In this episode of What Are You Made Of?, host Mike "C-Roc" sits down with Eli Buren for a powerful conversation on awareness, presence, and the deeper journey of life. Eli shares how his understanding of what he’s “made of” has evolved—from physical strength and outward accomplishments to the realization that true essence lies in consciousness, the unchanging awareness that remains throughout life’s stages.
Together, they explore the balance between outward success and inward fulfillment, the importance of cultivating presence and openness of heart, and the courage it takes to shift from achievement-driven living to a life rooted in integrity, generosity, and service. Eli also opens up about the teachers who influenced him since 1998, his work guiding high-achieving clients on their inner journey, and the transformative role of embodied practices, including the art of channeling energy into creativity, love, and purpose.
This conversation dives deep into spirituality, leadership, and the human experience—reminding us that success without soul leaves us empty, but living with awareness allows us to fully serve and create with authenticity.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
