We’ll explore how reconnecting with ancestral principles can help you unlearn what isn’t serving you, rebuild your health from the ground up, and rediscover a deeper sense of vitality.

Whether you’re just starting your healing journey or have been walking this path for years, this event is an opportunity to connect with a global community that’s passionate about truth, resilience, and lasting wellness.

I’m so excited (and honored!) to be one of the keynote speakers this year. My talk will be streamed live online, so you can join from anywhere in the world.

From the Arctic to the Rift Valley, I’ll be diving deep into the world’s true carnivore tribes—what they eat, how they handle dairy (if at all), and what ancestral wisdom still thrives

If you’re curious about healing through tradition, adaptation, and radical simplicity, come join us.

I’ll be in wild company with voices I deeply respect:

…and so many more

Social animals need socials. Stop acting like a Bush Baby. Stop treating friends like they should be koalas.

People protest when solitary animals like sloths are made to be social. Yet with humans, we tell them to “take alone time.”

We are the only social species that sends its wounded off alone to heal.

When someone is physically sick, spiraling, unraveling, grieving—or simply inconveniently human—we call it “growth” to step back.
We say:
“You need to find yourself.”
“Take some space.”
“Focus on you right now.”
As if solitude were some ancient rite of passage.
As if emotional exile were a mark of maturity.

It is not.
It is just abandonment, sanctified by self-help language.

This is not how mammals operate.

Co-regulation is not a preference. It is a physiological necessity.

Human beings stabilize through presence—eye contact, tone, skin, scent, familiarity.

Take that away, and we do not find ourselves.
We dissolve.

📉 Living alone raises suPAR—a biomarker of chronic inflammation and early death.
📉 It flattens cortisol rhythms.
📉 It elevates CRP, IL-6, TNF-α, fibrinogen.
📉 It shifts gene expression toward disease and viral vulnerability.
📉 This happens even without depression. Even if you’re “coping.”

This isn’t psychology.
It’s immunology.

And yet, when people are at their weakest, our culture tells them:

“You have to go through this alone.”

We do not say this to elephants. Or wolves. Or chimpanzees.
Only to humans.
And only in the ultra-modernized zones.

Pain does not require solitude.
It requires safety.
It requires someone who stays in the room.

If you are not that person, do not cloak your absence in enlightenment.

Say nothing wise.

Just say you are leaving.

Because the body hears it either way.

Or don’t go. Give hugs. Give kind eyes. Give time. Give presence. Give soul.
