Recently Divine and his Courage Foundation team set a world record by completing over 22 million burpees to raise awareness, support, and funding for our Veteran heroes.
Today’s episode shares the pinnacle of Mark’s philosophy - that the mind is the most powerful tool we have to support our embodied self-awareness, which can lead us to a deeper awareness, and accessing the truth of who we are as individuals, as a collective, and as a consciousness.
Mark also discusses his vision of the future - where we’re heading with the breakdown of institutions, and the incarnation and evolution of those here to support the bigger mission and movement of humanity.
This is an exceptional and wide-ranging, philosophical discussion with a thought leader, and a compassionate warrior sage. Enjoy!

Today, The Unveil Podcast welcomes another Victoria - Victoria Rose - certified pre- and perinatal educator, birth visionary, traditional birth witness and consultant, reiki master for fertility, pregnancy, birth and postpartum, ayahuasca preparation and integration specialist, and founder of Luminous Birth.
Victoria guides adults back to heal and deeply re-imprint their own birth, pre-birth, conception and pre-conception experiences as an effective way resolving fertility blockages, consciously conceiving, and coming back into right-relationship with nature, pregnancy, birth and life.
Victoria has been deeply steeped in ancient amazonian healing traditions for nearly a decade. She’s completed many “Master Plant Dieta’s” and has spent extensive periods of time learning and working alongside her teachers, indigenous master healers. Her experience in the jungle has included working as a retreat facilitator at Riosbo Healing and Research Center, where the first-ever government funded epigenetic studies are being hosted - looking at the impacts of Ayahuasca on mental health and DNA expression, specifically related to early childhood trauma.
Victoria passionately and authentically weaves the wisdom of plant consciousness, pre- and perinatal psychology and health, and sacred birthing in a way that welcomes a new and sophisticated language of healing and evokes true inspiration for our capacity to create a new world.
This is what the Victorias discuss on today’s episode - in-depth observations on the nature of birth, transitions, integration and the wisdom of earth medicine to inform the human experience.
Victoria Rose shares how wisdom gained from the experiences of plant-led initiations are similar to the human birthing (and dying) stories. And she shares her growing work around shepherding the integration and evolution of individuals and families through the reclaiming of their own brith stories to nurture themselves, and the humans they are bringing to the world.
