I almost fell off a cliff, but luckily, we learned a lot from it...luckily.
In this episode, I share a powerful personal story and reflections on finding sacred spaces in nature as a means of grounding and self-awareness. From my recent experiences leading men's workshops in Ireland to a near-miss on a cliff's edge, I explore how a deep connection with nature can guide us from overthinking and into presence. We delve into the ancient wisdom of stone circles, the importance of silence and solitude, and the transformative power of darkness.
Join me as we navigate these topics and learn to embrace the quiet, reflective moments that offer us true clarity and purpose.
