Derek is one of the leaders of the Awakened Warriors Men's Group here in Austin. He is also a breathwork facilitator, a wonderful father and as of recently, a psychonaut! 

When Derek and I originally discussed sitting down to record a discussion together, we had planned to talk about how the men's group has been of great value to us, the father-son retreats he will be hosting soon and how he began facilitating breathwork.  However, as fate would have it Derek recently participated in an ayahuasca ceremony and as this is something that very much peaks my interest I simply had to ask him about it.

We begin discussing his interaction with the medicine. We discuss preparation, the intention he had going into the ceremony, as well as the insight he gained from and is now working on implementing. We then discuss his relationship with his son, past relationships and what he has learned from them, what it means to be a man, as well as how he was exposed to breathwork and why he decided to become a breathwork practitioner and coach.

Thank you for taking the time to listen! Feel free to reach out to me if you'd like to collaborate in any way. Also, always open to feedback on how to improve the podcast.
