  • SPIRITUALITY

A journey into men’s spiritual work, modern masculinity, and the raw truth of what it takes to lead with power and presence. This is for men who have faced their demons and shadows, then committed to do the work that needs to be done to heal or correct what was out of alignment, reclaim their masculinity and rise as leaders, providers, protectors and pillars of their communities. You’ll hear from men deep in their Soul’s work, men who’ve walked through anger, addiction, rejection, and rage and emerged with self-mastery. This is where men connect deeper as awakened and spiritual, modern warriors. Where sacred masculinity is forged through effort and facing his darkness and deciding to light that on fire to forge himself anew. Where every conversation is a fire that incinerates the distortions corrupting the masculine. The world doesn’t need softer men. It needs awakened, dangerous, devoted masculine leaders and it needs it now.

    From Prison to Soul Purpose: How Breathwork Transformed a Fighter’s Life

    Are you ready to reclaim your power, rewrite your story and remember who you truly are? In this powerful conversation on the Dragonfire Men’s Alchemical Path Podcast, Daryl sits down with professional boxer turned breathwork facilitator Josh Fredrickson and what unfolds is a story of his initiation. From addiction, prison, and self-destruction,  to discipline, devotion and deep inner healing. This episode is a raw transmission on what happens when a man chooses to face his pain instead of running from it. Josh shares how unresolved childhood wounds, anger toward his father and years of nervous system dysregulation shaped his life, from meth addiction and crime to becoming an Australian boxing champion. But the real breakthrough didn’t happen in the ring. It happened through his breath. Through the surrender of facing what was. Through forgiveness of those who were doing their best and through coming home to himself. If you’ve been living in survival mode, which many are, or if you feel disconnected from your heart. If you know there’s more available for you than the patterns you keep repeating due to programming you did not choose as a child, then, this conversation will activate something in you. Because being a solid masculine grounded man isn’t just about healing. It’s about remembering your innate strength, your discipline, your sovereignty and your soul.   If this conversation moved you, consider giving us a  like, subscribe, and share it with a brother who needs to hear it so we can reach those men who want to shift their lives.  Also consider dropping a comment below and tell us your biggest takeaway, or what part of your journey you’re ready to shift next.        What This Episode Covers How childhood wounds and the need to be seen can unconsciously drive self-destructive behavior, and how to finally break that cycle The hidden link between anger, addiction, and nervous system dysregulation that so many men are silently living with How breathwork creates profound emotional release and helps you forgive, heal, and rewire old programming Why discipline and keeping your word to yourself builds unshakable inner power The role of brotherhood and safe spaces in preventing isolation, shame, and emotional suppression How to regulate your nervous system in real time using simple breath practices, even during conflict or stress Why surrendering the fight internally can unlock your next level of purpose and clarity   #menswork #breathworkhealing #addictionrecoveryjourney #nervoussystemregulation #innerchildhealing #brotherhood #selfdiscipline #emotionalhealingformen #spiritualmasculinity #warriorpath #holotropicbreathwork #traumahealing #personaldevelopmentformen #consciousmasculine #mensretreat

In this episode of the Dragonfire Men’s Alchemical Path Podcast, I sit down with professional astrologer Luke Balcke to explore the deeper forces shaping our world, our consciousness and our responsibility as sovereign individuals. Luke shares his raw personal journey from addiction, identity collapse and unconscious living, into awakening, astrology and a deeper understanding of cosmic cycles.

Understand why 2026 is a major initiation point for humanity and what conscious leadership actually looks like moving forward.

In today’s episode I sit down with Mitchell Ryan, a transmission mentor who helps men embody their voice, open their hearts, and step into real, grounded masculine leadership. This conversation goes deep into the stuff men are not taught, emotional embodiment, sexual energy, heart-centered truth, and why so many men feel disconnected from their voice, purpose, and power. We break down the conditioning that turns men into “nice guys,” why so many men are terrified of speaking their truth, and how porn, shame, and disconnection hijack masculine life-force. Mitchell shares his personal story of heartbreak, embodiment work, and the exact practices that pulled him out of mental loops and back into his body. In this Episode, you'll: Learn why most men don’t feel heard, and how disconnection from the heart shuts down true expression. Understand how childhood conditioning creates the “nice guy” pattern and why it keeps men weak, resentful, and disconnected from their truth. Hear the real reason porn drains masculine energy and what men are actually searching for when they watch it. Discover why masculine embodiment isn’t about being emotional, it’s about presence, awareness, and clean internal power. Explore how sexual energy fuels leadership, purpose, and the ability to create a life you’re proud of. Learn the difference between speaking from your wounds and speaking from your heart, and how people instantly feel the difference. Get simple practices to reconnect to your heart, calm mental loops, and speak with grounded authority.

About

A journey into men’s spiritual work, modern masculinity, and the raw truth of what it takes to lead with power and presence. This is for men who have faced their demons and shadows, then committed to do the work that needs to be done to heal or correct what was out of alignment, reclaim their masculinity and rise as leaders, providers, protectors and pillars of their communities. You’ll hear from men deep in their Soul’s work, men who’ve walked through anger, addiction, rejection, and rage and emerged with self-mastery. This is where men connect deeper as awakened and spiritual, modern warriors. Where sacred masculinity is forged through effort and facing his darkness and deciding to light that on fire to forge himself anew. Where every conversation is a fire that incinerates the distortions corrupting the masculine. The world doesn’t need softer men. It needs awakened, dangerous, devoted masculine leaders and it needs it now.
