Shownotes   Why relational work has the ability to heal things that solo work can’t How to be fully present with what’s true in the moment Why deeper inquiry into yourself is at the heart of the spiritual journey The beautiful thing about disintegration and why it’s so important Why hiding your power creates disarray Tom’s top advice for connecting with yourself on a deeper level   Bio   From a young age, Tom Slater sought to learn through direct experience, a path that has taken him across the globe, immersing himself in many traditional and indigenous cultures. His quest to understand himself and the life he was experiencing led him to explore the very nature of his existence, often guiding him down challenging paths, including struggles with addiction and depression.   Through this deep exploration, Tom gradually opened up to a more profound connection with his own humanity, confronting the limitations that prevented him from fully feeling and embracing it. His personal journey has taught him invaluable lessons, enabling him to be present with others in a spontaneous and creative way, facilitating their own process of discovery.   Tom’s work, particularly through The Sapience Retreat, focuses on helping individuals integrate all aspects of their being – mental, emotional, physical, social, and spiritual – in a way that fosters a true sense of homecoming, both within themselves and in connection with others. At the heart of his approach is cultivating an open awareness and a deep sense of choice, empowering people to show up more fully and authentically in life.   Learn more about Tom and The Sapience Retreat on his website.   Timestamps   00:00:54 - Guest introduction 00:05:46 - Tom describes what a “meeting” is in his work 00:09:54 - A meeting can be any flavor of energy 00:13:36 - The heart of this work is to have less and less resistance to what’s happening 00:14:07 - Sign up for Layla’s newsletter at LaylaMartin.com 00:16:59 - Relational work has the ability to heal things that solo work can’t 00:18:44 - The various traps humans get caught in 00:20:19 - Why deeper inquiry into yourself is at the heart of the spiritual journey 00:23:01 - Layla summarizes spiral dynamics  00:26:41 - The beautiful thing about disintegration and why it’s so important 00:29:27 - Discover the VITA™ Sex, Love and Relationship Coaching Certification  00:31:20 - Layla describes her experience with the beige stage 00:35:10 - Trust and safety only exist in this moment 00:39:51 - The power of unconditional somatic connection 00:40:40 - Layla and Tom drink MOOD SEX MAGIC™ 00:43:20 - Layla talks about her “Reclamation in the Red Stage” 00:51:30 - When we hide our power, it can become a force that creates disarray 00:55:23 - Discover MOOD SEX MAGIC 00:58:35 - How to be present with what’s true in the moment 01:01:09 - Layla shares about her entity removal at The Sapience Retreat 01:08:08 - What Tom whispered to Layla’s inner little girl 01:10:55 - Enhance your sensitivity and pleasure inside Crystal Pleasure 01:11:46 - Reach your full pleasure capacity with Men’s Sexual Mastery 01:13:40 - We don’t have to become cosmic starchildren to touch magic 01:17:39 - Just meeting each other as humans is the most advanced thing we can do 01:21:48 - Tom’s top advice for connecting with yourself on a deeper level 01:25:42 - Layla shares about the stuffed animal she used to carry 01:27:46 - Conclusion

Based in Austin, TX, he works with individuals and couples to uncover what stands in the way of lasting change – and how to meet those blocks with presence, compassion, and courage. His work is deeply rooted in Internal Family Systems and a profound curiosity about how people evolve.   Before turning his focus inward, Ryan was the founder of Raaka Chocolate, a Brooklyn-based bean-to-bar company built on transparency and ethical sourcing.
