Podcast appearances and mentions of elana meta

Today’s topic is a challenging one. A few weeks ago, numerous allegations surfaced regarding sexual misconduct by two prominent male musicians in the festival world: Lorin Ashton (ie Bassnectar) and Nahko, who I interviewed on this podcast last month. At the time of the allegations I decided to remove that podcast from my catalogue pending an accountability process. To make sense of this cultural moment, I invited my good friend and mentor in men’s work, Ian Mackenzie, back to the podcast to explore the theme of sexual predation through an archetypal lens. On the show, Ian offers a mythopoetic understanding of patterns of abuse in our culture specifically through the archetype of the Addicted Lover. We discuss restorative justice and the challenges of applying it to cases like this. We talk about our modern lack of the village, and the importance of initiating young men to understand the consequences of their actions. We discuss Cancel Culture as a kind of exiling that doesn’t serve to heal the wounds of predation or allow our communities to truly learn from our mistakes. Finally we look at the parts of ourselves that we wish to exile and the perils of losing intimacy with our darkest places. This conversation is simply two men wondering aloud about the causes of and solutions to sexual abuse. This is by no means an exhaustive analysis and we welcome any feedback to our conversation in the Life is a Festival Facebook group. There are also two prominent women in our community, Tina Malia and Elana Meta, who have written very powerful and public Facebook posts on this subject which are linked to in the show notes. Ian Mackenzie is the host of a stellar podcast called the Mythic Masculine. He is a documentary filmmaker whose works include Amplify Her, Scared Economics, Occupy Love, and the upcoming film Love School about the Tamera community in Portugal.

Adore this woman. Jeez... 28th and a wild child, listening to her body's wisdom, getting the deliciousness of our sensuality and creativity that's not about sex or penetration... yet VERY sexy and empowering. She's the founder of Wild Vessel and just listened to Kali embracing Fierce Love to move out on her own. She walks her talk, sharing vulnerably about her journey, reminded that if it's not wobbly, you're probably not living ;-) YES! There were so many profound moments in this interview... one particularly about when we make our own pleasure and being supported our priority (I think she worded it differently... please listen xox) that only THEN can we be a beneficial overflowing resource to all... I like to say it, When mama's happy, everybody's happy. Yet it's the same thing... when we can let go of the fear, tension, shame and hesitance and really ask and RECEIVE what we desire, then from our fullness we are the hugest contribution to all that we love. Yet OMG that takes courage doesn't it? And humility. It's takes our full embodied selves. And it's what's being called for on the planet.

If you haven’t heard of Elana Meta you soon will.
