An Evolving Man Podcast # 1 - Rod Boothroyd - Warrior, Magician, Lover, King - An Introduction To the Mature Masculine Archetypes
An Evolving Man (AEM) Podcast is for men who want to grow, evolve and want support in learning how to do this.
Every few weeks there will be an interview around men's topics ranging from self-development, relationships, spirituality, archetypes, and men's work featuring authors and leaders in this field.
The sense with these interviews is to support men during these times of change. What are the teachings, tools and practices that you can use to help you through these turbulent times?

In the first podcast I interview Rod Boothroyd who is a counsellor, psychotherapist, a certified “Healing The Shadow” practitioner and the author of the book Warrior, Magician, Lover, King – A Guide To The Male Archetypes Updated for the 21st Century.
Rod works with men, women and mixed groups. He offers 1-1 and group work to help heal the wounds of childhood with Marianne Hill.
Today we talk about the archetypes. These primal energies which effects us and the world around so heavily especially in these times.
In this interview I ask Rod to introduce the mature masculine energies of the King, Magician, Warrior and Lover and how they appear in our lives.
What can we do to connect more with the benevolent qualities and heal the negative sides?
Some of the questions he answers are: 1. What are the archetypes? 2. How do they impact our lives as men? 3. What are the main different mature masculine archetypes in brief? 4. How are they imbalanced now? Moore & Gillette mention in their book KMWL that the main imbalance is in the Lover quadrant. In your book you mention that it is now the King. How has this changed? What can we do as men to redress the imbalance? 5. How can we use the archetypes to help us through these troubled times? 6. "With such big forces at play, how do the archetypes especially the warrior fit with the idea of peace and love? Should the warrior be prepared to fight for his families, and his communities for humanities future?" 7. In more depth (if there is time) what are the archetypes in the positive and the negative. How do we connect to the positive side? How do we heal the negative side? 8. How do people find out more about you and the work that you do?
