almost all women in today's world. I hope you feel Isis's living invitation in this show and are able to respond to it in how you live your own beautiful life.
