Edith Ubuntu Chan: Beyond Seeing [King Hero Interview]

Edith Ubuntu Chan: Beyond Seeing [King Hero Interview]

What becomes real when sight extends beyond the eyes? In this King Hero interview, I'm welcoming back Dr. Edith Ubuntu Chan for our third conversation together. Over the past several years, I've watched Edith conduct extraordinary explorations into consciousness, blindfold vision, telepathy, healing, and human potential. Her work raises profound questions about perception, awareness, and the capacities that may lie dormant within us. This conversation ventures into the territory beyond ordinary seeing—into the force of life itself, the nature of consciousness, and the ways our experience of reality changes as our capacity for perception expands. Inside this episode, we explore: • the phenomenon of blindfold vision and mindsight • consciousness beyond conventional sensory perception • telepathy, intuition, and direct knowing • the relationship between awareness and healing • the force of life that animates human experience • how greater seeing changes our relationship with ourselves and the world • the evolution of human potential and consciousness • what Edith has learned from working with children, adults, and whole families activating expanded capacities As always, we'll bring curiosity, direct experience, and a willingness to explore some of the most fascinating questions about what it means to be human. Join us for a conversation that reaches beyond what the eyes can see and into the workings of consciousness itself. About Dr. Edith Ubuntu Chan Dr. Edith Ubuntu Chan is an expert in consciousness and human evolution, a Holistic Chinese Medicine Doctor, author, speaker, and mother of two Luminous Kids. Her journey began in 2003 following a series of meditation-induced mystical experiences that transformed her understanding of human potential. Since then, she has dedicated her life to exploring the intersection of ancient wisdom, consciousness, medicine, and spirituality. Her book SuperWellness, featuring a foreword by Wim Hof, distills decades of clinical experience into practical pathways toward greater health and vitality. In recent years, Dr. Edith has become widely known for her work with Mindsight and Blindfold Perception, supporting children, families, and adults in activating innate perceptual abilities often described as dormant PSI capacities. She has devoted thousands of hours to developing and refining the Luminous Blindfold Vision process. To date, she has facilitated the activation of more than 300 children and families around the world.

Beth of Fresh Air – Episode 31: Re-Tell

Story is food for humans. We spend a lot of time thinking about what nourishes us physically, emotionally, and mentally, yet many people are starving for story. Not only for information, instructions, and guidance. But authentically told story that carries something real and can be the food for something else real to grow. There are all kinds of stories in the world. Stories that shape cultures. Stories that influence behavior. Stories that travel through families, communities, and generations. Stories that programs tell. Stories that become identities. What interests me most are the authentic lived stories of transformation. The stories that reveal something true, that don't ask you to believe anything, but allow you to witness and know how a transformation unfolded in real time. The Nourishment of Story A genuine story carries more than information. It carries experience, wisdom, meaning and a transmission of something that was lived and discovered and overcome. Many of the people I've worked with think no one wants to hear their story. Yet even the most ordinary moments can become deeply nourishing when shared authentically. When a story is told from a place of presence, it becomes something others can recognize in themselves which is a feast for the essence of who we are. What We'll Together Explore * Why story is essential nourishment for human beings * How stories shape perception and experience * The stories programs tell and how they sustain themselves * Authentic stories of transformation * Why people underestimate the value of their own stories * What happens when stories are told and re-told over time * How stories evolve, deepen, and continue to reveal meaning What Inspired Re-Tell Micah Ellars inspired this podcast, and when he can, I’ll have him on for a Part 2—or even Part 3! Today, as I write these notes, I had the honour of hearing more of how his life unfolded. I was hungry and have heard others ask to hear the story behind his wellspring of truth, knowledge, and unique gifts for helping others transform. It was riveting. I was the whole time very aware that there was far more left untold than told. Micah graciously agreed to let me record our conversation and share it with those who are interested in self-remembering and in understanding how he arrived at this place in his life—where he and I are now working together, and where he's bringing his experience in acting, filmmaking, coaching, and teaching into service of that work. He spoke about what led up to our meeting, and the synergy that emerged from it. He talked about what led up to our meeting, and the synergy that came of it. (Stay tune for more on how to see it soon!!!) I think what I enjoyed most about hearing his story was witnessing how seemingly separate threads of a life can reveal a deeper coherence when seen as a whole.

FutureMan | Kery KG Greene | Micah Ellars: Sound, Stage, and Creation on the Hero’s Journey

In this episode of the King Hero’s Journey, we’re deep diving into the Hero’s Journey through the lenses of sound, film, stage, archetype, and creation with an extraordinary panel: Roy “FutureMan” Wooten Kery KG Greene Micah Ellars What brings us together is a shared fascination with the Hero’s Journey as a living structure moving through human experience. FutureMan and Kery explore where sound meets the Hero’s Journey—through rhythm, music, vibration, improvisation, and the unseen architecture beneath creativity itself. Micah brings his perspective from filmmaking, screenwriting, performance, Gurdjieff’s work, and direct exploration of the unconscious and the workings of how art and transformation intersect. And I’ll be listening through my own angle on the Journey as a map of conscious experience—one that reveals the patterns draining life force and offers the possibility of stepping beyond those patterns into freedom. This panel conversation moves across multiple dimensions of creation and consciousness. Inside this episode, we explore: * how the Hero’s Journey shapes sound, visuals, and transformational art * stage and screen performance as archetypal expression * actors, musicians, and creators as living carriers of mythic patterns * octaves and the Fibonacci * the esoteric meaning of creation on the Journey * the relationship between rhythm, consciousness, and transformation * the potential impact of creative work on humanity * where freedom is actually found There’s a point where art stops being entertainment and begins functioning as a medium for growing what’s essentially human. This conversation lives in that territory. And with these three powerful creators together, I suspect we’ll go well beyond the planned conversation and into the unexpected synergies that emerge when deep pattern recognition meets lived creative experience.

I’m Beth Martens—founder of the House of Free Will, pattern hunter, archetype reader, podcaster, author, coach trainer, and  business coach. My calling has truly been a life-or-death matter. After a decade as a corporate VP in my family’s firm, eight transformative trips to India, and a three-year battle with cancer nearly 25 years ago, I turned to archetypes and deep deprogramming work to save my life. Despite doing everything wrong based on limited health knowledge, I accessed the hidden inner roots of what was keeping me sick, stuck, and unconscious. Letting those patterns go changed everything. I went from dying to living almost overnight. Today, I help people who love truth more than their beliefs—people who want to serve with their life’s work and walk their Hero’s Journey—to deprogram the beast system from within and stop unconsciously feeding the forces that harm us. I host the King Hero interview series, where I spotlight leaders, entrepreneurs, movement makers, and lovers of freedom who are carving new paths in a world that desperately needs them. And I also share my own voice, insights, and stories through my new solo podcast, Beth of Fresh Air.

Beth of Fresh Air – Episode 30: Sublimate With Micah Ellars

Sublimate 💫 To sublimate is to refine raw material into a higher expression. To take the friction, experiences, talents, and struggles of life and allow them to become substance for consciousness. This isn’t about superiority over others. It’s about becoming less mechanically run by programs and more connected to the essential inner being that supports real freedom. There is a spiritual worth to that process. A deepening. A remembering. In this episode of Beth of Fresh Air, I’m opening up some of the connections between the octaves in Gurdjieff’s tradition, the Fibonacci sequence I explored with Roy Wooten (and will do further with Micah and a special guest on this coming Monday!), and the living patterns that move through art, transformation, and self-remembering. With Special Guest: Micah Ellars Micah has a rare ability to bring multiple disciplines together into a living process. Filmmaking. Acting coaching. Self-remembering. Inner work. Something new forms through the sublimation of them — a living octave carrying creative and spiritual momentum. We’ll explore how growth in consciousness changes a person’s relationship to identity, pattern, and archetype itself. As someone develops greater freedom internally, they become less mechanically fixed inside archetypal grooves and more capable of movement, creativity, and real choice. What We’ll Explore * Octaves in Gurdjieff’s work * Fibonacci and living growth patterns * Self-remembering and archetypes * Creative sublimation through the arts * Mechanical identity and conscious participation * Freedom and evolving archetypal expression And we’ll allow the conversation itself to become part of the process. This conversation also opens the door into a new workshop series Micah Ellars and I are creating together (stay tuned for details!): Self Remembering with Archetypes The End of the False Self Course: https://www.bethmartens.com/the-end-of-the-false-self [https://www.bethmartens.com/the-end-of-the-false-self] Discover other deprogramming and archetype courses at www.bethmartens.com [http://www.bethmartens.com/] Apply for a zero-cost, one-on-one chat about working together: https://www.bethmartens.com/awaken-your-journey-archetype-application [https://www.bethmartens.com/awaken-your-journey-archetype-application] Find out your King Hero Archetype in ten minutes: https://www.bethmartens.com/king-hero-archetype-quiz-sign-up [https://www.bethmartens.com/king-hero-archetype-quiz-sign-up] Apply to become a House of Free Will Member: https://www.bethmartens.com/house-of-free-will-application [https://www.bethmartens.com/house-of-free-will-application] Do a starter online course: Deprogramming 101 [https://www.bethmartens.com/deprogramming101] or Find Your Sacred Purpose [https://www.bethmartens.com/find-your-sacred-purpose-online-course] https://www.bethmartens.com/deprogramming101 [https://www.bethmartens.com/deprogramming101] https://www.bethmartens.com/find-your-sacred-purpose-online-course [https://www.bethmartens.com/find-your-sacred-purpose-online-course]   *** MORE FROM BETH Sign up for a Hero's Journey Archetype Reading [https://www.bethmartens.com/heros_journey_archetype_reading] Order a copy of my book, ‘Journey: A Map of Archetypes to Find Lost Purpose in a Sea of Meaninglessness’ [https://bit.ly/2k2MT5i] Donate by PayPal if you’re inspired [https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=JMXXKTD29AHWW] If we're just meeting...

Beth of Fresh Air – Episode 29: Synergize With Micah Ellars

The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Synergy is what happens when something new is created through coming together. In groups, it has a recognizable structure: * A common aim and shared intention * Real opportunities for contribution * Individual purpose remaining intact, and something new is born James Hillman called this new thing a daimon — a third being or soul that emerges from the wholeness of two or more parts uniting. It's a result of learning, growing, and being porous to those you unite with. That doesn't mean indiscriminately taking in everything like a democracy, but always aiming to grow and expand knowledge, understanding, and wisdom. There’s a creative momentum to synergy. Something can come alive that no one person could generate alone. With Special Guest: Micah EllarsSynergize 💫 I’m blessed to be joined again by filmmaker, coach, and teacher of George Gurdjieff’s work, Micah Ellars. We’ll explore how his life expresses this kind of coming together — the integration of multiple talents and capacities into something coherent and alive. We’ll share from our experience co-teaching The End of the False Self, and what begins to form when people come together in real work. And we’ll step into synergy live, as the conversation unfolds.
