S1:E12 | Emily Maden

In this conversation, Emily and I discuss the de-conditioning from the overculture and how this is essential within our intimate relationships and sexuality. We explore the ways to truly embrace a rich life, and that it is through re-sensitization and truly embracing it ALL that we come into this state of living that truly feels.. alive! At Reclaiming Evolution this Summer, Emily will be offer 3 workshops:— a Morning Movement session with the Women (she used to be a pro Athlete in another lifetime)— Cosmic Courtsean, another incredible offering just for the Women, focusing on coming into contact with the deeper desire and honest expression we carry as Women — Sexual Maturation for the Radical Man & Woman, a space where we have those taboo conversations and invite for an adjusted perspective around sexuality when it comes to our committed partnerships, like saying f*uck the ‘honeymoon phase’ and the general assumption that s*x dies after having children.. Emily brings a whole new perspective to the table for couples to explore and discuss openly with one another. Check out more of her work:WebsiteInstagram-•-Purchase Festival Tickets HereVisit the WebsiteFollow on InstagramJoin our Newsletter CommunityBrowse the Shop

In this conversation, join Martine and I as she shares with us her understandings of biological Womanhood and femininity.We discuss that it is through submitting to our natural nature, as both Women and Men, that we come into harmonious ways of relating, within ourselves and with one another, and that it is through this submission that we can live in congruence with nature as the creator, God, intended us to.She highlights another key aspect of this submission has us no longer feeling victim to our human circumstances, but rather informed by them. Our symptoms, and whatever may be going on within our bodies, holds an intelligence — there are no errors — and that we need not escape our biology but rather come into respect toward it.At the Festival Martine will be offering 2 workshops: Women Healing the Father Wound through Embodying the Biological Laws of Creation AND Woman Loving MEN: Coming Home to Biological Femininity in Your RelationshipThese workshops are intended to illuminate a pathway forward for Women to understand their inner order and natural inclinations toward life & relationships, which naturally lead toward liberation and coming alive within their innate radiance as Women, in right relationship with Men, and in recognition of how we compliment one another.Martine De Luna is the Beloved of Ton in covenant union under Christ for almost two decades, and mother of a teenage son, and a preteen daughter. For thirteen years, Martine has also served the female collective as a Facilitator  of Feminine Creation and Feminine Responsibility, (actually, as certified life coach), specifically in:1) Responsibility in relationships in courtship, marriage, including relationship with business, with religious/spiritual discipline and lineage2) Responsibility over the Female Body, in every phase of Feminine Initiation of Biology (from Menarche to the Completion of the Mater/Motherhood Contract with Nature)3) Responsibility to Live in Obedience to the Truth of Natural (Godly) Law, with regard to Male and Female relationshipsFrom being en-trained within the Dome of “masculine principles” in the top-side world of personal development, to being led by God Himself down AND in-to the waters of the feminine, the feral-biological realms of brain & body, feelability and felt-sense, Martine has supported Feminine Women in the de-constructing of long-held, unchosen beliefs, de-armoring of mind-body religious programming and sexual shame, the healing of their relationships with God and with Men (males), and the Sweetening their marriages and parenting journeys, from Feminine Responsibility.Check out more of her work:InstagramSubstackFacebook GroupThe Edenic Woman-•-Purchase Festival Tickets HereVisit the WebsiteFollow on InstagramJoin our Newsletter Community

In this conversation, join Aaron and I as we discuss the developmental process — and challenges — Men (and us all) face in our current times, and how this has devastating impacts not only on our own health as individuals, but the health of our relationships, our families, and our children.We discuss the bottom up approach to healing — which is ultimately an integrative approach, allowing us to meet the moments of life we have previously been unable to withstand, and through doing so we evolve our capacity to meet and be with what it is that we are feeling & experiencing. When we are unable to hold life and ourselves, we numb out, phase ourselves out of the present moment, we become distracted and distant.. strengthening our capacity is a key piece in bringing presence back to the moment, and checking IN vs checking OUT.Aaron highlights that we aren’t working toward transcending or ascending above what makes us human and our experiences in life, but rather meeting them and residing deeper within said experiences and our humanness.From here, Aaron discusses how a man’s relationship to sexuality begins to develop along a sustainable track, as he no longer is obsessive or reaching for the remedy to his own inner disconnect, but rather present to the experience that is unfolding, and actively participating within it, in a reciprocal exchange with his partner.Aaron will be offering 2 workshops into the Festival this Summer: Mechanisms of Masculinity & and an Integration space for the Men to come together and reflect, digest and integrate their experiences throughout the weekend,  meeting that need for communal recognition and support. Aaron will also be offering 1:1 Somatic Experiencing sessions for those who wish to privately address their inner workings through somatic integrative work, these sessions are available for both Men & Women and can be booked through the link below, you can also reach out to Aaron directly to inquire about working with him AT the Festival or in other ways outside of the Festival offering.  Explore more of his work:InstagramWebsiteMechanisms of Masculinity (Free Intro Module)Book a Somatic Experiencing session during the festival-•-Purchase Festival Tickets HereVisit the WebsiteFollow on InstagramJoin our Newsletter Community

In this conversation join Rachelle Seliga and I as we explore what Reclaiming Evolution means to her, and how it ties into the work she offers into the world.We address the essential pillars of postpartum care for new mothers, as well as the crucial — yet often overlooked — stage of Rites of Passage, and the impacts this has on the current cultural norms we are all impacted by. Rachelle shares that many of the responses that women — mothers — are having today in our modern times, are actually incredibly appropriate and normal responses to the external conditions many are often faced with: lack of community care, lack of true support systems, lack of deep rest & nourishment - and so on - which have Mothers moving through the day to day motions feeling as though they are drowning, navigating maternal rage, anxiousness, depression, ocd and more.If we could recognize that many of the conditions that we have come to normalize in today’s world are actually symptoms of deeper rooted issues stemming from distancing ourselves from the natural nature of our innate design.. we would begin to restore our ability to course correct and begin meeting the needs we all carry, especially those of our Mothers.Rachelle Seliga is a devoted Mother and Midwife whose work is dedicated to midwifing a cultural shift - where our innate wisdom, personal authority and the sanctity of Life are honored and centered. Her legacy work is INNATE Postpartum Care - Certification Training, which teaches the global postpartum tradition of "Physiologic Postpartum Care,” the unifying tradition etched into the blood and bone of postpartum women.She holds true that the most effective and powerful usage of our respective & collective energy, comes from following that which is most alive in us - and creating from THIS place. In this way systems and structures that align with Life and our connection with it - are born. At Reclaiming Evolution this Summer she will be offering 3 of her own workshops, along with a co-facilitated offering with Dan Doty of Fatherhood Unlocked.Her solo offerings cover the grounds of Maternal Health, the Physiologic design of Parenting, and an offering for Women only focusing on recognizing our Desires AND Needs as Sacred.With Dan, she will be holding fireside conversation around Mothering & Fathering during our current times and addressing both what we know, and what we don’t know. ‘In a world full of distractions, how can men and women reclaim the power and responsibility of being initiated adults? In this fireside chat, Rachelle Seliga and Dan Doty will explore how the paths of initiation for men and women—distinct yet interconnected—can guide us back to what truly matters most. Join us to face the wildness of our times together - harnessing the necessary clarity and courage - to create the world we all say we want’Check out more of her Work:InstagramWebsite Free Class, MOTHERFOODSFree Class, Rites of PassageFree Class, The Mammalian Design of Parenting-•-Purchase Festival Tickets HereVisit the WebsiteFollow on InstagramJoin our Newsletter Community

In this Episode, join special guest Leandro and I as we explore through his personal journey within the schooling system — as a student then teacher — and as we unpack the conditioning that most of us carry. We break things down to better understand how to support our children’s innate learning abilities and ways we can create environments and experiences that support our children in thriving vs becoming another link in the corporate/institutional chain.Leandro is a former primary school teacher, devoted dad, and husband from Switzerland. His journey began inside the very system he once believed in - teaching within what’s often praised as one of the world’s ‘best’ education systems. But behind closed classroom doors, he uncovered a much different reality.Driven by a deep desire for truth and freedom, Leandro made the bold decision to leave his teaching career, relocate his family to Australia, and raise his voice against the limitations of modern education.Today, he’s on a mission to empower parents to break free from conventional schooling, trust their children’s natural curiosity, and reconnect with their own inner wisdom. Through his work, Leandro guides families on the path of unschooling - helping them unlearn, decondition, and create a life where learning is led by love, not control.Check out more of his Work:Instagram$10 Resource Bundle-•-Purchase Festival Tickets HereVisit the WebsiteFollow on InstagramJoin our Newsletter Community
