Brotherhood is the Medicine
Life is a Festival #106: Adam Jackson (Sacred Sons)
Listen to the Podcast
Recently, in the bouldered desert outside of San Diego, I joined the Embodied Masculine Experience created by Sacred Sons. Today on the podcast, I’m honored to bring you the co-founder and the voice of Sacred Sons, Adam Jackson, for a deep dive on modern mens work.
On the show we discuss the need for embodied masculinity and the evolution of Sacred Sons from the Mythopoetic Mens Movement and the Mankind Project to today. Adam describes mens work and the philosophy behind the organization. Then we get into my experience at the gathering from ritual connection in a cave to ritual combat in the “Brotherdome.” We finish our conversation with the Father’s Circle and how to integrate this work.
Adam is the Director of Operations & Co-Founder as well as the host of the Sacred Sons podcast. His spiritual background includes Inipi (Sweat Lodge), men’s circles, plant medicine ceremonies, and transformational gatherings. He is fittingly known by his brothers as Lionheart.
Sacred Sons is offering a series of gatherings across the United States in the month of September if you or a man you love are interested.
