Ep 42 ~ The Future of Love: Shadow Work, Presence & The Art of Relating with Nathan Coury
The Program
What if the biggest problem in modern relationships isn't men... or women... but the way we've forgotten how to relate?
.
This week's conversation is one of my favourites.
Joining me is Nathan Coury - entrepreneur, men's work facilitator, ISTA organiser, restaurant owner and someone deeply devoted to understanding human connection.
.
Together we explore:
• Why shadow work isn't about fixing yourself
• The surprising truth about curiosity
• Why relationships expose every unconscious part of us
• Masculine & feminine beyond social media clichés
• Spirituality, tantra and shamanism
• Why presence is the greatest relationship practice
• The epidemic of extraction over service
• The future of love and conscious partnership
• Learning to soften instead of harden
• Sugar & Spice (and why that became our nickname)
This episode is all about remembering our humanity.
.
If you've ever wondered why relationships feel harder than ever currently....
Tune in, you are in for a treat!
