105 - How to Realize You Have Nothing to Protect with Peter Clothier

ManKind Project USA Episode 105

In the ManKind Project we talk about Doing the work … When we talk about ‘work,’ we’re talking about the emotional and psychological labor that it takes to become an integrated being. 

What is life like when you discover that the ‘work’ is worth doing … no matter how old you are? 

Peter Clothier is 86 years old. 

Peter Clothier’s latest book, “Dear Harry,” is a deep exploration his relationship with his Father, through letters, it's a confessional of the hidden darkness that men can hold onto for decades, and how the process of engaging with memory and story can create a new way of being … for body, mind, spirit, and soul. 

  • How do we re-narrate and heal our past? 
  • How does sharing with others through confession bring us closer together?
  • How do we create relationships with people who are no longer here? 
  • How can we embrace meditation and contemplation in our pursuit of art … as a way to connect and expand our understanding or art?

Peter’s empathy and compassion flow in his story-telling in such a beautiful and gentle way. This conversation is what happens when eldership is nurtured through practice.
