New Series - Stealing the Key: Masculinity, Sex & Myth
A multi-faceted embodied exploration into erotic authenticity, integrating shadow, and sexual liberation.
I’m excited to announce a new in-person invitation for men that weaves together various threads of personal and collective inquiry over the last 8 years of my life.
It’s a series of talks & a weekend immersion July 28-30th, co-guided by my dear friend and brother Deus Fortier (who some may remember from my podcast interview with him titled A Psychedelic Guide to Healing Trauma.
Here’s a teaser:
In Robert Bly’s Iron John, the book that ignited a generation of “mens work” much has been said about the reclamation of the Wild Man - the deep undomesticated aspect of the modern male.
And yet in the story, there is a key task the Wild Man offers to the young prince in order to liberate him from his cage. The prince must steal the key from under his mother’s pillow.
What might it mean to steal the key?
What is the relationship between the archetypal mother, a man’s sexuality, and living from erotic authenticity?
This evening will be entertaining and enlightening, part storytelling and part experiential practice.
Upcoming Evenings Vancouver Island:
