  <description>Richard Harris has a huge heart and is a force for freedom from tyranny in all its forms. That said, he’s been censored and de-platformed for speaking out about medical mandates and mind control through nefarious agendas that use tactics of fear-based control to illicit compliance and conformity.
In this episode, we unmask some of tyranny’s disguises and share our own experiences with obedience training and fear-based control tactics that are used to create divisions through media, government, gender conditioning, and more.
I loved this conversation because Richard asked me as many questions as I asked him. Neither of us had an agenda other than to explore where our questions might lead us, and I’m thrilled with the territory we covered as we touched on the passions that keep us committed to the path of freedom and the pursuit of higher consciousness. 
We discuss the importance of embracing curiosity, overcoming loneliness, and building self-respect. We also explore the division between awakening individuals and those who might be stuck in fear-based control and how COVID-19 accentuated and accelerated that divide using tactics of censorship, manipulation, and fear. 
Richard shares his own experience with obedience trauma when he was sent to military school at the tender age of eight, where he remained until he turned eighteen years of age. He reveals that this intense obedience training ironically amplifies his value of autonomy and freedom. It also prepared him for what he sees as the spiritual battle playing out on the planet today. Richard shares his understanding of where we are in our human evolution and how reconnecting to our spiritual selves and pursuing the path of consciousness is the most liberating work we can do, I love what he shares about the spiritual powers and gifts of women being especially needed at this time, and how men benefit from women who are fully embodied and liberated to shine their true sovereign selves. 
We also talk about walking the way of the warrior, the ancient spiritual path, and the middle path that calls us to unity by dispelling the many illusions that keep us in various states of polarity and how we can embrace the paradox of our existence to more clearly see the one true thing going on here. 
Buckle your seatbelt- this conversation is a ride through the seen and unseen realms for sure!

  <description>We've been taught to believe that myths are untrue, yet this indicates how atrophied our cultural mythic imagination is. As a result, myth has been relegated to consumer entertainment or dismissed as irrelevant to us vs. a potent way to more deeply understand ourselves in reciprocal relationships with others and the world. 
Ours is a fact-based, linear, logical, and control-based culture that doesn't allow much room to follow the deep longing to know ourselves, and yet the longing persists and will continue to persist until we answer its call. Perhaps this time in our human evolution represents a heightened collective calling - can we answer it? 
In this episode, Ian and I talk about where we are as a culture and Ian's hope for awakening men worldwide.
Ian became fascinated by the mythic masculine archetype when he initially learned more about the feminine through his film work. 
Ian was estranged from his grandfather growing up, but he went with his uncle to clean out his grandfather's home and came across a stack of books after his death. On top was "Iron John" by Robert Bly, which piqued his curiosity. 
When young men are not correctly initiated into adulthood and society, they become men at the mercy of their ego and are suspended as "boy-men" in our culture. 
The Dominator Culture is a term coined by Riane Eisler, who wrote The Chalice and The Blade. Eisler positions the dominator model in contrast to the partnership model, a more egalitarian structure of society founded on mutual respect among its inhabitants. In dominator culture, men rule over women, whereas partnership culture values men and women equally.
An awakened archetypical mother is a mighty force in the world.
Women tend to enact violence against themselves and Men against others. 
The narratives we often create are that the world is out to get us, that we need to conquer nature or anything threatening. 
The medical establishment creates a narrative around "war" - such as terms like "frontline workers" or "losing the battle to cancer," and there is a consequence to thinking about nature in this way. 
Our colonized view of the world keeps us from reciprocally engaging with life.
The solutions mind is a colonized mind. 
Ian MacKenzie is a new paradigm artist who lives on the Salish Sea with his partner and young son. For over ten years, he's been tracking the global emergence of new cultures. From the desert of Burning Man to the heart of Occupy Wall St, he has sought and amplified the voices of visionaries, artists, and activists working toward planetary system change. He hosts The Mythic Masculine podcast and is the founder of A Gathering of Stories.

<p>Ours is a fact-based, linear, logical, and control-based culture that doesn&#39;t allow much room to follow the deep longing to know ourselves, and yet the longing persists and will continue to persist until we answer its call.

  <description>We’ve been taught to believe that myths are untrue, and yet, this indicates how atrophied our cultural mythic imagination is. As a result, myth has been relegated to consumer entertainment or dismissed as something irrelevant to us vs. as a potent way to more deeply understand ourselves in reciprocal relationships with others and the world. 
Ours is a fact-based, linear, logical, and control-based culture that doesn’t allow much room to follow the deep longing to know ourselves, and yet the longing persists and will continue to persist until we answer its call. Perhaps this time in our human evolution represents a heightened collective calling - can we answer it? 
In this episode, Ian and I talk about where we are as a culture and Ian's hope for awakening men worldwide.
Ian became fascinated by the mythic masculine archetype when he initially learned more about the feminine through his film work. 
Ian was estranged from his grandfather growing up, but he went with his uncle to clean out his grandfather's home and came across a stack of books after his death. On top was "Iron John” by Robert Bly, which piqued his curiosity. 
When young men are not properly initiated into adulthood and society, they become men at the mercy of their ego and are suspended as "boy-men” in our culture. 
The Dominator Culture is a term coined by Riane Eisler, who wrote The Chalice and The Blade. Eisler positions the dominator model in contrast to the partnership model, a more egalitarian structure of society founded on mutual respect among its inhabitants. In dominator culture, men rule over women, whereas partnership culture values men and women equally.
An awakened archetypical mother is a very powerful force in the world.
Women tend to enact violence against themselves and Men against others. 
The narratives we often create are that the world is out to get us or that we need to conquer nature or anything that threatens us. 
The medical establishment creates a narrative around “war” - such as terms like "front line workers” or “losing the battle to cancer,” and there is a consequence to thinking about nature in this way. 
Our colonized view of the world keeps us from reciprocally engaging with life.
The solutions mind is a colonized mind.
