#234 Forgiveness is Self-Care and Choosing to Respond, Not React with Damian Cole
SuperFeast Podcast
[TRIGGER WARNING]: This episode includes discussion of a traumatic car crash and associated trauma (TBI). Listener discretion is advised, especially for those with past experiences related to car crashes. Alright everybody, that was a ripping chat with Damian Cole, who is an absolute legend and hammering towards his destiny. The core thread we pulled on was the difference between external labels—like his name, Damian or Damo—and what's actually going on inside, which led us into this heavy territory about whether love or blood ties should carry more gravitas when talking about family...

#232 The Magical Gap: Why Our Ego, Politics, and Dogma Block True Healing with Peter Galle
SuperFeast Podcast
The chat really dives into a deep philosophical and super-practical look at healing, all sparked by Peter Galle's firsthand experience with a pretty serious health hurdle—a herpetic cold sore infection in his eye. He ran the full gamut, hitting it with conventional treatments like Valtrex alongside a ton of classic antivirals like Coptis (Huanglian) and Skullcap. But nothing was truly curative or stopping the progression of the ulcer. He was ready to give up and hit the emergency room for steroids when, as a last-ditch "recesses of my mind" shot, he took a large dose of St. John's wort...

#231 What's the Wall? Removing the Roadblocks to True, Deep-Seated Healing with Eddie Enever
SuperFeast Podcast
Boom. So, we dove in deep with Eddie Enever on the brutal reality of chronic disease, specifically cancer. The big kicker is that it's not just a physical problem, is it? He frames it—and this is a real stake in the ground—as a "disease of disconnection," forcing you right up against your own mortality. Having walked that gnarly path himself, from Stage 1 all the way to Stage 4, Eddie's insight as a practitioner is monumental. The absolute linchpin, the central theme we hit on, is agency—getting your sovereignty back. It’s about taking total, personal control over your...

#230 Results, Not Excuses: Navigating Regulation and the Limits of Science in Natural Medicine with Matte Legge
SuperFeast Podcast
The conversation with formulator Matt Legge pulls back the curtain on the supplement industry, framing it as a metaphysical struggle between genuine intent and the corporate Machine. Matt’s journey is a hero’s exile from structures like Metagenics, which prioritize efficiency over the soul of the product. This machine churns out soulless, AI-generated formulas that chase "white space," utterly neglecting the deep clinical insight of Root Cause Analysis—a meditation of the pulse. The founder’s sacrifice creates the Pearl of Reciprocity, the organizational soul. The primary struggle is...

#229: Herbal Wisdom, Taoist Principles & Essential Travel Health: The Classical Medicine Guide with Ann Cecil-Sterman
SuperFeast Podcast
What a profound conversation this was—a real unpacking of principles, where the philosophical meets the deeply practical. The core of this whole thing, as we dug into with Ann Cecil-Sterman, revolves around the true action of herbs, which—from the Taoist lineage we follow—comes down to pure taste, not just some chemical breakdown. It’s that deeper "flavor sensing in the stomach." My journey with Superfeast has been about living the great Yin-Yang puzzle: holding the intense contrast between deep Taoist tradition and the necessary reductionist language for Western...

#228: Unveiling the Power of Dream Practice with Clarissa Gunawan
SuperFeast Podcast
If you’ve been here for a while, you know my whole focus is on returning to the roots of a path—an integrated, no-nonsense approach that actually holds up in the modern world. This conversation with Clarissa Gunawan goes straight to the core of a practice we’re all doing anyway, every single night: dreaming. We move well beyond the new-age, “superhero powers” version of lucid dreaming I experimented with in my twenties, and land firmly in the grounded, embodied terrain of Daoist dream work. Clarissa lays out why this isn’t abstract or esoteric fluff; it’s a non-negotiable tool...

#226 Leadership as Seership: Embodiment, Ancestry, and the Alchemy of Culture with Velan Cadden
SuperFeast Podcast
In this captivating discussion, Mason and Velan dive deep into leadership—moving past old-school hierarchies to a more custodial vibe, seeing an organization as a soul, not just a machine. Velan brings in seership—reading a culture through patient observation and awakened senses, like a mycelial network. They touch on elemental forces (earth, water, fire, air) as leadership teachers—especially water as a memory keeper. Leadership, they say, should be about self-education, letting things flow like living systems, and shedding those colonial mindsets that cut us off from our senses. They...
