    Trauma Healing & Peace Archetypes

    Trauma Healing & Peace Archetypes

    Ethan and I explore the realm of individual, collective and systemic trauma, discussing various practices like Internal Family Systems (IFS) to unburden, heal and serve each other and the world.

    In the second half of the podcast, starting around the 50 minute mark, Ethan explores ten peace archetypes, inviting us to find our river that flows into the ocean of collective liberation.

    I’m so grateful to have Ethan back on the show after a long hiatus, and I hope you find this episode as life-affirming as I have. As always, please consider sharing your feedback, suggestions or comments: possibilitynowpodcast@gmail.com

    Conflict Transformation

    Conflict Transformation

    Ethan discusses his personal insights and learnings around conflict transformation. I feel this episode is Ethan at his very best. There is so much wisdom in his words, often birthed from years of trial and error as well as some powerful personal stories where Ethan had to learn conflict resolution on-the-fly during tense encounters.

    I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did, and as always, please consider sharing your feedback, suggestions or comments: possibilitynowpodcast@gmail.com

    Technology and its impacts

    Technology and its impacts

    Ethan and I explore one of the most controversial and vital topics of our time: technology.

    Ethan embodies a very radical lifestyle in these modern times, living electricity-free and using no digital technology, computers or the internet. We recorded this podcast using his landline telephone, which is the only modern communication device he owns.

    As an apprentice this past summer at the Possibility Alliance, Ethan and I would often discuss the impacts of technology and its role in helping to shape our future. These conversations directly and drastically changed my relationship with technology, so listen with caution: Ethan’s words are very powerful.

    While at times we share different perspectives, I always appreciate how much heart and soul Ethan brings to the discussion. I found it to be a fascinating conversation that could have gone on for hours more, so perhaps there will be a Part 2 in the future. I’d love to hear your feedback and please share any questions you have for Ethan regarding technology and its impacts.

    Love's Fire

    Love's Fire

    Today we’ll be exploring a topic near and dear to Ethan’s heart, which he calls Love’s Fire.

    Love’s Fire can be described in many ways, but the way I think of it is the life-force energy that moves through us when we’re activated by our Soul’s purpose. It’s that feeling that you get when you know that you just have to do something, as if a larger force or higher power is guiding us to act in the service of Love.

    It’s that fire which has guided Ethan for much of his life, and I can think of no better person to discuss this topic.

    As always, we welcome and are grateful for your feedback and suggestions. Enjoy the episode!
