Ep79 - Facing My Shadow Through Sleep Token’s “Damocles” | Raw Shadow Work, Unmasking, and Awakening - R.Y.S.E Podcast

In this raw, unfiltered session, I dive deep into my own shadow using Sleep Token’s new song "Damocles" as the mirror for unmasking old identities — especially the Performer Mask I've worn for years.
This isn’t just a reaction.This is real-time shadow work.This is collapsing the old structures.This is the painful, messy truth of integration, awakening, and becoming someone new.
Inside this video, you’ll witness:
How unconscious masks like "the performer" are created and worn
How neurodivergence (ADHD & ASD) adds layers to shadow work
How external validation, expectation, and old trauma wires the mind for self-sabotage
How I am deconstructing false identities in real time to reconnect with authentic self-expression
Why Sleep Token’s Damocles triggered a deep energetic and emotional purge inside me
This isn't polished. It’s not perfect.It’s real. It’s messy. And it’s necessary.

Confusion, ambiguity, and complexity are used as tools of control
Linguistic framing hijacks your identity and behaviours

Ep76 - Grief, Growth, and the Hero’s Journey – R.Y.S.E Podcast

In this transformative podcast episode, I explore the profound lessons that grief offers us when embraced as part of our personal development journey. Through my reflections and experiences with Forging Excalibur, I share how facing unprocessed grief, loss, and pain is essential for true growth and healing. Inspired by Carl Jung’s concept of shadow work and the mythopoetic framework of the Hero’s Journey, I dive into how leaning into discomfort reveals deeper insights about ourselves and catalyses powerful inner change.
How to Lean into Processing Your Grief: Grief can be an isolating and overwhelming experience, but healing begins by acknowledging that you don't have to walk this path alone. I encourage anyone navigating intense emotions to seek support through professional channels, such as therapists, counsellors, or psychologists, who are equipped to provide tailored guidance and compassionate care. Reaching out to helplines like Life Line (13 11 14) or Men's Line (1300 78 99 78) can be a crucial first step for immediate support and understanding.
Key Points from the Episode:
Embracing the Hero’s Journey: I discuss how identifying with the stages of the Hero’s Journey empowers us to reframe our struggles as necessary trials that lead to transformation and resilience.
Carl Jung’s Shadow Work: Understanding the unconscious mind's role in our grief allows us to illuminate suppressed emotions and beliefs that impact our daily life.
Balancing Life’s Dual Worlds: We live in both a tangible, physical realm and an inner, emotional, and spiritual world. I explain why adopting a mythopoetic worldview bridges these worlds and enriches our experiences, creating purpose and lifeforce.
Practical Steps for Emotional Growth: Simple yet effective practices for integrating grief and maintaining well-being, such as journaling, mindfulness, and seeking mentorship or coaching, are highlighted.

Ep75 - How Much Does Personality Change Post ADHD/ ASD Diagnosis? Dr Jordan Peterson - R.Y.S.E Podcast

In this episode, I share my personal journey with the Big 5 Personality Tests, focusing on the profound changes between the test I took in 2018 and the recent one. Diagnosed with ADHD and ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder), these conditions greatly influenced my personality traits over the years. We’ll dive deep into openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism, exploring how these shifts occurred due to life experiences, trauma, and personal growth.
I took both tests on Dr Jordan Peterson's website, Understand Myself, where you can also explore your personality traits using the Big 5.
Through this journey, I explore how mental health diagnoses and personal evolution can change the way we see ourselves. This episode is for anyone curious about personality psychology, self-awareness, and neurodivergence.

Ep74 - Rest, Recovery & Mythopoetics...Yes, They Go Together - The R.Y.S.E Podcast

In this episode, David Sarkany delves deep into the essential yet overlooked importance of rest, recovery, and sleep.
As a personal trainer, health coach, and hypnotherapist, David sheds light on why doing nothing—genuine relaxation—is a cornerstone of overall health, beyond the flashy wellness trends like cold plunges and compression therapy. He emphasizes that true recovery happens when we detach from stimuli, allowing the body to naturally reset.
David goes further, explaining how sleep—often the most underutilised performance enhancer—can dramatically improve not just physical recovery, but also mental clarity and hormonal balance. He explores how chronic sleep deprivation can lead to burnout, stress, and an overall decrease in performance, appetite control, and libido. Optimising sleep (7-9 hours) isn't just a recommendation; it's vital for optimal living. Shifting to the psycho-spiritual realm, David explains the profound role of mythopoetic thinking in life.
He discusses how adopting a mythopoetic worldview enhances our mental, emotional, and spiritual journeys. In a world where materialism can make life feel dull and dry, this lens helps you reclaim a deep sense of purpose, beauty, and eros in your daily experience.
This episode is a powerful reminder that both rest and a robust mythopoetic worldview are essential for living a balanced, fulfilling life. Learn how aligning your physical recovery with your psycho-spiritual growth can help you thrive in all aspects of life.

Bliss & Relaxation Guided Hypnosis - R.Y.S.E

Bliss & Relaxation Guided Hypnosis | Certified Master Practitioner of Hypnosis & NLP
Welcome to my Bliss & Relaxation Guided Hypnosis session. Whether you're looking to unwind from a busy day or seeking a deeper sense of calm, this hypnosis session is designed to help you achieve profound relaxation and inner peace.
Hypnosis is a natural, altered state of consciousness where your mind is highly suggestible and open to positive changes. It’s a powerful tool for relaxation, personal growth, and aligning the conscious and unconscious mind. Contrary to misconceptions, hypnosis is NOT about mind control or making you do things against your will. Instead, it’s a therapeutic practice that taps into your unconscious mind to help you unlock deeper relaxation, heal from stress, and improve well-being.
As a Certified Master Practitioner of Hypnosis & NLP, I’ve created this session to guide you into a state of bliss, away from the hustle and stress of everyday life. Allow yourself to fully immerse in the soothing guidance and let go of all distractions.
Important Note: This hypnosis session should not be used while driving, operating machinery, or in any situation where alertness is required. Always find a comfortable, quiet place where you can fully relax and enjoy the session.
Disclaimer: This guided hypnosis session is for relaxation purposes only and is not a substitute for medical treatment or psychological therapy. Consult a licensed professional if you’re dealing with serious mental health conditions.

Ep72 - Saying No To My Iphone! - The R.Y.S.E Podcast

I’m ditching my iPhone.
 
I fucking hate how much I’m on my phone.
 
I fucking hate how many times my girls have to wait for me to pay attention to them instead of of my fucking phone. I have zero impulse control at the moment and this is one major step towards getting myself in control and being a more present, engaged father and partner.
 
In this episode, we dive deep into the challenges of ADHD and Autistic burnout, focusing on the issues of impulsivity and the constant pull of distractions. If you find yourself endlessly scrolling through social media, losing hours to unproductive activities, or constantly battling the urge to check your phone, you're not alone.
 
We explore how the digital age, with its infinite possibilities for distraction, can exacerbate symptoms of ADHD and Autistic burnout, making it harder to stay focused, productive, and mentally healthy.
 
One unconventional solution we discuss is the drastic decision to switch to a Nokia 1100—a simple, distraction-free phone that strips away the temptation to scroll mindlessly. By eliminating the possibility of distraction, this old-school tech might just be the key to regaining control over your time and mental energy. Join us as we unpack these topics, share personal experiences, and offer practical strategies for managing impulsivity and distractions in a world designed to keep us constantly connected.
 
Whether you’re considering a digital detox or just looking for ways to reduce screen time, this episode is packed with insights to help you take control of your focus and mental well-being.
