Redefining the Warrior Archetype for Mod...

Katherine Zorensky
About this episode

One of my favorite podcast guests Matt Sturm is back, this time to speak about the Modern Day Warrior archetype in service to Masculinity in NOW times. This engaging conversation delves deep into the archetype that touches some of the darkest corners of human history. According to Matt, warriorship is not about distancing a man from these shadows, but becoming intimate with them in a way that evolves them into a purity of service to humanity. In this podcast, we explore the relationship between needs and violence. We discuss the potency of harnessing a man's erotic nature in service to becoming a peace warrior. And we uncover a glimpse of Matt's true vision of what is possible for humanity through this deeply embodied evolved archetype of Warrior.

This compelling conversation is the tip of the iceburg explored in Matt's book: "The Organic Masculine: Lorebook 2, The Warrior" being published in December 2024. His first book, "The Organic Masculine: Lorebook 1, The Magician" was just released last week. For links to this incredible read (for men and women), and more on Matt see links below.
