  • This is the real thing!

    Like Ben I am also a facilitator of powerful transformational work, specializing in working with men. After 25 years in the field it is easy to tell the real thing from the surface-level attempts. Ben does a phenomenal job of not only exploring and teaching but of modeling the work himself. Highly recommend.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#106 - Sacred Tobacco, Healing & The Warrior Path - w/ Jason Grechanik
Q: How do you reconcile the spirit of a plant with its chemical components, and what should listeners consider when approaching plant medicines?
Traditions view medicine as holistic, with spirit, mind, body, and energy all interwoven; isolating chemicals can be useful in some contexts, but the true medicine comes from engaging with the plant as a teacher and respecting its stories, rituals, and ethical responsibilities.
#106 - Sacred Tobacco, Healing & The Warrior Path - w/ Jason Grechanik
Q: What changes did you experience after your first tobacco diet, and why was it so difficult?
The change was deep and non-linear, accompanied by a profound inner shift that others noticed; the initial three days felt life-or-death, but later the experience revealed a new level of presence and capability, prompting a commitment to continue learning and diet with other plants.
#106 - Sacred Tobacco, Healing & The Warrior Path - w/ Jason Grechanik
Q: How did you first get involved in this path, and what drew you to tobacco as a medicinal plant?
I was exposed to different cosmovisions early on, moved to the Amazon for ayahuasca, and then encountered tobacco through a teacher who introduced me to the medicinal and ceremonial use; the initiation was challenging but transformative, opening me to a long apprenticeship and a broader understanding of plants as teachers.
#104 - Finding And Following Your Soul’s Path: Courage And Surrender - with Kute Blackson
Q: How do you coach or describe that for people to help them tune in?
Surrender is not laziness; it's about letting go of control and aligning with a purpose that is greater than yourself.
#104 - Finding And Following Your Soul’s Path: Courage And Surrender - with Kute Blackson
Q: How do you describe your profession?
I uncondition people. I create experiences that help people free themselves to connect with their authentic nature.
