We are in the era of truth. We are in the time of the hero, and Stephen Donziger is a hero.

He stood up for the indigenous people of Ecuador. He stood up for Gaia against big oil, and he paid the price that many heroes pay.

He was punished ruthlessly, and his story is an incredible story of what it's like when you take a stand

for what you really believe in. So not only are the specifics of his story inspiring and illuminating

as we enter into this new era, but also the meta framework of what it's like to actually

take a stand and the cost that we may have to bear

if we do it. So I hope you guys enjoy this podcast with a hero, Stephen Donziger. Before we get

started, I want to fill you in on a few things happening in my world. First of all, the last

fit for service summit that Vailana and I are hosting is coming up in Malibu.

And if you're interested to experience what this whole fit for service thing is all about,

what this community is that we created, how that you can transform in the embrace of a community

that can hold you through your challenges and also celebrate you through your

triumphs. We're going to have an amazing final gathering with Peter Crone and Layla Martin and all

of our beautiful coaches out in Malibu in January. So if you're interested, head to fitfor-service.com

and join us on this final ride. I also want to let you know

about Sayyu, which you may have heard me talk about on this podcast before. It is an essential oils brand

that I've helped co-create that is really bringing together the best sense of all of these

essential oils harvested in the best way, refined in the best way with all of

the loving intention possible to create worlds that you can step into and these worlds of smell

can bring about the emotions and the feelings and the sensations of stepping into eras or feeling

the power and majesty of valhalla or walking in the

fields of elysium so for anybody who's interested in essential oils please check out sioux dot earth
