Donald Roberts should not be here today if you look at the adversity he experienced as a child and young man. In this episode of the Sacred Village Podcast, Mark interviews old friend Steve aka Donald aka Coyote, not realizing that last weeks episode would segue perfectly into the story of a man who should not have found his way home. They explore themes of trauma, recovery, and the transformative power of storytelling. They discuss the impact of the Presence Process, a rite of passage that helped them navigate their emotions and experiences. Coyote shares his journey from a troubled childhood marked by trauma and homelessness to finding purpose in the film industry and using his voice to tell meaningful stories. The conversation delves into the importance of community, healthy masculinity, and the role of art in fostering hope and change.
