"When you shine... what part of you must die to be witnessed?"

In this unfiltered, myth-rich conversation, I join the brilliant minds behind the Sleep Study Podcast to explore the psychological, spiritual, and emotional terrain behind Sleep Token, shadow integration, and the archetype of the Wounded Performer.

We go far deeper than music. This is a journey through Jungian shadow work, anima possession, and the psychic cost of creation. It's about how modern content creators—especially men—are called into the arena to be sacrificed on the altar of attention, and what it takes to survive the process while still becoming whole.

🧠 What We Unpack:
  • Why the music of Sleep Token is more than a sound — it's a summoning

  • How the Anima seduces the soul of the artist and turns admiration into addiction

  • The truth behind fan worship, creator burnout, and the internal fragmentation of performance

  • Jungian alchemy as a roadmap to transmute your wounds into creative gold

  • Christ, Odin, and Vessel — the shared myth of the sacrificed god

  • Why creators must die to be free, and how to resurrect on their own terms

  • Tools for shadow integration, embodiment, and becoming your own mythic Self

This episode is not entertainment. It is initiation.

Cardiac Cowboys

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.
