The Truth About Trauma That No One Tells You (Dr Peter Levine)
When dealing with trauma, many of us turn to meditation, gratitude, plant medicine or spiritual practices – but the trauma responses keep returning.As Dr Peter Levine explains, while these experiences can create portals or moments of bliss, they don't truly resolve the underlying trauma that remains stored in our bodies.To truly heal trauma, we need to take small steps rather than diving straight in, and recognise that healing happens in relationship, both with ourselves and others.Spiritual bypassing keeps us locked in repeating patterns. Our relationships suffer as we project our unresolved trauma onto others or repress emotions. Even outwardly successful people can collapse when facing relationship challenges or loss because the underlying trauma remains unaddressed.As Peter says, bliss can be "a ringing bell that tells you there's work that needs to be done" – a signal to look deeper rather than float away.Peter A Levine, PhD, and Ergos Institute are the leaders in somatic workshops and education.Learn more about Peter's work, Somatic Experiencing® (SE™) trainings, research, free programs, books, and moreDr Levine's books, including his latest book, An Autobiography of Trauma: A Healing Journey is available atErgos InstituteBarnes & NobleAmazon & Amazon UKInner TraditionsBooks a MillionBookshop.orgMentioned in this episode:Evolve – October 3rd, 2025

The Wandering Eye: Why Men Leak Sexual Energy
Constant scanning and chasing novelty are signs a man is leaking sexual energy, and it's a loss of presence and power others can feel. It makes women feel unsafe or unseen, and men themselves feel disconnected, ashamed, and out of alignment. This behaviour is often normalised, but it takes a toll on relationships and personal integrity.In this episode, Lorin lays out four steps men can take to prevent leaking sexual energy, and offers women some language to help understand – but not excuse or condone – men’s behaviour.Mentioned in this episode:Evolve – October 3rd, 2025

Love But No Sex – Why it Happens
After a time, even the most loving couples can feel like roommates rather than lovers. The passion fades, replaced by a daily grind of stress, responsibilities, and routine. Over time, this disconnect starts to feel normal, even as we long for something more.So what can we do to rebuild polarity, and bring back the passion?Masculine partners can focus on being fully present and showing up emotionally. Feminine partners can express vulnerability while maintaining boundaries. Together, they can open the door to connection by taking small, intentional steps towards each other.When we let our disconnects widen, years can pass and the bond between us can weaken. We might wake up one day feeling distant, unsure of how we got here, and overwhelmed by the effort it seems to take to reconnect. The longer this goes on, the harder it is to repair.But you can start by creating just one moment of connection today. It could be holding each other, sharing a vulnerable thought, or simply being fully present in the same space. These small acts have the power to spark something bigger and bring us closer together.Mentioned in this episode:Evolve – October 3rd, 2025

The Masculine Shadow of Control & The Rise of the Feminine
The feminine has been suppressed for too long, which has created imbalance, disconnection, and suffering. Many men feel threatened by women stepping into their power, tying their worth to control and dominance. This dynamic has left both men and women disconnected from their true essence and the sacred balance we need to thrive.The suppression of the feminine has already led to a world filled with greed, destruction, and disconnection from the sacred. Clinging to the old ways only deepens pain and prevents healing for everyone.Men can begin their own healing journey by reflecting on where they might hold onto control or entitlement. Women must continue stepping into their truth without dimming their light. Together, we can create a new paradigm where union and balance lead the way.Mentioned in this episode:Evolve – October 3rd, 2025

From Bad Boy to Spiritual Fuckboy to Awakened Man: The Untold Journey of the Masculine
Unawakened men often either embody the bad boy archetype – driven by ego and validation – or fall into the spiritual bypasser phase, where their wounds are hidden behind spiritual language and practices. Both are rooted in a deep need for external validation, often tied to unresolved wounds with the feminine.Shifting out of this means being honest with ourselves, confronting the emotions and patterns we’ve been avoiding, building a sense of self-worth that isn’t tied to external validation, and focusing on embodying integrity in our actions.When we get stuck in thee unawakened archetypes, life becomes shallow and unfulfilling, relationships lack trust and depth, painful cycles of betrayal, insecurity, and emotional chaos repeat themselves, and we miss out on the chance to experience meaningful connection and purpose.But whether it’s having an honest conversation, making amends, or simply sitting with the discomfort of your own emotions, real change begins when you see the sacred path, and walk it with integrity.Mentioned in this episode:Evolve – October 3rd, 2025
