Playing on Life’s Playground with Marc Laws II

Marc Laws II is a Yoga teacher, Ex Pro-Soccer Player, Father, Husband & a pillar of wisdom. He is a man driven by self-discovery, as he explores what it means to play on the playground of Earth.

After being scouted from the USA at a young age to play professional football in England, he has a deep love for the philosophies of football - and how the experience of diligent training & rehearsal VS high intensity gametime is a metaphor for life.

Marc’s sporting & philosophical passion for soccer later transmuted into a discovery & love of yoga, as a modality of movement & deep self-inquiry.

In this episode, Pete & Marc crack out the Chinese tea set & embark on a journey into what it means to curiously explore this human existence - with both ancient philosophy & deep, hearty laughs present.

They explore: - The transformation from boy to man to father, and how Marc had to let parts of him to die to allow other parts to grow

• The similarities between playing professional football in the UK & ancient yogic philosophies

• What does it really mean to “be seen” & to “matter”?

• The influence technology could play on future generations, and how tech evolution could be a path to enlightenment 

• How the traditions of Bali integrate shadow work as part of daily life

• The evolution of music, and what is truly original?

This episode is a deep philosophical exploration mixed with a healthy dose of Dad jokes & slapstick humour
