We are so glad you have joined us to convene around the virtual table where we center food as connection, storytelling as medicine, and pleasure as resistance!
This episode features Certified Professional Men’s Coach, facilitator, and teacher, Mike Sagun. Mike facilitates EVRYMAN's FUNDAMENTALS program -- a monthly virtual experiential intensive program that helps men develop and strengthen emotional intelligence and he leads men's retreats all over the United States. His work is simple: he helps men feel. Mike is currently launching a brand new retreat in Mexico in February 2023! This exclusive experience will be an opportunity for men to let go of energetic weight and reset their nervous systems. The impact of Mike’s work has a ripple effect well beyond his clients -his work truly impacts families, friendships, and communities.
Mike shares his special Golden Milk Smoothie recipe with us. This recipe is inspired by the traditional Indian drink made with tumeric, cinnamon, ginger, and other spices. These spices come together to soothe the gut and reduce inflammation. Mike transforms golden milk into a smoothie that can be enjoyed as a meal or after a workout.
Mike also shares stories and history about his Filipino ancestry, learnings from his immigrant family, and what it was like growing up in the US and discovering the many facets of Self. Mike currently lives in the iconic little town of San Miguel de Allende, Mexico with his husband and pitbull rescue. When he's not working with men, he's probably tending to his plants and garden, moving his body, watching the Golden State Warriors, or in the kitchen cooking a meal.
About this podcast: Each episode of This American Rice features one of our favorite co-conspirators who will share personal stories about the (sometimes messy) intersections of culture and identity, personal practices, and a delicious recipe we can all enjoy together. By sharing these simplest of pleasures we are weeding out the legacy of manifest destiny.
