Earlier this year my wife, Peyton, was prepping to attend a Bee The Wellness Retreat when she sent a subtle invitation my way—knowing that there were many adventures planned within this retreat that were quite outside of my comfort zone—and spoiler alert, I had the time of my life. It’s no secret that I have experimented with many spiritual medicines and retreats, yet this one created space for me to experience one of my most genuine connections to self and others. During the festival, the facilitators held a panel on how they each have created a life that they are in love with and the obstacles that presented themselves along the way.

Theo Rossi joins us on TGU to share his unique journey of life and personal experience in the entertainment industry.

Have you ever experienced a calamity that seemingly optimized your life? From Wall Street to biodynamic farming, Jared Pickard and his wife tended to one of our country's only biodynamic farm; until earlier this year when fires seized control. No doubt this was an incredibly traumatic experience witnessing their home and business be stripped from them, however, some place inside of him felt that maybe this was all part of something larger. Shortly after, when depression sank in, he found himself returning to one thing he knew could use some tending to – self care. And wildly enough, one of the few things that survived the fires was a surprise trunk full of their skincare serum that they had produced via the resources from their farm. Jared, Eben and I dive into... → Why organic farming isn't always healthy → The intimate relationship between earth care and self care → Interacting with food as a positive feedback loop → The importance of having dreams and desires through turbulent waters → Practicing the skill of shifting from narrow focus to open focus → And more!
