I’m lucky. I get to have great conversations with Ross every day. It’s like having my very own spiritually-evolving Joe Rogan (without the cigars)!
But here’s a conversation I can share - a recent podcast/interview with my favorite healer/teacher/practitioner.
Copying and pasting below:
Back in January, I had a great conversation with Sean Trace of the 39Gen podcast, associated with Yo San University, which just went live recently. It was a fun discussion on a wide range of topics related to health and healing, the patient-practitioner relationship and much more. After a bit on my background, we discuss my process of relating to patients, the importance of using sophisticated maps to understand the patient’s actual lived experience (and not just catalog symptoms), the role of community and connection, my current process of deconstruction, and more.
Below are a number of short clips from this podcast, so feel free to look at those if you’re undecided about watching the entire 45 min. Here is the full show if you want to jump right in:
