Shaolin Master Explains the Year of the Fire Horse: ‘Only A Few Know This..’ | Shi Heng Yi (Most Replayed Moment)
Inspire change.Show Notes
Shi Heng Yi explaining the meaning of the year of the Fire Horse is one of the most replayed moments from his full conversation on the podcast, a segment listeners keep returning to.
In this popular clip from the full interview, Shi Heng Yi explains why the year of the snake became a year of release for him, and why moving on from an old version of himself felt less like loss and more like possibility. He speaks candidly about leaving surroundings he had known for years, relocating from Germany where the temple is based, and reshaping his daily life around his wife and his son.
Shi Heng Yi reflects on how the identity he once held was shattered across many different layers, from the temple he built up to the masters he trained alongside, and how he chose acceptance over resistance. Drawing on the idea that something old must go in order for something new to arrive, he describes the difference between forcing change and allowing it to happen effortlessly, right in front of your eyes.
Looking ahead to the year of the fire horse, Shi Heng Yi shares a striking perspective on energy and authenticity. Fire can fuel you or it can burn you, and the deciding factor is whether you move through the year as your authentic self. He talks openly about no longer needing validation, no longer feeling the urge to prove anything to anyone, and what it truly means to know who you are and stand fully behind it.

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
