EP 63 - Mastering the Masculine with Mike Salemi

Mike Salemi has been a force to be reckoned with in nearly every pursuit he has chosen... and now, as a father, he seems fit to this most dynamic of tasks.

 

I sought Mike out because of how he shows up as a leader for Men, presenting the most useful and universal messages on his chosen platforms. When Mike appeared as a visiting expert for my recent men's work, I was struck by his earnest desire to make an impact, without forcing anything - just simply bringing the best he could offer (which was a great deal). His genuine curiosity for the practice of breath work has proved to be a very dynamic tool in the toolbox of any athlete, but also, for men who are called to hold space for their loved ones amidst life's array of challenges.

 

In anticipation of this podcast, I was intent on exploring his particular role as an organizer of men's communities, as well as his epic journey from competitive athlete to high-level coach, a terrific Hero's Journey. 

 

In this intersation, we discussed:

• The importance of integration
