The insights flowed so naturally that one episode just wasn’t enough, so this is part one of our chat, with part two coming next month. Be inspired.

This podcast is a great example of men actively contributing to their communities. We all come from different walks of life and experience life in different ways, but this podcast highlights how we are all connected and share all the same highs and lows in life. We talk about how important it is to make ourselves a priority. This way, our workplaces, our friends, our partners, and our kids get the best version of us. Liam talks about his work with Amend Movement and Ryan shares his experiences with the Brotherhood Awakening. They emphasise that we are only at the very beginning of great things to come in terms of events and movements we are all creating for better mental health within our communities. What a great example of great men leading the way! This podcast will leave you inspired.

This podcast is jam-packed with greatness. To begin, we delve into IGNITE — a men's fitness group session that welcomes individuals of all ages, sizes, fitness levels, and walks of life to join. The Human Allegiance brings these men together for a workout, ice bath, and concludes with an open circle to discuss their takeaways from the day and how such experiences benefit their mental health. What these men do is a great starting point for those seeking change and wanting to be part of a new community. We also discuss silent retreats, psychedelics, and the benefits of plant-based medicine in treating trauma and improving mental health. We delve into the importance of fatherhood and how our well-being as men impacts our families and those around us. Like I said, we cover a lot in this podcast, so buckle up; we're going deep.

With the passing of my grandfather, I wanted to open this podcast up for a raw conversation about the experience of loss or losing someone close to you. We all go through this at some point in our lives, and as with all discussions related to mental health, it's important to emphasise that it's perfectly acceptable to share our feelings and emotions regarding loss. We are taking this opportunity to show love and support among family and friends during times of grief. In this episode, we delve into our personal experiences with ayahuasca. Ayahuasca has played a significant role in my personal journey of growth, healing, and delving deeper into my spiritual life. Stu opens up and shares his journey, which includes transitioning from being a teenage skater to becoming a part of the rave scene and how a drug overdose changed his life. It's often during these dark times that we find the light to a better path. In many cases, surrendering to the situation and allowing it to be an opportunity to learn, grow, or be shown a better way. This can be a gift from grief. Throughout the episode, Cam, Stu, and I discuss various avenues such as yoga, meditation, making new friends, and finding a supportive community. It was such a pleasure to see the love that these boys have for one another. Enjoy.
