Mark McAfee co-founded the world's largest organic raw milk dairy in 1999 named Organic Pastures Dairy. Today, it sells it's raw products safely across the United States in over 900 store locations. The Raw Farm brand estimates to feed over 50,000 families in California, alone. Mark founded the Raw Milk Institute in 2011 to assure that farmers had a resource to assist them in producing very low risk raw milk for their consumers. He is a premed-trained retired EMS Paramedic and acute care medical educator with a background in organic farming, and he has lectured on the safety and gut biome benefits of raw milk at USC, Stanford, UCSB, Rutgers, University of Guelph, UVIC BC Canada, UCLA, CSUF, Chico State and other Universities and medical schools in Australia, USA and Canada. Mark begins by talking about his background in paramedic medicine for about 17 years. It was a great experience for the first chapter of his life, but it was exhausting work. When his grandparents passed away, Mark was ready for a change, so he took over the family farm. For Mark, raw milk is a team effort and a family affair. He says they don't just sell it, they teach it! Since the pandemic, Mark explains that raw milk sales have exploded. In fact, they are the number one milk in all natural food stores in California. As he says, “we have changed history by giving options to dollar voting consumers to be able to make a choice for their health.” There are so many immune system issues here in the US and throughout the world. However Mark explains that raw milk is a powerful food for building up the immune system. Mark says raw milk is one of the most anti-inflammatory foods on the planet. He says we are mammals, and we are defined by breast milk. Breast milk helps the baby organize the gut, nourishes the baby and protects the baby. This is the result of the plethora of bio-actives in the milk, such as enzymes, probiotic bacteria, specialized sugars, stem cells - and more are discovered every year! These same wonderful bio-actives are found in raw milk, unfortunately most of them are destroyed during pasteurization. In the end, Mark talks about the importance of living a life of purpose beyond self. He is a humanitarian with a huge heart. For Mark, it's a we project, not a me project.

Mark is a pioneer in the field of neuroscience founding the term Neuropsychoanalysis. In this very rich discussion Mark shares his insights into ‘where the brain meets the mind’. Previously the neuroscience focus was to study the brain in terms of cognition and behaviour, yet Mark saw that this missed out on what is really astonishing about the brain, that it is an organ of feeling, emotion and subjectivity. Marks research is extensive, and the application to organisations and leadership is discussed in this podcast. For example, through his research he shares his findings of how our brains are conditioned towards play in groups, as well as competition. Play and hierarchy are both part of the same behavioural pattern, where an essential part of play is to act out group dominance. However Mark describes the 60-40 rule, if an individual dominates play for more than 60% of the time, the play ends- it’s not fun anymore! If we look at leadership through this lens, we see how leaders who are too dominant and too controlling soon lose their followership. Mark’s latest book with excellent reviews is Hidden Spring A journey to the source of consciousness BIO Mark Solms is a South African psychoanalyst and neuropsychologist. He pioneers psychoanalytic methods in contemporary neuroscience founding the International Neuropsychoanalysis Society in 2000. He holds many roles including the Chair of Neuropsychology at the University of Cape Town , Founding President of the South African Psychoanalytical Association. and Director of the Neuropsychoanalysis Foundation in New York. In his free time Mark is a passionate wine maker, co-owning a vineyard cooperative.

GENESIS 22-23: In yesterday's reading in Genesis, Abraham deceived Abimelech, Isaak was born, and Sarah demanded that Hagar and her son be sent away— which grieved Abraham. (But remember that story, because Paul uses it as a spiritual metaphor in Galatians 4.) Finally Abimelech visited Abraham, and the two made several formally ratified promises. JOB 12: Yesterday, Zophar said to Job, Job 11:1-2 GNT Will no one answer all this nonsense? Does talking so much put you in the right? 3 Job, do you think we can't answer you? That your mocking words will leave us speechless? 4 You claim that what you say is true; you claim you are pure in the sight of God. 5 How I wish God would answer you! 6 He would tell you there are many sides to wisdom; there are things too deep for human knowledge. God is punishing you less than you deserve. Having accused Job of sin in that way, Zophar then goes on to give this lovely advice: 13 Put your heart right, Job. Reach out to God. 14 Put away evil and wrong from your home. 15 Then face the world again, firm and courageous. 16 Then all your troubles will fade from your memory, MARK 8a: In Mark 7 yesterday, Jesus gave this very significant teaching: 15 GNT There is nothing that goes into you from the outside which can make you ritually unclean. Rather, it is what comes out of you that makes you unclean.” And we heard the way that Jesus gave a difficult test to the Gentile woman. Don’t just assume that Jesus was unfeeling to that woman. There is treasure there to dig for in that enigmatic test! GNT Translation note: 4 His disciples asked him, “Where in this [desolate place//desert] can anyone find enough food to feed all these people?” 17 Jesus knew what they were saying, so he [said to //asked] them, [The reason I suggest this change is because we usually don’t use the word ‘ask’ if the questions are rhetorical in nature. This is a whole series of rebuking rhetorical questions.] NLT Translation note: 8:9 There were about 4,000 [people//men] in the crowd that day, and Jesus sent them home after they had eaten. [The 2007 edition has ‘people’ instead of ‘men’. The newest edition has ‘men’. Since Mat. 15:38 clearly says ‘men’, it is the better to use that word here also. However Mark doesn’t actually specify the gender, because he says, “Those who had eaten … .”]
