   NC 18: Wisdom Sequestered from an Ancient Landscape - Peter Andrews OAM

   What an honour to sit with such an Elder in Peter Andrews OAM. I was joined with my sister Danielle and her partner Charles Body to have a beautiful conversation with Peter. I’m reminded of a quote I read from Caitlyn Johnson “Whomever controls the narrative controls the people” and the understanding of this is so pertinent when cracking open “popular” agendas. This chat with Peter is a perfect example of cracking the narrative and introducing, at the very least, a conversation that entertains possibilities beyond current agendas. We delve into the incredible uniqueness of the continent of Australia. A continent that, in Peters eyes, holds the blueprint of how to create an incredible harmonious and fertile land, beyond what was there prior to humanity arriving. We touch on the impact of the flora and fauna with the use of fire, clearing and farming techniques imposed on what was a balanced, climate perfect ecosystem. Peter takes us through simple, yet powerful insight into the heating of the land, how water has been managed and sequestered dysfunctionally; that the gum tree is a sign of poor soil and ways to move water and nutrients throughout the environment. Peter also discusses how he witnessed the impact of a biodiverse pasture creating 5 champion racehorses and terminally sick cattle returning to optimised health. All this wisdom has been gleaned from the greatest experiment and successful demonstration being the Australian continent. For decades, Peter has been bringing these insights forward and I can hear the frustration he has with the falling on conveniently deaf ears at the bureaucratic level. For me, I see that dynamic change occurs from the groundswell of critical thinking at an individual level, and Peter still has hopes that the political stage and scientific establishment need to be the way forward. This is more than a theory for Peter with a lifetime of evidence through application of this wisdom in many farms and rural holdings. As a lot of us have developed a healthy critical thinking barometer of popular narratives, this is a conversation that invites you to also delve deeper into our stewardship of this amazing earth.

   NC 17: Curating Our Life - Anita Toi

   Anita is one of those gorgeous Sols where her presence just invites a calmness and grounding to come forward. Anita reached out to me after hearing one of my podcasts and asked if I’d join her on her newly formed inner awakening podcast as a guest. We instantly clicked. I’m so honoured to have another beautiful conversation with Anita. In our conversation we flowed and meandered through so many beautiful topics. We talked about her early years as an Art Curator in Melbourne, then the embracing again of her curious heart to set herself off on a beautiful journey in knowing herself. Archetypes, symbology, astrology and Human Design formed part of this delicious banquet we enjoyed together. Serendipity and synchronicity has been evident in our connection. From Magpies to even realising we actually lived around the corner from each other as kids, many moons ago. Anita Toi is a Soul Alignment Coach based between New Zealand and Australia but works with people all over the world. She specializes in helping people find their purpose, by helping them to strip the layers of conditioning, revealing the True Self that they are here to Be and share with the world. Anita uses the tools of Human Design and Astrology as well as her intuitive gifts to show people the innate gifts and strengths they came into this lifetime with and help point them in the direction of their unique north star. In her coaching practice she incorporates techniques such as story work, energetic healing and breathwork to guide clients through a process of enhanced self-awareness to help them begin to change any narratives that no longer serve their highest purpose. She has come to this work after thirty years in the field of clinical natural health and the healing arts and brings a very holistic viewpoint to what it means to thrive as a Soul having a human physical experience. When she’s not working or devouring books or podcasts on all things Truth, Freedom, health and spirituality, Anita can be found out in the ocean gazing at the horizon from her surfboard trying to call up dolphins to share the waves with. I really encourage anyone wanting to delve into a greater knowing of themselves, having a space held by an incredible coach, to reach out to Anita. www.anitatoi.com (https://www.anitatoi.xn--com-9o0a/) https://www.instagram.com/innerawakeningwithanita/ (https://www.instagram.com/innerawakeningwithanita/%E2%80%9D)

   NC 16: Alchemising Chaos - James Greenshield

   “One person’s chaos is another person’s playground” – James Greenshield We’ll I’m back after a recalibration time for myself and I’m so stoked to launch with a second conversation with an incredible bloke. I’m so honoured to be able to chat with this stella human being again. From my first connection with James about 10 years ago, as a guest presenter for “Grab Life By The Balls”, I’ve found him to be a beacon of inspiration and a demonstration of the Sacred Masculine. James had a massive career of 17 years in the Australian Army, training and leading over 100 men into Iraq. A roadside bomb exploding under his vehicle kicked him into a direction of a deep invitation to know himself. At the point of having a stellar career mapped out and a significant safety net (James articulates this as above him not below him) and reaching the opportunity to be promoted into the rank of Lieutenant Colonel he stepped away, but more so toward his place on the planet. They say when the student is ready the teacher appears. This is so incredibly pertinent for myself as I’ve been experiencing a level of “Chaos” that to me has been unapparelled in my life. There have been many opportunities (and tears) to desperately want to escape my current experience (or perception of it), but there is a knowing that, sitting at the core there is a liberation beyond what I could manipulate from utilisation of old tools/programs. A liberation that creates a beautiful harmony within and ultimately expressed harmonically out. What James brings forward is what I would call the “gaps between the notes”, the place where true harmony abides. James has a way of looking behind the curtain and articulating in “real” language a way of seeing what has been unseen from our own vantage point. In this episode we dive into another nutrient dense conversation on chaos, leadership, union between the form and formless and much more. For us to move forward as an individual and community it must start from a level of realness. So, let’s get real. James is about to launch into an incredible three-month course on Harmonic Teams – Harmonic Leadership Program on the 14th of August 2024. “Conflict is not the issue – So Don’t try and resolve it. The causal issue sits below the surface and the symptom is the conflict. Resolve the conflict, the cause will resurface. Leaders don’t resolve conflicts; they see through them and empower their team to grow from the experience. If you’re a leader wanting to take yourself to the next level, join the Harmonic Leadership program starting 14th Aug.” This course is a beautiful opportunity to delve into you. The team for me is more than just the business environment it’s any environment with a collection of connected individuals. For me family comes to mind. For more information on the course message James via the below links. Sit back and enjoy this chat with James, indulge, share and courageously embrace the incredible Sol you are. Big Love Duncan For further connection with James: https://www.emergentleadersfoundation.org/ (https://www.emergentleadersfoundation.org/) james@emergentleadersfoundation.org (mailto:james@emergentleadersfoundation.org) The intent for these recordings is to be unhomogenised and unpasteurised conversations that aligns with real life. The falling over words, the poise and challenge in moments to understand how to verbalise what’s wanting to come forward, is part of the realness of nutrient dense conversations. So, with that, I have to say I’m embracing and enjoying watching my own clunkiness as I explore my expression through this space. I hope you too hold space for yourself, friends, family, strangers yet to know and myself as we navigate enriched conversations on this journey.

   NC 15: Wisdom of the Land – Danielle MacMartin & Charles Body

   I recorded this conversation just before I launched Nutritious Conversations and it’s one I’m really stoked to now bring to life on the podcast. Danni is my sister and one of the most incredible Sol’s I know. She has such a passion for life and this permeates into all facets of her beautiful presence.  Danni’s partner Charles encapsulates such a healthy expression of the Sacred Masculine. His ability to hold space, not just in their relationship, but in his absolute passion for the land, flora and fauna of this beautiful earth is humbling. I love these two Sol’s immensely and am honoured to be their kin. This conversation is one that will present a deeper enquiry of how do we be the best stewards of  supporting Mother Nature? There are some challenging insight brought forward around how human’s have facilitated the damaging of the land over tens of thousands of years. Danni and Charles live on the south coast of NSW. Their three hundred and sixty acre farm was right in the middle of the path of the fire storm that hit there several years ago. The decimation of native species from one burning event, eludes to asking the question, “Is fire the best way to manage earths environment?”. Couple this with, the pillaging farming practices and the hijacking and perversion of words such as sustainable, natural and organic, we are now at a unique crossroads in the trajectory of our land. This is a great conversation to sit and listen to with an openness, that invites you to question popular narratives around the future of land management. Big Love Duncan The intent for these recordings is to be unhomogenised and unpasteurised conversations that aligns with real life. The falling over words, the poise and challenge in moments to understand how to verbalise what’s wanting to come forward, is part of the realness of nutrient dense conversations. So, with that, I have to say I’m embracing and enjoying watching my own clunkiness as I explore my expression through this space. I hope you too hold space for yourself, friends, family, strangers yet to know and myself as we navigate enriched conversations on this journey. Give me a rating, drop a comment, and share these nutrient dense conversations if they land with you.

   NC 14: Uncaging the Sacred Masculine

   “My aim is to provide a process and a platform for men to feel comfortable to connect deeply with themselves. I believe this is the way to complete health – the mind, body and soul approach.” Jack May From the very first interaction I had with Jack, at a mutual friend’s gym, I could see this bloke was genuine, life loving and heart lead. Having been a chippy, then a healthy food entrepreneur, he morphed again into combining all these facets helping blokes build and nourish their best version of themselves and their lives. Passionate about knowing himself, Jacks all in on creating a living example of his innate expression and the embodiment of the Sacred Masculine. Curiosity, Compassion and Courage is a key to his beautiful expression, which is the premise that underpins his work and incredible coaching space “Wildman Wellness”. I love the question on Jacks webpage (Wildman Wellness): “What will it feel like to spend another 3,6,12 months where you are right now, knowing you could’ve done something about it?” Topics we delve into includes: Understanding our nervous system Internal Family Systems Masculine – Holding space and safety Birth Self-doubt and “Courage to be disliked” (Book he’s also currently reading). Breaking out of the masculine cage The Wildman Wellness space And so much more. This conversation is an invitation to step beyond your inertia into the radical empowered life you deserve to live. Linking in with Jack, through his webpage, is an incredible courageous step you can take to be the embodied version of your best self. Hit play, sit back and enjoy this great chat.

   NC 13: Embracing this Gift Called Life - Phil Pollard

   What a journey Phil has had. From being a trucker to stepping into mindfulness and purpose coaching with adolescence and young adults, then to be handed what Phil would call a gift. A health expression that shattered his perception of who he is in this world, presented Phil with an opportunity to connect into the essence of who is, outside of the stories and narratives that he existed in. I connected with Phil through supporting the holding of space at a “Live in Flow” retreat. From the very first greeting with a hug, I had this awareness in me to hold space for this amazing Sol with a love, attention and tenderness. I may not have put it to words at the time but there was a warmth in me that encouraged me to be really present with him. The expansion and experiences that Phil stepped into was truly inspirational. Phil is an incredible Sol and I’m honoured to have connected in with this courageous Brother as I’m sure you will be too. Big Love and enjoy Duncan The intent for these recordings is to be unhomogenised and unpasteurised conversations that aligns with real life.

   NC 12: Heal Birth Heal the Earth – Calling the Power of Birth Home – Carla Sargent

   Heal Birth Heal the Earth – Calling the Power of Birth Home – Carla Sargent “Carla is New Zealand’s leading authority on birth trauma. Her background in midwifery & her many years of experience in helping people heal from their birth trauma, combines to offer you reliable, compassionate and trusted support.” https://www.healingbirth.co.nz/ (https://www.healingbirth.co.nz/) To encounter the mindset that, for a woman, her body is broken and needs to be outsourced to a model of “care” for her to birth, is creating an epidemic of disempowerment. The catch phrase “We’ll you’ve got a healthy baby” is the go-to rebuttal of anything that challenges accountability, retrospection, and deception of sovereignty. What this inhibits is the potentiality of creating an initiation into the innate power of a woman evolving into the new reality of mother and expression of motherhood.  This “groomed” abdication of the innate woman’s sovereignty is creating a significant setting and experience of destabilisation in connection on multiple levels for the woman, child, parental unit and beyond. “Heal Birth Heal the Earth” is more than a proclamation it is an invitation to call our power and sovereignty home. Carla and I connected through a beautiful mutual friend and my first podcast guest, Lynley. In that first episode, Lynley shared her emotional birth trauma and the healing space that Carla created which empowered her to reclaim this incredible aspect of womanhood. What an amazing and courageous Sol Carla is. It is so evident, through our conversation, that Carla is following her innate calling and tapping into that wisdom to support the healing of birth trauma and empower many women. For me, I can see this is an incredibly pivotal aspect of an individuals, and more so, humanities return to wholeness. In our conversation we share aspects of our experiences of birth, Carla’s incredible ability to hold space, her courage to create a business to support birth trauma healing for woman, what the invitation is for woman to step into for their sovereignty, her amazing mothers courageous innate birth wisdom, fear as a grooming tool to abdicate women’s sovereignty, then the power and privilege of hearing those birth stories of the amazing women who have worked through their birth trauma, as well as so much more. This wisdom is so incredible to share, not just with other mothers but also young woman and future mums and dads to be. I really encourage you to tap into Carla’s podcast “Healing Birth with Carla” or if you would love to reach out to Carla to step into the healing of your own birth trauma’s or would like to be trained to support women through their healing, please connect in via Carla’s website: https://www.healingbirth.co.nz/ (https://www.healingbirth.co.nz/) Also check out Carla’s book “Where The Heart Is – Stories of Home birth in NZ” Big Love.

   NC 10: Sacred Masculine Embodied - Radical Ownership - James Greenshield

   “If we stop saying “I am traumatized” and instead say I’m in a massive period of shifting right now. That has to cause a collapse to occur. Trauma is the collapse of the framework that I currently understand life from.” – James Greenshield From my first connection with James about 10 years ago, as a guest presenter for “Grab Life By The Balls”, I’ve found him to be a beacon of inspiration and a demonstration of the Sacred Masculine. James had a massive career of 17 years in the Australian Army, training and leading over 100 men into Iraq. A roadside bomb exploding under his vehicle kicked him into a direction of a deep invitation to know himself. At the point of having a stellar career mapped out and a significant safety net (James articulates this as above him not below him) and reaching the opportunity to be promoted into the rank of Lieutenant Colonel he stepped away, but more so toward his place on the planet. I’ve had many thoughts and conversations with friends in the past about where is the patterning of the Sacred Masculine. Where are the Elders/Sages/Sovereign Individuals who express, articulate and embody this? This has driven my own evolution into the loving depths of myself and the Wisdom of Divine/Source/Quantum and the expansion of who I am and am becoming. For me, James is an inspired embodiment of the Sacred Masculine, a leader who has Emerged with experiential authority. The real deal. In this episode we dive into a nutrient dense conversation on identity, love, relationships, trauma, archetypes, initiations, birth, wound, death moments and much more. Through this there is an invitation, an inspiration for you to courageously step into the fullness of who and the big why of your existence. This chat wasn’t just a nutritious meal, it was a buffet with a doggy bag, to gift you a taste of your own divine sustenance. Indulge, share and courageously dive into the incredible Sol you are.

    NC 9: Silent Warrior, Premature Menopause and the courage to journey in - Paula Johnson

    “I journey in the world as an eclectic mix of boho hippie, spirited rebel and regular Kiwi gal with a ‘can-do’ attitude…” Paula Johnson What a pleasure to share space with Paula during this conversation. Paula is an incredibly courageous woman navigating the cards that had fallen in a beautifully poetic way. Not surprisingly this led to her writing a book “Silent Warrior”, a very apt title that really demonstrates her realisation of to go through this experience of life it’s fundamentally an inward journey. Her own life-changing catalyst arrived unannounced and unwelcome at the young age of 29, when Paula was diagnosed with Premature Ovarian Failure (https://www.paulajohnsonnz.com/post/menopause-at-the-age-of-29) (Premature Menopause). This diagnosis set her on a journey, delving deep into the mental and emotional, the physical and the spiritual. Finding meaning became her mission – Why? Why had this happened? And the even bigger question – why was I here? I absolutely loved this chat as we flowed through the evolution of her book, what a warrior is, defining courage, premature menopause, gift of heart motherhood, surrendering to the unknown and her gorgeous life expressions in business and empowerment of others. To connect in with Paula with her workshops on writing your own book, Wanderlust website design or grabbing a copy of her amazing book, please jump on her websites to explore more of this amazing woman’s expression in life.

    NC 8: Interview of myself (Inner Awakening Podcast- Anita Toi) - Duncan MacMartin

    So here I am being interviewed by the amazing Anita Toi - Inner Awakening Podcast. Anita has generously shared the interview she did with me and uploaded on her podcast. So I thought it'd be a great way to introduce myself and bit of background that has created the passion to live life fully. The serendipity and synchronicity of our connection is amazing. We found out that we both grew up in a small town in the Dandenongs of Victoria. We were probably at the same school for a year!! Anita lives in NZ now and her passion for life made this chat such a beautiful experience.

    NC 6: Evolution of Purpose - Nathan Maingard

    "Purpose is not about what you are doing, it's about who you are." Nathan Maingard. Nathan Maingard -Transformational Guide, Empowering Wordsmith, & Podcast Host We Are Already Free - is the insight and affirmation that Nathan lives his life from. I first heard about Nathan, not through his amazing music career, but his wise long form poem "We are already free", that went viral through the chaos of 2021. A poem that was inspired to speak wisdom through the clouds of insanity, fear and division. Historically, artist have been the ones to shine light on absurdity, beauty, humanity, politics, and possibilities via their mediums of music and art. But there was an eerie quiet that beckoned for the space to be embraced and expressed into. That poem for me spoke a harmonic resonance into the chaos and opened up almost a question and even a dare "You know you are already free". What a cracking chat with Nathan as we took a meander through his life. From his childhood of barefoot and free, to the world demanding he fit in and bowing his knee to this. But then his courage to surrender and leap into the unknown. We have a beautiful discussion around shame, "the big leap", sabotage patterns, letting go of identities, surrendering to the wisdom of the innate, his passion for holding space and its expression in his coaching space. Nathan is an incredible Sol and such a gift to share space with him in this podcast. To step into this amazing space that Nathan holds please follow these links: https://nathanmaingard.com/ (https://nathanmaingard.com/) https://alreadyfree.me › podcast (https://alreadyfree.me/podcast) Instagram: @nathanmaingard I'd encourage anyone to also jump on to his free 5 day morning routine to calibrate or recalibrate a closer relationship with you - https://nathanmaingard.com/how-to-start-a-morning-routine/ (https://nathanmaingard.com/how-to-start-a-morning-routine/) Big Luv Duncan The intent for these recordings is to be unhomogenised and unpasteurised conversations that aligns with real life. The falling over words, the poise and challenge in moments to understand how to verbalise what’s wanting to come forward, is part of the realness of nutrient dense conversations. So, with that, I have to say I'm embracing and enjoying watching my own clunkiness as I explore my expression through this space.

    NC 5: The Alternate Way To Health - Dr Sarah Farrant

    “We’ll teach them the illusion until they are ready for the truth.” Buddha “Health is not about how you feel, it’s about how you function”. Dr Sarah Farrant. There are pivotal moments in life where you can recall an experience or insight that creates a significant shift and even profound expansion in who you are. This can be through a simple moment of presence, a sentence in a book or a conversation with an incredible Sol. For me, this conversation with Dr Sarah Farrant has been that and more. From the simple insight in the way I greet what I had termed “sickness”, but through the wisdom of Sarah, I now meet as a “health expression”.(Simple words that carry such potency and nutrient density that will invite you to step deeper into the Innate intelligence within.) To the incredible invitation of what is possible in all facets of life. I’ve re-listened to this conversation with Sarah countless times, as what she shares is simply revolutionary in its content and insight. In this nutrient dense discussion, we delve into: Journey in following the innate prompts to embrace an even more expansive life. Uprooting to study Chiropractic in the USA. Exploration of what health is with a redefining of the health categorisations of Allopathic, Alternative and the inclusion of the Alternate as a new expansion to health. Importance of language in unpacking insights. Adjustment vs Treatment Demonstration of the innate wisdom of a health expression #1 best-selling books “The Vital Truth” and “The Health Illusion”. Establishment of Vital-Wellbeing. For a lot of us, we are realising and releasing the illusion of who we are and embracing the less travelled road in our return to wholeness. At times the return to our authenticity seems to be impossible and beyond the veil of what we can see. Then, in moments of divine clarity, there are gifts that demonstrate what is potentially able to be embraced. For me Sarah is that gift. An incredible Sol that has worked intimately from the innate space, authentically expressing a life of beauty and patterning possibilities, inviting you to live an inspired life.

    NC 4: The Inner Gardener - Melissa Wright

    “But I’m nobody” was the first response I had from Melissa after I reached out to record a Nutritious Conversation with her. For me, the thought of sitting down for a chat with this incredible Sol was not about what commercial or ordained offering she had, but the absolute joy I felt at the thought of delving into a wonderful chin wag with her. Melissa is as authentic as they come. She is courageous, humble, expansive, heart lead, humorous and just an awesome Sol to be in the company of. I’ve had the honour of being on the sidelines for part of her journey and have seen the incredible vulnerability and sovereign nature she operates her inner garden from. I so loved our chat and the permission she gave herself to be all in life, oozes through this discussion. You’re in for a treat and give yourself permission to be all in with your life. Big Luv.

    NC 3: Vitality and the Fast Track 2 Health - Karen Creighton

    Natural Health Practitioner and Medical Intuitive – Karen Creighton. “I need chicken” was what Karen said to her husband when her “holistic” health focus didn’t align with her innate wisdom and physiological needs. Over twenty years of training, conditioning, practicing and teaching sat behind this challenging decision to move away from her plant based choices. For a lot of us, when our beliefs and conditionings form our identity and our whole life is built around this, it becomes very challenging to question and step into the unknown. Change most times only occurs when maintaining the status quo is more painful than the perceived pain of letting go of these embodied patterns. Karen is a gorgeous example of embracing curiosity, challenging beliefs and passionately sharing the fruits of her courage with the world around her. It was such an honour to connect in with Karen and share a beautiful nutritious conversation. Topics discussed include Karen’s health practitioner journey in London, move to and setting up Vital Health business in NZ, embracing of always being willing to learn, detox, weight loss, chronic fatigue, menopause, quantum realm just to name a few. She is an incredible Sol who has such wisdom to share. I’d encourage anyone wanting to claim their health power back to connect in with Karen. Further contact with Karen can be made through her website: https://www.vitalityhealth.co.nz/ (https://www.vitalityhealth.co.nz/) Intro Music: Victory by MaxKoMusic | https://maxkomusic.com/ (https://maxkomusic.com/) Music promoted by https://www.chosic.com/free-music/all/ (https://www.chosic.com/free-music/all/) Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported (CC BY-SA 3.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/) Big luv Duncan

    NC 2: ”Do you want to be brave with me?” - Chad Dobson

    “Do you want to be brave with me?” – These were the words Chad had flow into his heart and mind, when his incredible wife Erin, followed her innate direction, calling on her to have another child after the passing of their young son Noah. She didn’t utter those words but the energy and deep connection they had resonated into what Chad experienced as an invitation for him to step courageously forward into life. This conversation is a beautiful insight into the incredible Sol that Chad is and the wisdoms he has embodied to bring an inspiring presence in this world. Humility and love incarnate is what comes to mind when I think about Chad and the realness at which he interprets and indulges in life is pure and soulful. We delve into many areas including: relationships, communications, meditations, offence/defence living, as well as touching on his creation of the group “Help Me stand” a support space in Newcastle for bereaved Dads. Absolutely loved this chat and I’m sure you will be incredible impacted by this nutrient rich conversation. Big Luv.

    NC 1: Revealing the Wise Woman - Lynley Erin Rice

    I couldn’t be happier than to have the honour of launching Nutritious Conversations with such an incredible woman and dear friend Lynley Erin Rice.
