This is from our Heart Initiation course at www.HeartInitiation.com (sign up for our free book to know when we open our course again). This was filmed in 2015 for the 'How To Understand The Masculine' section. Stephen James Burford (left) speaks to David Bruce Leonard. What Stephen Is: Stephen, 37, is a man who has walked the path to the full embodiment of his soul through a journey that has meant looking inside himself for all the answers. He grew up in a household that was often fighting. After seeing this painful struggle for over a decade he decided that he truly desired a partnership with a woman with who he could build something truly spectacular. When he was 27 he realised that the information out there to live the life he wanted with his future partner was not out there. He, therefore, decided to cut his own trail by starting The Evolving Lover Podcast and building Raw Attraction Magazine. The podcast has had millions of listeners and the magazine became more popular in the App Store than Cosmopolitan and Men's Health Magazine. At 30, Stephen then went on to successfully crowdfund the world's first online university of love & sexuality with some of the world's best teachers including JP Sears, Triambika Ma Vive, and many others. This has since transformed to HeartInitiation.com and Rebirth Your Relationship. At 33 he wrote My Ecstatic Rebirth: The 10 Keys To Unleash Your Power, Pleasure & Purpose. Amongst building these businesses he also went to healing workshops all over the world and found mentors to help him navigate the journey of self. One particular mentor, an elder shamaness in Colorado, USA took him to the edge of what was possible.

She mentored him on and off for 5 years and took him through a world of inner alchemy like no other. It is through this sacred wisdom that he took the hero's journey to heal himself and now he brings back these teachings for you. Stephen is trained in shamanism, inner alchemy (turning your inner shadows into gold), dowsing, and deep soul transformation. Stephen is a great salsa dancer (Colombian Cali style salsa) and loves to be fun and playful in his teachings. His dry sense of humour comes from the likes of Karl Pilkington and Ricky Gervais. He loves to teach women who want to traverse the inner worlds of transformation to help their most intimate partnership become more fun, joyful, and stronger than ever. Stephen is not an accredited psychologist; he has no special letters after his name, has not lived in a monastery, was not raised by wolves, and is (probably) not from the future. He does not channel any beings, or pass on messages from angels or spirit guides, although it can se ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWFP_fvYCvY

In this podcast we speak to Lauren Brim, the author of the book 'The New Rules of Sex' about her Christian upbringing and what Christianity has to say about sex. We also discuss women's relationship with sex and how important it is for all of us that we have a more healthy relationship with our sexuality. Another great podcast! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gP3jipX0k3w
