We're back. We're back and we have the return of the amazing. I want to say the thrice great,
but it's only the twice great. It's the second time Peter Krohn's been on this podcast. He
was a speaker at our most recent Fit for Service event down in Lockhart Farm. Peter's been
a friend of mine for the last few years and he has been an amazing teacher for the last few years, and he has been an amazing teacher for the last two years.
And he taught a workshop with the agreement from my brother, Eric Godsey, another one of the coaches
and multi-time guest on this podcast. The agreement of Eric Godsey did in front of the entire 200 plus person crowd, a little breakdown, Varick's
childhood story.
And so much of that resonated with me.
And I knew we had a podcast coming at some point over the weekend that I actually wanted
this for myself.
And some of you may wonder why I would choose to dig into the shit on the podcast, but it's fucking powerful.
And the reason it's powerful
is because a lot of us share similar stories.
I felt at first listening to Peter detail Eric Godsey.
And as he did that, certain parts of me were unlocked.
Certain parts of me really resonated with that story
and certain parts of me were able to let go of that story.
So it is my hope,
even though we all come from different backgrounds, that some parts of this story will resonate with you. And
if they don't, totally cool. But hopefully it can give you some of the tracking material necessary
to actually look into your own life and see what stories you've created based on how your little child was treated
and based on what experiences you had as a kid.
What story did that create that you still live to this day?
And the odds are there is a story.
The odds are very fucking high that there's still a story.
So if you get real honest with yourself,
and as Paul Cech says, you stop bullshitting yourself,
I think you'll be
able to dig in a little deeper. And then hopefully as I'm doing, I haven't mastered it by any fucking
means, not in a week. Hopefully you can begin to replace that story. Uh, we dive into my story.
Uh, there's, it's hard for me to talk about it still. And, um, and it's illuminating. And in the end of it,
pretty fucking rad because I was able to replace that story. So I love Peter Crone. He is absolutely
incredible. Uh, we'll have all of his links in the show notes. He's running a couple of different
tier programs for people to, to work with them online. And I think that's absolutely fantastic.
Be sure to check him out on Aubrey's podcast. He's jumped on for his fourth one here. If you haven't heard him on my show before, check that out. That was pre-pandemic,
a few years back that we got together at his house in LA. Since then, he has got some land in NorCal
and moved off to Lake Tahoe for not very obvious reasons. And he's just such a unique, amazing person.
He's got a brilliant voice.
I think I remember him saying,
it's just a boy from Dover on that first episode,
and that's always stuck in my mind.
Just a great guy who I absolutely adore
and will have back on this podcast.
There's a number of ways you can support this show.
One, share it with a friend.
Share it with a friend who maybe has a similar story
or background or somebody that you think could benefit from it. And leave us a five-star
rating. Organifi, the homies at Organifi are still doing it. They started this at the end of last
year. They're giving you my favorite supplement. And one lucky winner, which is not random,
it's somebody who leaves a five-star rating with one or two ways the show's helped you out in life. If it's written well and from the heart,
doesn't have to be fucking poetic, but any way that the show has helped you out in life
with a five-star rating on iTunes, Spotify, wherever you can leave a rating, that will be
looked at and it will be counted based on how good that is. And if you're picked, then you get
free shit from Organifi, which is awesome because they're one of the best sponsors I've ever had.
And they're certainly one of the best supplement companies on the planet.
They make amazing stuff and everything they make works.
Last but not least,
support our sponsors.
They make this show fiscally possible.
Each one of them has been hand selected by myself or my main man,
David Desmond,
who I still have fucking veto power with and have turned down quite a few
would be decents,
but I only want the best. And so I'll try on every single one of these.
And really, once I understand it for myself, then I'm going to say yes to that.
So when you purchase something from our sponsors, it directly helps me or indirectly helps me,
but it does make this show possible. It directly makes the show possible. So thank you for doing
that. Thank you for supporting our sponsors. We have a brand new sponsor today. It's somebody that I first heard about on Paul Chek's podcast.
And these are the guys at On a Lemon Water. I heard Dolph, who's one of their founders on
Living 4D, breaking down structured water and was just blown away by it. I ordered one of their
sticks immediately, which has their mother culture water, the mother structured water, and you just stir
any water that you have. Could be a five-gallon drum, could be a 20-ounce bottle. There's a
certain length of time that you go based per liter. Mario outlined that in the podcast we
did a couple of weeks ago. It's about 15 seconds per liter. So if you've got a big-ass one-gallon
Yeti like I do, being on the farm all day, do the math. That's one minute of stirring.
It might seem like a hassle, but you will taste the difference. It is visc... How do I say that?
Viscerally? They're viscerally different. The viscosity actually changes in the water
as it structures. And while you're spinning your stick, hopefully putting some good prayers and
good juju into it, which does make a fucking difference, you will see the water
start to change as it harmonizes and structures. And it's pretty fucking unbelievable, but try it
for yourself and I guarantee you it's going to work. More importantly, listen to the podcast
that I just did with Mario because since listening to them originally, since I listened to Dolph
originally on Living4D, a lot of science has come out with how on a limb structured water pertains to the human body
how it pertains to the soil how it pertains to plant life and everything in between so if you're
ready to unlock your true potential of your body your mind i'm introducing to you on a limb a

I just got their whole house unit. Once I have that on, I'll be talking about it, but the Onolema structure stick is fucking must-have. Absolutely check it out at their site, coherent-water.com and use KKP at checkout. Next, we're brought to you by my
homies at Organifi in partnership with Mind Pump Media. The homies at Mind Pump and Organifi have
teamed up to create a glyphosate residue-free product called Peak Power. It's made for focus,
performance, and hydration. It's best served cold. It comes in a brilliant... It's pretty cool. I mean,
I love this shit. It comes in a nice little bag that is a lovely green.
It's very inviting.
And in this bag, what you'll find is a lot of different wonderful elements, some of which
are adaptogens, some of which are performance enhancing, and they have a focus and performance
blend as well as a hydration blend.
So this is going to be best used pre-workout, intra-workout.
It's going to be best used before podcasting, before you have a presentation, before studying,
before anything that you find to be most important, critical.
I find the best use of Peak Power.
Check it out.
It's going to help you in all the ways because there's nootropics in here.
There's hydration elements in here and a small amount of caffeine, just 100 milligrams, just to give you that little extra spark. So don't take it too late.
But any point before three o'clock, this stuff is phenomenal. It tastes great and it couldn't
have been better designed. That's why it's from the boys at Mind Pump as well as Organifi. Check
it all out at Organifi.com slash KKP. That is O-R-G-A-N-I-F-I.com and enter code KKP at checkout for 20% off everything in the store.
We're also brought to you today by my homies at Lucy.co.
Look, we're all adults here, and I know some of us choose to use nicotine to relax, focus, or just unwind after a long day. Lucy is a modern oral nicotine company
that makes nicotine gum, lozenges, and pouches for adults
who are looking for the best,
most responsible way to consume their nicotine.
It's a new year.
Why not start it out by switching to a new nicotine product
that you can feel good about?
I've been using Lucy for a few years now.
It is an excellent, excellent selection
to get very clean sources of nicotine, which is a nootropic.
It's probably the best nootropic, and it stacks well with other nootropics, as well as with
caffeine and stimulants and anything else you would do to alter your neurochemistry
in the best way possible.
One of my favorite things about nicotine products is that they work very well for a short period
of time, about 45 minutes to an hour, and then you can go back to sleep.
So you can take it at night. Whereas other products that contain caffeine, that's going
to have a much longer window. I can't take caffeine after 3 p.m. Honestly, I don't take
caffeine after noon. It's a morning thing and it works well in the morning, but nicotine is the
thing that gets me through the rest of my day. And it stacks well with coffee. It stacks well
with all the other things. When I want that little extra oomph, I look to lucy.co. Get 20% off of any order they have at the store. That is
lucy.co and get 20% off everything they have in the store using code KKP at checkout. Oh, and I
got the disclaimer here, Lociento. Warning, this product contains nicotine. Nicotine is an addictive
chemical. Remember, if you're interested in a better way to use nicotine,
visit lucy.co and be sure to use that promo code KKP.
Last but not least are the homies at hvmn.com slash KKP.
I recently had Michael Brandt on the podcast,
one of their founders who is absolutely incredible.
And I'm getting their second founder on the podcast very shortly,
Jeff Wu.
Both are Stanford grads Jeff Wu. Both are
Stanford grads with honors. Both are deep in the game in the science of human performance.
They have a $6 million active contract with the US Special Operations Command. It is next level
shit that we're talking about here. We often hear that fasting and exercise are good for the brain.
One reason why is that when we push our body to its metabolic limits, we create nature's super fuel, ketones. Ketone IQ delivers clean fuel that can cross the blood-brain
barrier, supplying your brain and body with sustained energy, mental focus, and sharpness,
putting you in a flow lasting for hours. I absolutely love this stuff. It is something
that works whether I'm in ketosis or not. It certainly helps that I do a fasting mimicking diet twice a year.
That allows my body to become a multi-fuel burner.
It allows those ketones to know exactly where they're going when they enter my body.
But whether you've ever been in a state of ketosis or you've never fasted, it's going
to work.
It's going to work no matter what.
And the longer you take it, the better it works.
That's because your body will adapt. It'll become keto adapted. And as it adapts to using those
ketones, it's going to know exactly what to do with them. As that happens, you will increase
energy on every single system. What does that talk about? Well, I'm talking about muscle energy,
where when I'm working out, whether it's endurance or needing the extra reps, or I'm going the extra
round, those later endurance rounds that count the most,
I'm going to have energy for that because of those ketones.
It also means increased mental energy, right?
We know that there's more mitochondria in the brain
and the heart than anywhere else in the body.
That's going to help me with cardio,
but it's also going to help me with cognitive function.
Super important.
Ketone IQ is the very best in the game.

All right, we're good. We're ready to rock and roll. Let's go. It's been too fucking long since
we've had the chance to podcast with each other.'s been a minute i was trying to think because that house when you came to mine that was 17 or 18 no maybe 18 or 19 but either
way it's still like freaking two plus three years yeah and and especially in the last two three years
with everything that's kind of gone on well fill me in what's been happening well you know
i'm not aware you said
it best you're like it turns out there's some fucking evil people in the world right yes yeah
and thank you right because so many people in your field and life coaching or in anything else
you'd fucking call it whether you're spiritual or anything on gaia you know for that matter
yeah even though they've got some deep state videos and shit like that for the most part
it seems like they lean into only looking at the light
and not being able to see the dirt and the grime of the fullness of our experience here.
So that was fucking refreshing and fresh air for sure.
To hear people like myself speak about that?
Yeah, I think it was quite shocking for me because i as compassionate as i like to be and understand that full scope of humanity and that
like truly everyone's doing the best they can within the level of awareness they have
you know i'd always like attributed even like a man who's a bit abusive to a spouse or a girlfriend
which i don't condone and it's pretty abhorrent. But nonetheless, if you knew everything that that man had been through, and perhaps had been reprimanded
consistently by his own dad or hit, sort of a language he learned that then he superimposed
onto that next generation, right? It doesn't, again, doesn't condone it, but at least you have
some compassion, you can understand it, right? So it sort of falls more under the auspices of a little bit of trauma and
someone just trying to figure it out but then you look at what's been going on i'm like no no they
know what they're doing and it's literally just bad it's like yeah that falls into a different
bracket i think of something sort of satanic and evil and yeah it's it's a anti-life right evil the
palindrome of live and uh you know as paul check says you know it's just moving Yeah, it's anti-life, right? Evil, the palindrome of live. And as Paul Cech says, it's just
moving against, if it's not, if it's life affirmative, it's pro
life, pro live. And if it's life denying or freedom denying
or anything that's associated with that, then you'd say that that's evil. It's a fair definition.
It doesn't mean they need to have a mustache and twist that shit behind some closed door
somewhere. Or a trident.
Exactly, with a little red tail.
A spade on the end.
I think for all of us, and even the likes of this group here, you, Aubrey the tribe, and special collection of humans,
I think we're all kind of a little bit both in shock, but equally, like anything,
I feel there's a response that is happening
that itself is quite beautiful, right?
Even in the face.
If we look at what even I was doing with people yesterday,
one-on-one, bringing what we could say is their version of evil,
albeit perhaps in a container that is better intended.
People are trying to live good lives, trying to do the right thing. And perhaps through their own subconscious oblivion,
they're self-sabotaging or maybe saying hurtful things, but it's not malintent, right?
But then if you look at that individualistically, and then you take that collectively, it feels like, wow, we, big W, humanity,
are doing shadow work right now.
And this is that cancer tumor that was over there in the corner,
apparently Washington, D.C.
And it's coming to the surface.
We need some serious chemo yeah and that's that's it
we're planting seeds literally and figuratively we're getting our hands in the dirt literally
and figuratively right we're weeding our own gardens yeah uh literally and figuratively and
i think that's such a it's a palpable thing that i gravitate towards and at the same time
there has been a large,
what appears to be a large group of people
that still have blinders on.
That are still like,
hey, that was one thing.
Now we got to worry about Ukraine.
Forget this other shit.
And it's like, do we now?
Do we just pass that,
sweep that under the rug?
Yeah.
So with that,
and I do want to talk about,
I want to dive in if we can.
Sure.
You might have to bill me on Venmo, but I want a free lesson here.
It's going to be under 600 bucks, otherwise we have to report it.
Exactly, or 800,000 IRS soldiers are going to show up at your fucking house well-armed.
Yeah, you went through, and my brother Godsey, I'm sure, would have no problem talking about this,
but I'm not going to dive into his story.
His story paralleled a lot with my story, and it was very illuminating.
And so I'd love to dive into that because I think I can link the conversation we had
yesterday with some of my still lingering fears around the world itself that we dove
into right from the jump.
Yeah, yeah.
Can we go there?
Of course.
Whatever you want, my friend.
I'm here for you. So I didn't develop a stutter like godsey was very open about it yeah but
obviously developed quite a bit from my childhood yeah you know so um some of the parallels without
diving into history i just forget parallels personal path um my parents fought a lot they would get like you know like two rams butting
heads screaming in each other's face fucking plates flying window you know telephone flying
through the through the door from a very young age and it felt like i had to walk on eggshells
quite a bit because i knew they were taking time bombs they were the taking time bombs and i
really felt like just a real sense of unease.
Yeah.
And I didn't feel safe.
For sure.
I didn't feel safe from a young age.
Yeah.
And you cleverly and fucking hilariously pointed out,
after you were talking with Godsey, you're like, yeah, look at Kyle.
A man that size with martial arts and guns background, he feels safe.
And I was like, fuck, dude.
Fucking just expose him naked standing there,
you know?
Yeah.
And so there is so much truth in that.
And I appreciate your humor and your directness.
Cause it fucking,
it's,
it sings right to me.
Good.
But looking at that and we can keep going further into that or,
you know?
Yeah.
No,
I mean,
look,
you're,
you're such a sweetheart.
We sadly haven't spent as much time together as I'd like,
and maybe we can change that moving forward.
But yeah, I think one of the big compliments I certainly got
from a lot of people yesterday is one, my precision,
but then two, the humor and the levity that I'm able to bring
around a subject that could be like a real owie for people.
You know, it's like certainly the people I spoke to,
the woman with her issue and what she was sharing,
it's a pretty dramatic scenario, right?
And yet to be able to disarm that.
So equally when I pointed out to you with love,
but also like I can see that.
And so I'm glad you're bringing it to the forefront.
Yeah, I mean, a kid, regardless of aptitude, intelligence,
or now size as you as a man,
like your internal experience being in an
environment like that, that is hostile, mercurial, and unpredictable is going to leave a kid in a
state of terror, just period. It doesn't matter, right? So some of the ways that you've adapted,
obviously, is as you said, like the martial arts, the fighting, like the size, the weights, the guns, the methods of protection, right, we could say. So there's different ways that we can
arm ourselves. And it's totally fine. You know, like there's a lot of people out there. I mean,
like Bruce Lee, for example, probably like weighs literally half than you, but yeah,
obviously knew what he was doing. But I would assert that it was more a pursuit
out of perhaps passion, curiosity, commitment, discipline.
Whereas what we want to look at
is the how somebody's garnering protection, right?
So what would you say,
where did you start that journey for yourself
of learning to protect yourself?
And it may even have been in that house, right?
Because it might've looked like,
I can't fucking do a roundhouse kick,
but I can hide in my closet as a kid.
The home, I just shut down.
I would go as far inside as I possibly could.
You ever see the movie, Get Out?
When she hits him with like this fucking hypnosis
and he goes like he's falling through a black portal
and the screen gets smaller and smaller of his vision.
Oh no, I haven't.
That reminds me of two things.
One, ketamine.
And two, what I would do when shit hit the fan.
I would just fucking slide as many layers inward as I could.
Yeah.
In solitude.
Got it.
You know, like I'm not here.
I'm a rock, I'm a rock, I'm a rock, that kind of shit.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And from what age do you remember, like approximately?
I know it was earlier because I have, you know,
not great memories from when I was pretty young in older houses,
like when I was two or three.
Yeah.
But consistently that was my mode by five or six.
Yeah.
And in particular, we moved back to the Bay Area from Oregon.
Actually, it might have been in a different part of the Bay,
but we moved to a house in Sunnyvale that I remember very well from that point on,
which was six years old.
And yeah, in that house, it was very much just
tunnels, a tiny condominium. Interestingly enough, like just walking, like if I walked too heavy,
you know, that was an issue, not throwing fucking phones through the wall was a noise complaint,
you know, but like how heavy I walked, little things like that. And you talk about the things we call in to match,
like an abusive boyfriend or something like that.
I remember right around that age, six and seven,
I started either having to run from bullies
or turn around and fight them physically at that age.
That's when I started fighting.
At school, yeah.
Yeah, at school school on the way home
school right that kind of thing and that lasted that lasted all the way up until
high school-ish a little bit college yeah yeah so amazing and did you have siblings I have one
sister who was a year younger and what was her experience like what did you feel the need to
protect her did she get exposed or yeah she was exposed to it um jealously i felt like i got more of the the brunt of the blow than her yeah um but
i still you know i'm so was so connected to her and still am that when i'd see you know her
it's okay yeah i get it i get it it get it. For a little boy, that's a big responsibility. Yeah.
Yeah.
What came to mind as you were thinking about that?
Just seeing her cry at dinner.
Yeah. And this is around the same age, six, seven and on for a few years.
Yeah.
So you'd be at dinner and she's just like, your sister's just crying.
And what's your experience?
Wanting to help her, but also retreating.
Yeah.
So what would that give you as an experience?
How would you feel as that little boy?
Helpless.
Yeah.
Totally powerless, right?
Yeah.
So that's a big component of your makeup
is that feeling of hopelessness.
Same as like coming home.
I mean, you obviously learned to protect yourself.
Where else have you felt that feeling of hopelessness?
College, I felt it in relationship.
My first long-term relationship.
Okay.
Yeah.
And how so?
What did that um it felt like the more i was myself meaning
drunk and obnoxious yeah the less that was received got it and um i identified with like
my true self is when i'm happy and drunk and fucking wiling and being crazy yeah um and that
would obviously push her away yeah so it just felt like i would not
i wasn't going to be loved right that's how it felt now why would you say the drunk like that
was more yourself like how did you categorize that as more you i i had trouble really being in my own
skin you know so i was a class clown i wanted center of attention. When I was away from home,
it kind of reversed.
Okay.
And didn't mind talking shit to a teacher's face
or to a principal,
even if it got me kicked out of the class.
It was dead silent at home.
Total revolt in school.
And yeah, I'm not sure where to keep going with that the how long did that relationship go
six and a half years oh so it's quite long and then how would that look like what would
be the energy you're receiving that was like unacceptable just uh retreat you know didn't
want to return calls those kind of things okay i was also on quite a few bad drugs at that point.
ASU, number one party school in the nation.
Coke, ecstasy, playing football, whatever the fuck I wanted, that thing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And bad pharmaceuticals too.
So it was a real yo-yo of neurochemistry and everything that I've learned about now,
lack of sleep, all that stuff.
Right, yeah.
The hopelessness, as it shows up
and can show up in the past few years is in looking at the world at large and seeing
where do we fucking go from here yeah how come i'm the only one seeing this and maybe peter and
fucking charles eisenstein and a few other great thinkers that i admire yeah but the masses don't
want to look at it and can't see it.
Yeah, no, absolutely. No, this is beautiful. And it really ties into that whole, the I'm not safe
is one of the contexts for sure that you live in. But I'd say for you, now that I know a few
more details about your childhood, which I really appreciate you sharing, is it's a little bigger
for you. It's a little like the I'm not safe is very subjective, personalized.
And we can see that little boy walking around on eggshells,
even based on the fact that you're making too much noise,
like similar to Eric, right?
Like just like he's so petrified
to even wake up his dad for fear of the ramifications
of getting disciplined or hit or whatever, right?
Same for you.
Yours is a notch above, right?
So you're sitting at the dining table,
your sister's crying.
So now it's not just you.
Do you see the difference, right?
Because it's one thing for Kyle to feel not safe,
which I get and being hit
and the madness of whatever's going on between your folks.
But your sister's life's in jeopardy.
That's how it comes across to that boy, right?
They're feeling hopeless.
So then how would you relate to that environment
for not just you, but for the two of you?
I mean, I think it was just pure chaos.
There was no sense of equanimity.
Yeah.
The girlfriend I had in college for six and a half years,
that was the first time I had really witnessed
what I thought was like a fully functioning nuclear family.
Some stability.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It was mind-blowing.
I mean, it was a true gift to see that this is how it can work.
Yeah, that's beautiful.
You got to learn the language of some sort of normalcy,
some calm, some kindness, some love, right?
Which is amazing.
And I think for people listening to this,
I really want them to understand.
We talked about that step inside the circle,
I think once before,
maybe you've heard me talk about it.
It's a video online where this woman goes
into incarceration facilities
and asks a series of questions like
were you raised by a single parent if the answer is yes to any question this circle of these badass
inmates they all have to take a step and you can get the theme right so where either of your parents
drug addicts step inside and just this consistent step which you start to at the end just realize they never even knew what love was.
Like they were never taught that language.
And so it's no coincidence that they end up, quote unquote, becoming criminals
because that's the language they learned, right?
Now, thank God, you just got the biggest heart and the sweetest kid
and the most loving man.
But in an environment that was incredibly toxic you had to
learn to survive but you've also learned how to relate to life right so there's your personal
for sure that you don't feel safe but what was your relationship to life would you say
because it includes your sister and i would say by extension just good again knowing you you've
sort of you've expressed that energy but now for others right but you care about not the whole
world but like but there's a semblance of that right yeah so that kid growing up in that environment
being bullied on the way home from school what is he learning about the world it's fucking dangerous yeah yeah yeah so that's what came to me
is that you live in a world because everybody lives in their own world but for you you live
in a world that you think is dangerous and now it's being exacerbated of course by what's going
on the last two or three years right 100 yeah so hundred percent. Yeah. So let's just presence that.
What's it like for you from age three, four, five to how old are you now?
40.
Yeah.
35 years, you've been living in a world
that to you is dangerous.
And you've armed yourself accordingly,
which we could say is smart.
Like you've coped, right?
Through the fighting, through the drugs,
pharma or otherwise,
through the guns, through the fighting through the drugs farmer or otherwise through the
the guns through the size but your whole relationship to life is the world is dangerous
now just let that sink in what's that like to walk around in a world that wherever you go
it's dangerous there's no peace in it ever Ever. You're in a constant war zone.
Now just get that.
Your whole nervous system is,
you are in a constant war zone.
Now it's become normalized for you,
but as you present that,
that is far from normal.
Where else does that show up
it doesn't show up in my relationship now
thankfully
because of plant medicines and our work together
together for 10 plus years
yeah
I feel like it's it's
separate and that's almost the balancing point of if i was to say we're in total polarity
what i see in the external world is is counterbalanced by my friendships my relationships
yeah the job that i get to do and the things they get to learn and the people i get
yeah you know like that's that's what evens it out.
If it was even Stevens.
For sure.
And I can tell you, if you didn't have that, you wouldn't be here.
Because you would literally be on a battlefield.
Or you'd be on the streets.
Or you'd be a terrorist.
Right?
So it's by courtesy of the destiny of who you are with the size of heart and love you have.
That you've manifested a point of heart and love you have, that you've manifested
a point of stability. Do you understand? So if someone lives in the world, the world of their
own, that the world is dangerous, that has to become manifest, right? Meaning if somebody
thinks that who they are is a piece of shit, either they're going to compensate for it and
become like this perfectionist people pleaser as a coping mechanism, or they're going to go right into it and they'll be on the
streets doing meth. So because you have that, you aren't out there in a world literally that is
a world of danger, like you're on the front lines and wherever, right? Do you see that?
Yeah.
But I want you to understand systematically,
in terms of your central nervous system,
it's still where you live.
Correct.
That's why I wanted to bring it up
because my intention coming into this week
as I really thought of it,
treating the Fit for Service Summit as a ceremony
and I get to participate in it
as I also get to coach in it, right?
I'm always learning from these experiences.
When we did the circling exercise,
I realized that I still don't have peace.
And it just, you know, a little blip.
I'm like, oh yeah, I don't feel that.
I feel a sense of unease constantly if I pay attention to it.
Yeah, like Eric said, it's always there.
Even though he may not be quote-unquote stuttering,
it's always there. Even though he may not be quote-unquote stuttering, it's always there.
What is always there?
The fear, the anticipation, the intrepidation of that
like going to happen, the trepidation.
So for you, likewise, you've got the beautiful family,
you've got the beautiful tribe,
you've done the plant medicines,
you've got a lot of knowledge,
but the nervous system is still relating to life
as though it's fucking dangerous out there.
So if that's your relation to life,
what's your consistent theme in the way that you feel,
the way that you act, the way that you behave?
The theme doesn't come to mind,
but the actions that come to mind are i'm in a state of doing preparing
um taking action towards the things that help me sleep at night yeah and what are those actions
just it might be going to the sheepdog with tim kennedy and learning how to do firearms training
it might yeah um our permaculture specialist teaching us how to grow our own food and have food sovereignty all that going on
so if we were to categorize that under one label
one way of being, what are you doing?
learning those things is in order to what?
prepare for a shit show
and in preparation for a shit show you could say that you're doing
what for yourself
and your family?
Safeguarding.
Yeah.
Protecting.
Right.
So now think about it
in terms of like you said,
the things to help you sleep.
If somebody is in a mode,
their whole system,
of whatever I have to do,
the behaviors are in order
to protect myself. mode, their whole system, of that whatever I have to do, the behaviors are in order to
protect myself. So if I have to protect myself, is that a state of ease or dis-ease?
Dis-ease.
Yeah.
Chronic.
Chronic. Chronic dis-ease, right? But that experience of having to protect oneself is
only a byproduct of the fact that the way you relate to
life is that you're not safe and by extension for you much bigger the world is dangerous like
i'm not safe that's fucking clear but i can kind of handle myself but my sister's not safe
and then other people i know who i care about aren't safe so now you're charged with this responsibility that in a world
that is dangerous,
it's up to Kyle to make sure
everyone's okay.
Then slap you on the button.
You know, have a nice sleep.
Rest well,
darling.
Right? You sort of
see the contradiction there.
Yeah. So now now based on what you see me already do with other people what's what's the predominant lie that you're living in like we get the world
of it like anyone listening to this and we could sort of hang out there more and there'd be more
tears and but like you're smart enough you've done enough work we don't need to keep living
in the world of like fucking everything is dangerous. Like you've lived there for 30 something years, right? So if that's your world, we see the
reactions, we see the response, we see the preparation, we see the need to protect.
It's literally unavoidable for you to not feel the need to protect because the way you relate to life is that it's dangerous do you see
that like it's inextricably connected it's an extension of that reality but the cost to you
of constantly having to protect how else like you've learned to manage it you do well you've
got good people around you but what are some of the costs to you of living in a world where you constantly have to protect?
Well, I mean, physiologically, it's visceral.
Like I just feel a tightness and a constriction around my midsection, you know, or it's like,
sometimes it's in the jaw, but most of the time it's like, I can't have a deep breath or it takes me running lifting weights or fucking blowing my lungs open get there
yeah um like literally exercising the demons to then yeah rest calmly yeah um yoga for an hour
and a half just so i can meditate for 20 minutes you know like just so i can sit yeah yeah yeah
and thank god you're built like an ox because otherwise that manifests as like a lot of
problems right sickness and disease i've had tinkering for sure, you know,
and lots of injuries to not listening to that. So yeah, I built a decent relationship there
listening to my body, but the deeper listening I was really unaware of until yesterday.
Yeah. I was like, God damn it, dude.
I was honestly, I was so touched. I mean, you're obviously tall and huge,
but I could see that fucking arm.
That's me.
I was like, yep, there it is.
I love that.
And it touched the ceiling of my gut.
Yeah, and I just love the vulnerability
and that just speaks volumes about you as such a sweetheart, right?
And we're going to reinstate that way of being for you.
So what is the predominant lie that you're living in?
The world's dangerous.
Yeah.
Now why is that a lie?
Well, if I look at my life past childhood,
it has not been dangerous unless I decided to make it so
in the UFC or something like that. And even that relatively not dangerous on a life or death standpoint.
And certainly not in the way that you're relating to it, right? Like painful,
you know, injurious maybe, but like not necessarily dangerous. I mean, you know,
there's a level of threat there, but yeah. So again, at your ripe old age, you probably still have another hopefully 50, 60 years.
And if I was to tell you that even everything that's transpiring
and the sadness that's out there, like, you know, Tim and the work he does
and the sex trafficking that's going on
and kids are being brutally ripped apart for organs
and like this stuff is happening, right?
Like we can't just turn a blind eye.
There's just a lot of tragedy out there that's horrific.
But if your life, your family, your community,
nothing substantial happens for the remaining 60 years of your life,
yet you lived as though it was going to be just that next moment could you see the difference
between another 60 years of the world is dangerous constantly the perpetual need to protect with all
of the different behaviors you have the way that you have to mitigate that with meditation running
to try and dissipate the tension in your body to do that for 60 years? Or what I just propose is that nothing other than, you know,
stubbing a toe on a table once in a while or cutting yourself shaving
or, you know, someone breaks up, but they're okay.
And, you know, no real danger ever happens.
What would that life be like?
It'd be a lot better.
It would be peaceful, even from a Bruce Lee standpoint.
You know, you don't engage standpoint. You don't engage emotional.
You don't fight in anger.
If you come from a state of peace, your awareness is expanded
and you're actually better at protecting yourself.
From an optimization standpoint to fighting,
it's better if I'm coming from a place of peace.
And now, so beautiful.
So you can see those, it's like literally,
I talk about this sort of linear progression of someone's life, right?
So we could see Kyle here, little boy, super scared,
fucking sisters crying at the table, feels powerless,
gets to a point where he's seven or eight,
kind of fights off some kids, maybe gets beaten up by others.
But he's slowly learning this linear trajection of self-protection
that incorporates others because of your beautiful sister
that you wanted to protect too, right?
And so now you understand permaculture.
Protection, but a little more holistic.
Then you know how to handle every fucking kind of gun
and you could kick the shit out of me in five seconds.
It's like you've learned
these skills but it's on a linear trajectory but what i'm talking about is this vertical ascension
where you literally live at a different frequency so that 60 years of living in fight or flight
mitigating it managing it as best as you can probably later in life getting all sorts of
sicknesses because of your system just can't sustain it. Or you go to a different frequency where that next future 60 years,
there's the absence of any danger. That's an entirely different experience, right?
So now here's the irony. The thing that you are, like you witnessed with me working with other people what's the real danger to you the real danger is and continuing to
perpetuate the lie yeah isn't that crazy so when you do understand because you're
so smart your brain maybe until this moment
has thought the danger is out there
but the real danger to you as a being is the thought that the world is dangerous
is that nuts that is the only literal threat that's impacting your life
is that you have it it's not like a belief it is the way it is for you it's so ingrained and we
can have all the compassion for that little kid that developed the evidence to prove
that you live in my fucking house it's fucking dangerous and then that became part of the way that you relate to
life it's not like a thought or a superstition of like no i think the world's dangerous but then
you get on with it no no the world is dangerous but the real danger to you your your health, your wealth, your freedom, your peace, is your own thought.
The way that you are, that the world is, which is maybe a weird way of saying it,
but the way that you are, that the world is, is that the world is dangerous.
That is the most dangerous thing in your entire life.
Now just get that.
The only thing that is threatening your life,
the thing that hurts you the most,
is your own relationship to life.
Did you see that?
Well, I got a glimpse of it yesterday.
But obviously there was more to it.
And so I wanted to bring it up here for a freebie,
a free coaching session.
And as I tend to do, expose myself on this podcast.
Yeah, which is beautiful.
Did you get what I'm saying?
It's because it's written into the software.
You talked about the hardware, software.
It's not something I play with intellectually.
It's something that I downloaded and encoded into the software of the operating system from a young age.
That's what I'm saying.
It's systematic and this is why it's going to take a little bit
to detangle from this.
But what I want you to get is,
so I'm going to give you an example
that will help maybe to sort of show you
what I'm pointing out.
I was speaking at an event in Minnesota.
The driver picked me up and he was very flattering.
He's like, I love your podcast.
You've really helped.
And he said, can I ask you a question?
And I was like, sure.
And he says, you know,
I've really been struggling with something
for my entire life since i was a kid and like i said okay what's that he said well i'm a claustrophobic
and so i struggle to be around people i go to a an event and i feel like i need to like get out of
there and i'm always like worried about where can where's my exit and stuff like and i totally could
have compassion i got it i said okay well we've just met but i'm gonna guess at some point as a kid like you were put in a position
where you really felt that he's like yeah yeah i was probably about fifth sixth grade and my buddies
locked me in a fridge an old fridge but like a fridge right like and he's a kid like you know
and he's he'd fucking panic right like terror and I said wow that must have been so scary he's like yeah I still have
nightmares and I said okay and how you were like how old he said well like 11 or something like
that and I said and how old you now and he's like I don't know 43 and I'm like okay so for 38 years
you've had this experience you've been to he said i've done therapy hypnotherapy i said yeah so i get it and um i said so there's one thing you said that i just really want you
to revisit and he's like what that what's that i said it's kind of the first thing you said which
is i'm a claustrophobic and i said so like what does that mean like like you are a claustrophobic
like he's well yeah it's like a diagnosis like that mean? Like, you are a claustrophobic. Like, and he's, well, yeah, it's like a diagnosis.
Like, that's what I struggle, all the symptoms I have.
I'm like, oh, okay, interesting.
So, like, were you always that way?
Or like, were you born a claustrophobic?
Like, was that like...
Like when people say I'm Christian, I'm like, oh, okay, interesting.
Like, okay.
Anyway, that's a whole other topic.
That's a rabbit hole for sure.
Yeah.
And I said,
did it kind of start from that moment in the fridge?
He's like, well, probably from that.
I'm like, okay, so there was an event
that was like, in your case,
like 38 years ago or 31 years ago,
whatever it is.
And now you've declared yourself from that moment
as that's who you are.
And he's like starting to notice
like, you know what i'm saying
i'm like so so scary moment terrifying like you're stark black can't breathe much and like that's
fucking horrible but you got out and he's like yeah it's probably shorter than i thought but
when you're in it like i was like yeah i get an earthquake yeah it's like it's scary and um
and i said so is it true that you're actually claustrophobic
or did you have a moment where you felt claustrophobic
that was a tight space?
So now he's starting to see, okay, well, that's it.
And then he started to see, okay, well, yeah.
And I said, do you always feel it
or do you sometimes you're okay in certain situations?
He's like, no, sometimes I'm okay.
So I'm like, okay, so first of all, it's not consistent.
So the truth is always consistent. So if so first of all it's not consistent so you know the truth is always consistent so if it varies then it's not true is that oh okay i said
you know what can i tell you something really funny i said he's like yeah i said the thing that
creates the most claustrophobic thing that is going on in your life is the thought, I'm a claustrophobic. It's like,
that's such a confining thought. And he really got it. He's like, holy shit, the claustrophobia
I experience is because of the thought that I'm a claustrophobic. If I take a glass of water,
the water takes on the shape of the glass. If I pour that into a vase, it's now a vase of water or a bowl of water.
But the water will take on the form based on what it's contained in.
So I said, who you are is boundless, timeless,
but you live within the context called I'm a claustrophobic
and therefore you have to experience claustrophobia.
That make sense? it's claustrophobia that makes sense so kyle pure love free being powerful limitless but lives in
what container i'm a protector i'm aware that's what you do because of the container which is
the world is dangerous. Yeah.
So if you live inside the world is dangerous,
you have zero choice, zero choice,
but to act in accordance with that reality.
The warrior, the protector,
go and learn everything about guns, fighting.
Do you see?
It's all commensurate with the world is dangerous.
So it begs the question,
can you categorically tell me as a truth,
meaning it has to be consistent across all forms,
yes or no, that the world is dangerous?
No, it is not. No, Give me at least three pieces of evidence,
even if it's just this last few days,
that shows you the world is not dangerous.
Yeah.
I mean, you look at our event for the last few days.
Look at my entire relationship with my wife
and our two incredible kids.
There's no danger in any of that.
Only just opening and opening.
Challenging, but not dangerous by any means.
Just pure love.
Yeah.
We're just inundated and surrounded by people
who all they want to do is love.
And yet, over there, walking around,
amongst literal, like present love, kindness, compassion,
care, evolution, transformation,
is a guy who's in his own world called the world is dangerous.
Isn't that crazy?
I thought you were smart.
Yeah.
It's big, though.
Really big.
Because I'm not safe, I get, and there's a component of that,
but yours is like 10x that.
Which also explains all of your aptitudes
and your skills that you've developed in that world.
So is it true that the world is dangerous?
No, it's not true.
And there's whatever's going on.
Yeah. Right? And that too. Yeah, it does exist. There whatever's going on. Yeah.
Right?
And that too. Yeah, it does exist.
There's stuff going on, but we don't know what the next 60 something years of your life looks like.
You may never encounter danger in the way that you are relating to life.
You know, someone cuts you off in traffic, was close, almost had an accident.
Was that dangerous?
Well, it could have been, wasn't.
You know, somebody maybe threatened you at a restaurant or a bar.
They've had one too many cocktails.
They don't like the way you look or they just, whatever.
They're just trying to pick a fight.
But because of who you are, they back down.
Nothing really happened.
There may be the sort of the potential for something that never actualizes.
Yet you live in perpetual state, or did hopefully,
that, yeah, but you've got to look out because the world is dangerous.
It's like an is.
See, words are so powerful and people don't understand this.
People think the way that they speak, and this is going to be huge for you.
People think the way they speak is descriptive.
You think you're describing the world.
But guess what you're doing?
Words are creative.
You get that? Yeah buddy that's that's deep see you had it until i just said what i just said you thought you were describing the world what have you been doing creating the world creating
my world which is or was the world was dangerous and you were perpetually creating it
that way isn't that nuts and therefore you had to you had to with all the compassion in the world
based on how you were brought up you had no choice but to react to the world that you unknowingly were perpetually creating. How would Kyle feel if whatever's transpiring,
you know, we could argue that a lot of people are waking up
and we're oblivious.
And for sure, there's some souls that are using this
as a time to check out, right?
They don't have the bandwidth to stay here.
They succumb, they comply, whatever's happening.
But within two, two three five years there's this sort of revelation the sort of 60s but more evolved kind of free love and
the overturning of the oligarchs and people are like free and living off the land and there's
this new sense of community.
But that couldn't have happened if it weren't for the travesties of these last few years.
But that's going to happen.
That's the future we're headed towards.
How does Kyle feel?
Joyous and at ease.
I want that future.
That's a fuck yeah future.
Right.
But that fuck yeah future can't exist. That's a fuck yeah future. Right.
But that fuck yeah future can't exist.
Here's the irony. I know you're such a stand for that world.
But you can't access it because you were perpetually creating that the world is dangerous.
So this will be hard for you to hear.
But all the people you see out there as the quote-unquote bad guys creating the tyranny,
creating the abuse and the hostility,
the world you created for yourself is no different.
Yeah, it was my own prison.
But energetically, there's a contribution to the whole.
So where's the tyranny?
That's the part, as I said, that's hard to hear.
Because I know your love.
But what you've been up to is contributing to tyranny.
Which for your brain is like, whoa like i'm a stand for the opposite
but energetically you're not i've wondered that you know and then looking into others and seeing
them in yourself or parts work any of these other things you know and and uh it's been very hard to
relate to anyone i would put on that list you list of people that are causing the fuckery.
And as much as I try, even with medicines or in meditation,
it's been hard to relate until the way you just worded it.
And I was like, that is how I sign off on what's happening.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Right?
So here you are, a stand for love, kindness, community,
like respect, reverence of the feminine,
like mother life guy, like really,
that's who I see you to be.
But it's all shackled,
waiting, waiting until the world is safe.
But it can't be because the way you relate to life was,
is that it's dangerous.
So it never will be in that context.
Never.
You would have gone to the grave for the next 60 years,
aside from hopefully this conversation,
as a guy who was a stand, who people loved,
who knew everything about every fucking type of gun, knife and whatever,
and chokehold, but never found peace
because he thought the world was dangerous,
not realizing the world was in him.
That's pretty big.
How does that hit you?
Softening.
Yeah.
Yeah, I just feel the...
Maybe the breath that you couldn't normally access.
Yeah.
I feel just a softening and an opening inside.
This is how powerful you are.
That kid at the table,
his sister was crying.
I get, I get the powerlessness of that.
You're so powerful.
You are creating your world.
And life, universe will reflect that.
Because see, if you really get that this world of 8 billion people,
whatever it is,
if everybody experienced what you just feel right now as a softening,
where's the tyranny out there?
Isn't any?
Yeah.
So now you can be responsible,
not that you're out there mutilating or sex trafficking children
or lying about drugs or whatever,
but your energy, no different, was.
That's a big pill to swallow.
It's one I know you can handle.
But if you want to see how powerful you are,
your energy was contributing to the tyranny that you think you're fighting.
That's a powerful thing to see.
Right?
No, you don't want to be that guy.
Right?
No.
So what's the possibility for carl now
the possibility is living in peace totally right
and seeing a different world co-creating a different world yeah
for as powerful as you are my friend friend, like on every level, physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually,
you have a gift to help usher, give birth to a world that is love.
Because that's what you see.
Were you present for the birth of your kids?
Oh yeah, caught them both.
Yeah.
Was it easy?
Was it pretty?
Was it elegant?
Was it like...
It was a lot like hunting.
It was fucking all the things.
Yeah.
All of it at once.
But what was the container that you held for your wife and the kid that was arriving?
Pure love.
Pure love and attention and care.
So what if, you know,
the tearing of the perineum and the blood and the fucking passing out
and all the stuff that can happen in that beautiful container
is what we're witnessing en masse.
It's messy.
Yeah.
Messy.
It's ugly.
It's painful.
Fucking screaming everywhere.
Scared.
Don't know what the fuck's going to happen next.
Is this going to go on forever?
Is she going to be okay?
Right?
But it's a birth.
And during a birth, there's a lot of pain.
But you, already of practice, holding a container of love,
even in the presence of literal mess, muck, shit, pain,
didn't faze you because there's this commitment
to what's on the other side,
which is new life.
That's what we're here for.
There's some joke.
That's a different human,'t it yeah meanwhile you fucking garnered some great skills that's
awesome you know in the event of but like you fucking walk around like a peaceful warrior
yeah warrior in the garden you know yeah shit hits the fan oh yeah i got that skill set but
i don't think about it because I probably never have to use it
because I'm committed to a world of love
world is beautiful
world is kind
the world is
gracious
I'd take three of those
over the world is dangerous
yeah
so if Kyle adopts the relationship to life that the world is beautiful
what's that feel like it feels pretty fucking good yeah i felt that about aspects of it you
know that nature is beautiful and the witnessing of that is is a a god not a little
touch yeah but within that what if you went to nature that isn't to the untrained eye beautiful
give me one example nature is metal you know the account on instagram that rogan's always posting
oh yeah nature is metal i don't know if you're familiar with that i'll fucking link to it um
yeah it's just you know badass shit like a woman getting mauled by a tiger ripped out of her car
or, you know, a chimpanzee escapes
and rips the zookeeper's arm off, just anything, you know.
Even, yeah, just, you know, the animals,
herbivore animals eating the young of other competitive animals
that compete for the grassland.
Yeah, yeah.
And the more hardcore
and yet you can contain that
in the perspective
your translation of
it's still beauty because that's just what happens
yeah
well you think like the evolution of humanity
is going to just be like fucking rainbows
and unicorns
it doesn't track that way backwards so my guess is you know as the wheel
keeps spinning that it yeah yeah yeah but it's like the laws of averages right like if there's
eight billion people and five six billion of them are still in their dark their version of the world
is dangerous you know i
could assert without putting you on the spot you're contributing to the darkness more than most people
because their energy is more about them yours is collective they're like oh i'm not safe i'm an
idiot i'm bad like we saw yesterday like i'm not going to be okay and there's that subjective fear but you were really
embodying collective fear
so in terms of the level
of contribution to the collective
dog, you kind of did a pretty
shitty job
or a good job
pretty funny right
you would assert completely the opposite
you'd actually fight someone.
Yeah.
Oh, fuck you.
I'll put the shit out of you.
Yeah, I'm all for love.
I'll fucking break your arm.
It's like, oh, wow, that's so loving.
I could see that you're very loving
as I can barely breathe in a choke lock.
Right, it's kind of funny, right?
You start to see, holy shit,
like am I really a stand for love
or am I perpetuating danger
yeah crazy that is crazy yeah yeah i could i had a sense of the collective you know as i was driving
here thinking about what we're going to podcast and i already knew i was going to bring up
uh gazi and the work you were doing yesterday but the and how that ties to the world but the
the collective piece i hadn't understood you know my own contribution to it yeah and um why that was
so important was because my my view of it was collective yeah not just personal exactly and
that's why you look at someone like eric what he was going through, he was worried about him relative to society. It's how most people walk around. They're just
really in their own world. But you're so powerful. And this is like the beauty of opposites. Now we
get to transmute that into like the fight for good, not as a fight, but the stand for love and all the things
that you really would assert you are for,
but now your system can align with it.
Like you can relate to life when you walk out of this room.
Life is fucking beautiful.
That's how I live.
I was at a workshop once and this guy came up
and he was super market-y and sales-y.
I was with this girl who had brought me to this thing.
So he's probably trying to enroll me
in whatever fucking thing they're trying to sell.
I could feel it in a second.
Hey, wow, good to see you.
He's like,
Time share in Costa Rica.
Exactly.
That I might have fallen for.
So he's like, yeah, so who are you?
And I just said to him,
I'm the luckiest man in the world.
And it just stopped him, you know,
because he didn't know what to say to that.
It's not like part of his script
of what someone says
and then he goes to his next line.
But it also showed me something
that I was able to generate on the spot
because words are creative, not descriptive.
And I've kind of stuck by that ever since because I created it. But where's my evidence? I mean,
I could point to things. It's not a truth, but it's the stand. It's the container that I'm
choosing to live within. So even in the face of the blood and the pain and the screaming of your
wife as this beautiful baby is coming through, who you is love so what if in the face of whatever we're still going to see that unfolds
the tyranny the lies the wars the just the deception the corruption like yeah we could go
oh they're fucking idiots and but what energy you're adopting at that moment tyranny disrespect
it's not to say you condone it.
It's not to say that these are people
you want to come to Thanksgiving, you know,
but it's like, it's a dying breed.
The expression fear will break its own heart.
That's what's happening.
They're all breaking their own hearts right now
and they're just desperate.
They're scared children.
Yeah.
And that actually warrants a bit of compassion.
Yeah.
Right?
Yeah, big time.
Do you kids behave impeccably all the time?
Fuck no.
No.
I love getting new parents around that have the glow.
What's it like?
It's all of it.
It's not any one thing.
It's fucking awesome and it's all of it.
It's fucking everything in between.
It's all of it.
Yeah, and if you were to give one title to all of that,
who are you in the face of all of that?
Love.
Yeah.
So you have the microcosm,
I'm not going to say perfected,
but certainly to a certain degree of mastery,
which is that you hold a container of love for all of it.
Now we take that, apply it to the macro.
Not only is the world not dangerous,
the world is love.
Because that's who I am to it. Then see what shows up. Probably
won't need an assault rifle.
I got such a good one. I got a six and a half Creedmoor 18 inch. It's so good. God, I love
it. It's like driving a Bentley. It's so nice.
You can clean it and admire it.
Yeah.
That's a different world, isn't it?
Yeah.
It's definitely a different Kyle.
Yeah, brother.
How do you feel?
I feel peace for the first time in a long time.
I talked about that opening and then we kept talking
and it slowly just expanded and I feel warm in my hands and my face and like blood and energy is flowing through my
periphery.
Yeah.
Not constricted.
That's pretty cool, isn't it?
It's fucking wild.
I got the microdose of it yesterday.
Now we're getting you.
Give me some more of that.
A couple more cups.
Please, can I have some more? Yeah. Yeah, no, we're getting you. Give me some more of that. A couple more cups. Please, sir, can I have some more?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, dude, you're just such a pleasure to be with,
you know, and I get it.
I get why that little boy
that's still been running through your veins,
why he's there and we love him,
but we don't let him run your life.
It's a part of you that is not you that felt the world was dangerous.
Really get that.
It's a part of you that's not you that thought the world was dangerous.
The real you is so big, it's the container to even allow that little kid who's scared,
just like you will for your kids, they'll get scared.
Dad's like, don't worry about it, I got you.
Yeah.
Now you get to do that for your little part that is living in a lie.
Understandable, but it's a lie.
You know, kids believe in the Easter Bunny and fucking Santa
and your little boy thought the world was dangerous.
It's kind of adorable.
Right?
Yeah.
Is the world dangerous?
No.
No.
It is what it is and we'll see what unfolds.
Yeah.
But who you are and who I am is love.
So be that. That's beautiful brother thank you thank you thank you thank you that
brings us right to the fucking hour mark i know you got another podcast with op coming up yeah
you're for pete uh i got a talk later today so i'm gonna hit the land and enjoy nature's beauty and love. Yeah. Go and see because you are the world that you see.
So go and not see the world,
but create it based on the way that you're looking at it.
I love that.
I did an exercise once in this realm
because I, like all of us, have those different constraints
that I help people unfold.
I had to work through them myself.
And mine wasn't perhaps to the extent of the whole world is dangerous,
but I thought maybe I was in danger periodically depending on where.
And I walked around one day and I was like,
I walked around in the world of everybody loves me.
And the shit that unfolded that day...
That's true though, Peter.
Everyone does love you.
That's because I fucking created it.
You're awesome, buddy.
When I was young and I was isolated
and I was orphaned and I thought
I was by myself, that was not how the world
occurred to me. But thank you.
So was it the way that it was
or did I create that and subsequently that's
what showed up? Do you see?
So if who Kyle is
to the world is the world is love,
we could
probably guess what's going to show up. Might not be
tomorrow. You'll get glimpses today.
Might not be in a week, the collective.
But you keep standing
there. You're a fucking force
of nature. I don't like the world's chances
against that
try and be dangerous
right
words are creative
not descriptive
I love that
thank you brother
where can people find you
talk about your mastermind
are you still taking people in for that online?
Yeah.
The one we're in right now will come to an end,
I think, beginning of April.
So we'll probably start another one in May.
It's a three-month container,
which is just tears to the eyes,
powerful, witnessing me do this,
but en masse in a group with many people,
different stories.
So everyone can vicariously
relate um and we meet every two weeks it's sort of a morning session theory afternoon coaching
but also now i've got something called the freedom community so some people can't access
the mastermind it might be a little bit out of the budget or something but the freedom community
is just a container again where i put exclusive content super affordable per month so
same kind of feel of a commitment that's committed
to evolving and
being free hence the
freedom community and then just Instagram
Peter Crone people can find me there
I love it thank you so much brother it's been
an honor and a pleasure getting to know you and getting to hang
with you more and yeah we will remedy
the time in between and get that
gap shorter and shorter
yeah I like that commitment
especially now
you know
if you're not too busy
trying to fucking
protect everyone
because the world
is dangerous
it's difficult to get
a hold of that guy
I don't know
he's out there
covered in fucking
boot polish or something
boot polish
come on
I'm here
come get me
I love you brother
thank you
love you brother thank you love you too you
