Desire with Kianga Ford (Ep14)

Thank you from the bottom of my heart to my precious friend Kianga Ford for taking time to have this incredible conversation with me on the WholeMan Podcast. It was truly inspiring and an honor to spend time witnessing the beauty that is this incredible human being. For many reasons Kianga is a precious part of my story, not least of which is that she was my first guest on the podcast.

We discussed desire, masculine feminine relating, the beast inside every man, different perspective on truth, and personal experiences. I cried multiple times in our conversation which is a testament to the beauty and calm and protection Kianga brings wherever she goes.

I learned so much from Kianga in this conversation including getting challenged on my hyper masculine perspective of truth, the gift of honesty, a deepening perspective of what personal honesty really is, a new perspective and analogy for the beast inside of me, and much much more.

My favorite moment in our conversation was getting to recount an interaction Kianga and I had where she brought such powerful, gentle feminine fire that it reminded me of the value I bring to the world and to the feminine beings I interact with.

I can’t tell you what an honor it is to be able to have conversations like this with the most beautiful people on Earth. Kianga will forever be etched in my consciousness as a friend, a fellow traveler and a precious part of my experience on this Earth.
