Since 2001, he’s been weaving together strands of ethical marketing, Waldorf School education, a history in the performing arts, local culture work, anti-globalization activism, an interest in his ancestral, traditional cultures, community building and supporting...

Mythosomatic guide Ian MacKenzie explains why men get psychologically stuck at the hero archetype, what the older, pre-heroic masculine archetypes of the shaman and trickster actually offer, and why the absence of initiatory culture is shaping so much of what we see in men today.

In this episode, Lian and Ian explore the deep masculine as a layer of archetypal soil that predates the hero, one that men in the West have largely lost access to,...

🚨Please note: there’s a moment in this conversation that contains reference to abuse in childhood Men’s work facilitator Hugh Newton names the predator in men as a genuinely dangerous survival force, how it drives manipulation, coercion, and harm when unrecognised, and how men can learn to spot it before it damages others and themselves. Hugh’s life began in the midst of a war in Zimbabwe, then known as Rhodesia, and growing up in such harsh conditions meant that he had to work hard to overcome his complex childhood trauma. He began his self development journey over 30 years ago, and...

info_outlineIn this week’s show Lian is joined by Dr. Aumatma Simmons. Dr. Aumatma is a double board-certified Naturopathic Endocrinologist revolutionizing fertility care. After witnessing countless couples struggle with invasive treatments, she pioneered a functional approach that addresses root causes - without drugs or financial strain. She's helped hundreds of "medically hopeless" couples conceive naturally.
Beyond her clinical practice, Dr. Aumatma has trained hundreds of physicians, authored a best-selling book, is the host of an award-winning podcast, and created Madre Fertility—the world's first Smart Fertility Analysis. Featured across major networks as the leading Holistic Fertility Expert, she's expanding her "fertile systems" approach to help professionals create abundance without burnout.
In this episode, Lian and Dr. Aumatma explore fertility through a lens that most women are never shown. They touch on the moment her body refused pregnancy in a relationship that looked perfect on paper, the years of painful cycles that only made sense in hindsight, and the cultural myths that tell women their bodies are failing when they are often communicating something vital.
From there, the conversation turns to what fertility is really responding to… safety, stress, sleep, hormones, relationships, and whether a woman’s life is in alignment. They look at how birth control can mask deeper issues, why endometriosis so often goes undiagnosed for years, and how menstrual cycles act as early messengers long before fertility becomes a concern.
Listen if you have ever had your symptoms dismissed, worried you were “too old”, or sensed that your body was telling the truth before your life caught up.
We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.
What you’ll learn from this episode:
-
How fertility fear is shaped by age myths, and what changes when you look at real hormonal signals instead
-
Why painful or irregular cycles are often early warning lights, not inconveniences to suppress
-
The way safety, nervous system regulation, sleep, community with other women, and nourishment quietly shape fertility and overall health long before conception is even on the horizon
