How to heal a man: Superheroes, shadows & sacred circles - Karl Brooks

In this week's show, Lian is joined by Karl Brooks, a long-term Be Mythical student and a much-loved member of our community within UNIO, whose journey from crisis to reclamation has been one of the most beautiful we've had the honour to witness. Karl has a deep connection with his inner child, who unbeknownst to him had been running most of his life behind the scenes, in his subconscious!  When he began to make the unconscious, conscious, and start asking what his inner child wanted - to feel safe, see, held, respected, loved, all from an unconditional place, he found he held the key too, and no one else could fulfil the void that was 'Karl-shaped'.  He now wants to lead other men that are interested in connecting deeply within themselves, and breaking the patterns of childhood that are still causing havoc in their lives today. In this conversation, Lian and Karl explore the hidden stories that shape our sense of self, and the deep healing that becomes possible when we finally listen to the boy inside the man. Together, they journey through Karl's childhood adventures, his breakdown and awakening, and the tender work of inner reparenting that allowed him to become a man of depth, devotion, and strength. Through rich storytelling and honest reflection, this conversation reveals the generational threads that shape our beliefs about masculinity, love, and identity… and how those threads can be rewoven. Mythic threads weave through the episode: the wounded boy whose gifts were misunderstood, the ruptures passed from father to son, and the healing that happens when those wounds are no longer hidden. This is a conversation for anyone - man or woman - who senses that something essential got lost along the way… and is ready to listen for its return. We'd love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let's carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage. What you'll learn from this episode: Childhood experiences create the inner myths we unconsciously live by, until a rupture or opening invites us to rewrite them. Imagination, when turned inward upon ourselves, can distort our self-perception… or become a tool for healing and reconnection. Healing the inner child allows us to close the ruptures of the past, creating more wholeness in our relationships, our parenting, and our sense of self.
