Hey folks, here is an early morning guided meditation from you before I take a hiatus from the podcast for a few weeks to reintegrate from my dark retreat.

I wanted to share this with you while I still feel I have a foot in the other world. Find a comfy spot, close your eyes, and join me as we drop down into your heart and the depth of your being.

We’ll be back late September with more incredible episodes for you.

Please share this with one person in your life as well!

Cheers,

Traver

Stephen Jenkinson is a treasure, he’s also a three time Uncivilized Podcast guest, now speaking to us from a difficult place. Usually the man sitting with the dying, he’s now sitting with death himself.

In this conversation I wanted to ask Stephen all of the no bullshit questions I could, giving him no softballs and going straight into the heart of the matter. As he always does, he took my questions and made both poetry and wisdom out of them.

Truth be told, I had to breathe my way through this interview so as not to break down in tears myself. It’s raw and it’s real.

This episode is about life, sickness, and facing death in an UNcivilized manner

Cheers,

Traver

This is Stephen Jenkinson’s fourth time joining us on The UNcivilized Podcast—and each time, he leaves a mark.

Kati Bird is the very first person to teach me about Shibari, the Japanese bondage system. She now travels the world leading workshops, working with couples and individuals and has zero apologies about a life lived way outside the box.

We sit down and dive right into how Kati went from being a wilderness guide to becoming one of the most sought after Shibari teachers in the world. How she manages a life on the road and most importantly about the incredible ways she teaches people to connect deeply to themselves, navigate their traumas, and express themselves in ways they never thought possible, all with rope.

This episode is about trust, human connection, and living a truly UNcivilized life.

Cheers,

Traver

Back for his second round on The UNcivilized Podcast, the man who trains Special Forces Operators on how to use chaos to their advantage and tap into their instinct and intuition. Don’t worry, his work is applicable to all — even the school children he teaches his programs to.

Angus Fletcher is the author of Primal Intelligence and a friend of ours at UNcivilized. In this conversation we dive into the future with AI, how to be harder to kill, and why having the ability to rapidly create a plan is the difference maker whether you’re hunting down an enemy, trying to grow your company to seven figures, or get along with your partner.

This is a fast paced episode filled with gems, so hang on to your hat!

Cheers,

Traver

Miles rote started his career as United States Marine, then became a Police Officer, then a Private Investigator, then a yoga teacher, and now runs one of the most successful book publishing companies in the world. Like me, he’s also a giant AI dork.

His life story is twisty, turny, and incredibly wild. We talk about choosing a path for your life, knowing when to make a hard pivot when your intuition tells you, why going all in is the only way to go — and stick around for the end of the episode when Miles openly shares about finding out the man he was told was his father, ended up not being so.

This episode is about overcoming obstacles, dealing with pain, and living a truly UNcivilized life.

Cheers,

Traver

Imagine dating in your twenties, getting married, and now in your mid forties or fifties, you’re back in the dating world — and it’s a mess!

In this conversation I chat with a woman who has built one of the largest match making and dating coaching businesses in the world. Hell, match.com tried to buy her last business!

While we joke and laugh through it all we do get down to what works and what doesn’t work for this age group. Andrea’s book The Second Act is written for singles over forty but is now being read by twenty and thirty somethings as well.

I had a blast with this conversation and am excited to share it with you.

Cheers,

Traver

Yep, you read the title correctly. This week I sit down with a young man from Colorado Springs who is planning on running 500 miles with a team of doctors and experts — all the while consuming LSD and psilocybin.

Wild to say the least. We jam on what originally created the idea for this project, how it will be managed, and what Dante hopes comes from it.

This episode is short and straight to the point.

Cheers,

Traver

If you’re a new dad, or know a new dad this episode is for you.

Hell, even if you’re not one, this is an honest conversation about the massive initiation that is fatherhood.

In this episode I sit down with my good friend and brother Dr. Long Distance Love Bombs and chat with him about all the ways, both amazing and challenging, that his life has changed since becoming a dad this past year.

We talk anger, depression, jubilance and of course — the pressure. Jeremy opens up completely in a candid and vulnerable way about his whole experience.

I loved this conversation and am excited to share it with you. Please share this with a new or expecting father in your life.

Cheers,

Traver
