From struggle to stillness. In this episode, I share the story of my recent awakening — what actually happened, how it felt, and what’s shifted since. It followed years of inner work, self-inquiry, and emotional processing, but the moment itself came unexpectedly during a retreat. There was a clear seeing that the sense of separation is an illusion — and with that, a deep peace, simplicity and humour. I talk about the build-up, the walking meditation that cracked it open, and how things have settled in the weeks since.

In this episode, I’m joined by Tom Davies — author of Self Obsession — for a profound exploration of why we suffer and how to stop. We unpack how our fixation on identity — career, relationships, even personality — traps us in anxiety, grief, and striving. Drawing from both Western psychology and Eastern spirituality, Tom offers a clear and compassionate path toward freedom: letting go of false identification and realising what we really are.

• Self-Obsession & Identity: How our suffering arises from clinging to a sense of self that’s always under threat.
• The Trap of Identification: Why tying our worth to external roles or internal narratives makes us vulnerable.
• East Meets West: Blending psychology’s tools with spiritual insight for a more complete approach to healing.
• Tom’s Personal Story: From anxiety and burnout as a medic to insight and clarity through inquiry and presence.
• Meditation & Self-Inquiry: Practices that help dissolve the illusion of a separate, fixed self.
• Impermanence & Clinging: Why resisting change and chasing stability only deepens suffering.
• Beyond Self-Improvement: The trap of always trying to fix ourselves — and the freedom of radical acceptance.
• Non-Dual Awareness: Realising our essence as awareness itself — not a separate self, but Being.

Many Practices, One Presence.

Ben Smith started meditating aged six. I came to spiritual inquiry later. In this conversation, we explore the different paths we've taken — his through years of dedicated meditation, mine through self-inquiry and emotional integration.

We talk about powerful experiences, awakening, the real purpose of spiritual practice, and how it all boils down to living with love, presence and humility. Two different routes up the same mountain.

Three weeks ago, something profound happened. While on retreat (which I will talk about in an upcoming interview), I had what’s often called a kensho — a clear and undeniable seeing into the true nature of reality. It wasn’t a peak state, or a passing insight: it was a shift in identity. In this episode, my wife Alex and I talk about what the shift has been like, from her perspective.

The Spiritual Side of Speaking: How to speak from the body, not the head.

In this episode, I sit down with Caroline Goyder — a globally respected voice expert who’s worked with world leaders, A-list actors, and high-stakes communicators — to dig into what real speaking looks like when presence is the foundation. We explore how your voice is more than technique: it’s a physical expression of breath, emotion, and grounded attention. Caroline shares stories from her work, how she helped people find authentic confidence under pressure, and offers practices to help us speak more from Being than from performance.

In this week's episode I talk to Sarah Tobin, a renowned tapping expert and author of Tapping Into You, to discover how to use this practice in shadow work. This conversation came after Sarah had led me through a tapping session, a powerful experience that led to some really important insights - and made me see just how key these kinds of somatic experiences can be in the healing journey.

Breaking Cycles, Generational Healing and Personal Growth. This week I’m joined by Eldra Jackson, whose story is as powerful as it is inspiring. At 19, Eldra was sentenced to life in prison. What followed was years of violence, solitary confinement and, eventually, the beginning of a journey into deep inner work.

Through the Inside Circle foundation, Eldra found a way to confront his own shadow, take responsibility, and transform his life. Today he helps others do the same – guiding men through the same kind of emotional work that saved him.

We talk about the impact of childhood trauma, the prison system, and what it really means to grow into emotional literacy. Eldra also shares his thoughts on legacy – not in terms of money or status, but in how we live, heal, and pass on something better to the next generation.

From Thinking to Being with the creator of the Self-Inquiry School Sunny Sharma. We discuss how meditation, self-inquiry and mindful living can change how we see ourselves and the world. Sunny shares his journey of finding inner peace, explaining that spiritual practice isn't about reaching a perfect state, but about staying curious and true to yourself. We explore how we can bring deeper awareness into our daily lives, relationships, and work - making spirituality something practical and real, not just an abstract idea.
