Our Father’s Day episode features a very special We See You Podcast listener. Eric Perez, father of three, Nadine’s younger brother, and 6th degree black belt in the martial art of Ninjitsu. He shares with us his own path of awakening. We explore with Eric the unique challenges and pressures that men face in society and how they can transcend these pressures through awakening their inner self.
Eric shares how martial arts has become a philosophy of life for him and how it has helped him find a sense of belonging and inner peace.
In this episode, we hear about a few key awakening experiences Eric experienced from adolescence through today including the birth of his daughter during the pandemic. Not long after, Nadine taught him about his human design and this has helped him understand his emotions and become a more conscious father.
For all the fathers out there listening, we want to wish you a Happy Father’s Day!
