MEN’S QUEST
Gathering together with men, to reflect and remind each other of the immeasurable qualities of man, has been a core pillar of my life for the past few years.
It’s been a blessing to have been part of so many deeply nourishing gatherings. To sit around the fire, spend time in the elements, to feel in my bones that ancient memory of what brotherhood is all about… these are feelings and memories that have shaped the man I am today.
Since the birth of my daughter 8 months ago, I’ve been dedicated to family and fatherhood.
I’m still waiting for the right moment to offer the next journey.
But I can feel the juices flowing. The time is coming soon.
Watch this space.

🦅 BIRTHRIGHT 🔥
The men and I
We walked the lands
Yuin country
Freshly Scorched
yet rebirthing and soft
Under bare foot
Eagle circles
Fish bites
Abalone surrenders
Deer gifts us his flesh,
And we get down
on our knees
To give thanks
Big sky
West winds
High clouds
Warming sun
we wade through rivers
Listen to stories on the breeze
Track paw prints,
Stalk, sing and honour life
With silent sincerity
Humbled creatures
of the sun
breathing as one
Crying, laughing
Living, dying
Rebirthing, thriving.
And i feel inside me
Ancestral memories
Rekindled
Popping bubbles
in the marrow of my bones
This wild life
Untainted by the
poisoned chalice of convenience
Undiminished by domestication,
living in the web of belonging
Heart beating in harmony
With the Earth
The song of creation whistling
Through my veins.
This feeling,
I know it as my birthright.
