I knew Rapha from way back during our yoga teaching days. So it was truly special reconnecting with him again for this raw and unfiltered conversation.  We delved about his life’s journey of martial arts, spirituality and fatherhood, and reflected on the importance of taking responsibility for yourself while respecting the unknown, as well as setting boundaries to protect your space.  Stuff we talked about:  Fatherhood Masculinity and the role of a man Being able to protect someone physically Jiu-jitsu journey Staying calm in deep waters Mr Not-so-Nice Guy Aggression and setting the tempo Accept and compose  Learning to say ‘No’ in Jiu-jitsu The exchange of energy and protecting your space Having a plan and setting intentions for each roll  Worshiping the Jiu-jitsu gods The endless pursuit  Death and Rebirth Dealing with suffering and seeking spirituality  Running from robbers in Peru Integrating with plant medicine There is no purpose  Respecting the space around you Acknowledging the unknown  Who you are when no one is watching Being responsible for yourself Everything is your fault Sawadikap,Aaron   ------------------------------------ Follow Rapha on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/sunceremony/ ------------------------------------ SUPPORT THE PODCAST :) https://ko-fi.com/mostlyyoga  FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/aaaroning/ https://www.instagram.com/mostlyyogapodcast/ ------------------------------------
