I am.

from Grit and Zen Podcast Hosted by Kurt Armstrong

Kurt Armstrong hosts the Grit and Zen Podcast, discussing permaculture-inspired self-regeneration and acceptance of past substance abuse. He follows an ital diet, seeks detachment from identity, and navigates dualistic work as a bartender while embracing presence. Self-realization centers on the divine spark within, accessible now without asceticism. Removing labels like Kurt Armstrong reveals shared energy. Love and nonjudgment, practiced at a bar, foster acceptance. Past jail time prompted change through reflection and work. Surrender and unlearning guide a shift from alcohol to a disciplined, desireless lifestyle with awareness of dependence on tools like a Vitamix. A bartender role seeks love in a safe space. Breath exercises aim to link consciousness; smoking persists with acceptance. This is a public episode.
