PREVIOUS EPISODES 🔗
This week I got to hang with the creators of the beautiful and important documentary People of The West. But before we got into the studio they gave me a tour of their lands, reservation, and I got the honor of meeting wi'áaşal mukát - The 1500 year old Great Oak.
This week we chat with Emma Orfield as I head out to Minneapolis to visit the the anechoic chamber at Orfield Laboratories. It is Guinness World Record-holding room that absorbs 99.99% of sound and measures down to –24.9 decibels. As an avid meditator, I have always wanted to visit this place and t…

I wrote and explore all things liberation, and I'd say we are in serious need of it right now. On my page, I interview other substackers doing incredible things, so this …
This week we chat with Carlos Guzman, the founder, CEO & Creative director of Brown N Proud. A dope clothing brand or as he likes to say, "this is a movement for our people, a movement that will endure for ages to come." Enjoy the beautiful Brown genius and pride in this episode.
Rafael is all heart and genius. He's a prolific writer and thinker, and on the front lines fighting to bring justice to so many injustices. Enjoy this honest, fun and candid convo.
Jade is hilarious, wise and beautiful - yes - but also courageous. I love this chat because it inspired me and still inspires me to take risks and listen to my hearts calling. This is a powerful conversation on trusting oneself and putting one foot in front of the other.

“People can envision the end of the world, before they can envision the end of capitalism, why do you think that is!?” This was too short of a conversation. You are going to love every bit of this. This is originally from my Substack - Engaged Liberation. You will be lit up by it. Make sure to chec…
Andrea Londo is an actress among many things, but I brought her into the studio to chat Two Lands Films! Two Lands, which is what so many of us listening embody. This is the body of culture expereince, many lands and speaking many tongues. I loved this convo. Enjoy.
