The conversation also tackles the complex topic of masculine spirituality, examining archetypes, and cultural constructs. Additionally, the dialogue emphasizes the vital connection between nature and spirituality and how developing healthy ecological relationships can address current crises.

Host

Greetings! I’m Dr. Nick Mather, host of Rebel Spirit Radio. I have been studying philosophy and religion for over 35 years. I have a B.A. in Philosophy, an M.A. in Religious Studies, and a Ph.D. in Philosophy and Religion. I’ve spent the past 19 years teaching courses in philosophy and religious studies. Before starting on this journey, I worked as a writer for a small family-owned newspaper in a little mountain town in the foothills of Pike’s Peak. I decided to create Rebel Spirit Radio so I could utilize my background in journalism and breadth of knowledge in the world’s wisdom traditions to bring you credible information and  engaging conversations with writers, artists, educators, and spiritual leaders to help nurture your rebel spirit.
