  • Ancient Solutions to Modern Problems with Chris Thier
    Dec 12 2025

    This episode features a deeply personal and reflective conversation between Marcus Farris and Chris, who shares the story of a life chapter defined by upheaval, self-discovery, spiritual exploration, and healing. After the sudden end of a long-term relationship, Chris enters a period of awakening where he confronts identity, trauma, purpose, and his lifelong pattern of serving others while neglecting himself.

    Chris explains how conscious connected breathwork, yoga philosophy, somatic processing, and community helped him reorient toward authenticity and self-love. Marcus and Chris explore universal struggles: identity loss, moral injury, the human need for community, rites of passage, vulnerability, receiving help, and the role of ancient traditions in modern mental and spiritual healing.

    The episode closes with reflections on supporting veterans, Mission 22’s vision for growth, and the hope for healing within families, communities, and individuals.
