Deep Currents
Do you know who you are in the face of danger? Adam Kavanagh is an Australian survivalist who has dedicated much of the last decade to getting back to basics and living off the land in the remote areas of northern Australia. Initially triggered by a health crisis and then evolving into a way he chose to live, his deep connection to nature has profoundly shaped his understanding of bushcraft and survival skills. Adam was invited to learn and hang out with the Indigenous communities of Doomagee, where he spent nearly five years living solo, aside from the times he spent with the locals....

Michelle Palasia is the first guest on Deep Currents for a very good reason. Deep Currents is all about the stories that connect us and the wisdom that helps us remember who we are and what we are. From my 12 years immersed in Rites of Passage work, I know how babies are born—including the mother’s state, the birth itself, and the care of both mother and baby in the early years—shapes the rest of their lives. In the creation of life, the connection to the core of our Spirit is either nurtured or fractured. This connection is key to our capacity for wholeness, intimacy, relationships,...

After a three-year break from this podcast, it's back. It has a different name, a more refined intention, and is still connected to the art of storytelling. I touch on how currents, vibrations, and resonance are the cause and effect of life itself, taking you on a short journey from the beginning of time. I speak to the power of story and how it has shaped history and our culture. I also discuss how currents, connections, and stories can support us in returning to a deep place of belonging. I share a little about my journey of being smashed into a million pieces by Motherhood and what...

Adam Kavanagh lives like a caveman in outback Australia. He shares how he healed hyperthyroidism, depression and panic attacks when he began living paleo, stipping things back and striping back to the basics. He shares his experience of being on Naked and Afraid (the US reality show) where he was dropped in the middle of Africa with a woman he had never met and had to survive for three weeks.

This episode is vast in its topic and while it begins with the contradictions around some of the principles of psychology, we weave in and out of rabbit holes that most people can relate to including repressed trauma emerging in the *stressful* now of life and toxic bonds in passion relationships.

This is a solo session with a four-step self-assessment of your entire life. How often are we sacrificing happiness, joy, spaciousness, peace, love and orgasms for a cost we will pay 10 x time, at least, sometime in the future? Let's see.

Sammi Jane is a deliciously wise woman who brings light to the consciousness of the womb and its wisdom. And no, you don't need a physical womb in order for this to make sense, matter or tap into the flow of life's infinite energy.

Ever wondered what yoga teachers, healers, lightworkers, coaches and therapists mean when they talk about the divine, source, energy or soul? With this wild and wild trauma-informed coach, facilitator and yoga teacher, we unpack and navigate the invisible work of the divine.
Leila is a trauma-informed empowerment coach and spiritual mentor, who lives an adventurous nomadic lifestyle travelling all over the world to inspire healing through creative movement, personal empowerment & deep spiritual connection. You can find Leila with her pup, Folly, teaching yoga classes, leading mindfulness workshops and hosting health and wellness retreats.
So I am in love with Leila, she is one of those humans.
She’s experienced, embodied, honest, grounded, opened hearted, humble, strong fierce and fucking hilarious. This is one of my longer podcasts. We did this live in Costa Rica on the second last day of a retreat she was running that I dropped into to say hi and connect with her and our mutual friends and her co-hosts, Jeremy Goldberg and Traver Boehm.
Yes, life is delicious. Both Leila and I get lost in the flow of this topic and forget multiple times we are even on a podcast recording. We both share intimate experiences we’ve had unpacking some pretty messy times in our hearts and minds so you have real-life examples of how to do some of the work from birth to now that will help you lift and raise your vibration.
We unpack in detail the powerful philosophies of yoga, the soul, trauma, healing and practical techniques to build internal connection, energy and overall re-integration of ourselves as a whole being.
I know, right? Fucking rad.
