On Tender, Loving, Vulnerability and Transformation

Let me make it clear that I share what I share because I believe and know of the power in vulnerability. I am well, I am strong, I am blessed, I am exactly where I need to be, experiencing exactly what is needed in service of my own transformation and that of the collective.

Male Suicide and the Divine Feminine

At different points yesterday I found my mind wondering about the suicide of my homeless friend Rem and I saw the connection with the feminine, the heart, the feeling centre.

When they were ready they walked over to the edge of the bridge and looked up stream at the clear water flowing, gurgling, singing gently to itself. They had made a pact.

Authentic, Sacred Masculinity

Let's talk about authentic, sacred masculinity. Because talking is the beginning, then comes the doing.... There is an inner compass within each man that will guide him on this path if he chooses to walk this way. When we consider that the majority of key players in shaping the way society and the world game has evolved were and are men you have to question whether this is the best we can do? What if there was another type of man? What...
