Ep. 34 - Richard Condon - Plant Medicine, Ontology & Integration

Hey everybody!! Episode 34 of the show is out. In this show, I spoke with my friend Richard Condon. Richard and I met at the Amazonian plant healing center, The Temple of the Way of Light, where he came to drink medicine and began offering his work to help align, deepen, and bring distinctions to the organization. I have learned a lot from Richard and consider him a teacher. His work with ontology, distinctions, language, alignment, and integrity has taught me a lot and helped me to deepen the work that I do. One of the questions I’m often asked is about plant medicine integration, and Richard’s work is an excellent tool in aiding in this. His work is really powerful outside of this field as well. I really enjoyed this conversation. To me, Richard really embodies what an inquisitive, clear, and focused mind is able to accomplish, as well as a big heart. I always enjoy speaking with and learning from Richard and I think you all will get a lot out of this episode.

The answer was having made a difference in people's lives in a profound way and to have elevated our own humanity…As I enter the last act of my life I have been even more deeply engaged in Bucky’s question. This has given rise to a deeper exploration of a new access to living, “Living an Aligned Life.”Currently I have also partnered with Jeff Willmore to deliver The Entrepreneurship, Accomplishment & Autonomy Course. This unique structure and methodology deliberately steps away from the “tips and techniques” kind of business knowledge that betrays top performance and instead, allows you to embody the advanced knowledge of a market leader and allows you to design leading edge practices based on your own original thinking.”Richard’s full bio: https://www.universewithinpodcast.com/podcast/richard-condonRichard’s website: https://www.missionb.coThis episode is sponsored by the Temple of the Way of Light: https://templeofthewayoflight.org/Share the show, Subscribe or Follow, leave comments, and go on Apple Podcasts and leave a starred-rating and a short review.
