He also shares how Shaolin teachings apply far beyond fighting, through movement, meditation, mindfulness, recovery, balance, and everyday presence.

In today's episode, Jordan sits down with Garrain Asé for a raw conversation about marriage, collapse and rebuilding from the ground up. Garrain opens up about the recent separation from his wife Blair, the four months he spent living alone in the family home, and the ego and old patterns he had to surrender to bring his marriage back. He traces his path from a twelve year prison sentence and a record deal through homelessness, near total despair and the public reckoning that first gave his story purpose. The conversation moves into the work Garrain now teaches around the world, from healing the wounded inner child to his belief that adults are simply deteriorated children still running programs installed in their first seven years. He breaks down his concept of death portals, the major collapses that precede real growth, and shares the exact words from Blair that pulled him back into the marriage. He also unpacks forgiveness as a matter of frequency rather than action, the emptiness that so often sits behind financial success, and why vulnerability rather than strength was the thing that ultimately saved his life. This is a conversation about humility, honesty and what it actually takes to become the man your family needs. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
