From office jobs and wild nights out to becoming a meditation teacher and creating one of the UK’s most heartfelt conscious festivals — this is the inspiring journey of Alex Dudgon.

In this episode, Alex opens up about the profound experiences that shifted his path: a powerful spiritual encounter with a 7-foot black angel that arrived during a deeply tender time in his life, igniting his awakening and setting him on a new course. What followed was a beautiful transformation — trading the grind for inner stillness, stepping into meditation teaching, and eventually founding Soul Revolution Festival.

We explore how these moments led him to create a space where people can come together in unity, honouring both our differences and our shared humanity. With the 2026 festival theme Unity & Oneness fast approaching (22–26 May at Weston Park), Alex shares the heart behind this intimate, community-focused gathering — a weekend designed for deep connection, healing, renewal, and remembering who we truly are.

Expect honest, uplifting reflections on personal evolution, the courage to turn inward, facing life with openness and compassion, and building a movement that nurtures wholeness in a divided world.

If you’ve ever felt called toward something deeper or wondered how one unexpected moment can redirect an entire life, this conversation will leave you inspired.

Come with an open heart and join the Soul Revolution.

Some people chase trends. Some people brew coffee. Marjory Carrero? She channels the ancient magic of Venezuelan cacao into pure, soul-stirring wellness.

A mate down in London wouldn’t shut up about her Amazonik Cacao, so I hit up Marjory, sampled the goods, and bam—I was sold. Had to partner up, stock it in my Meditation with Michael store, and spread the love. (Pro tip: Those nibs on porridge? Game-changer. And the husk tea? Cosy as a hug.)

In this chat, we unpack her wild pivot from Olympic and World Cup hustles to reclaiming her roots amid Venezuela’s turmoil. That 2017 retreat where cacao yanked her back after 15 years abroad? Pure turning point—turning crisis into joy, healing, and grassroots vibes. We get real on bridging Venezuelan heritage with UK life, ethical sourcing, sustainability, and those ceremonies that nurture body, mind, soul, and a cheeky spark of intimacy.

Fun stories on blending cacao into everyday rituals, raw feels on distance and belonging, and that warm pull of purpose. No fluff—just heart, hustle, and a reminder that connection starts with a sip. Open your heart to Mama Cacao.

Some people make music. Some people make art. Arachai Haorang makes portals.

He loops sounds, ties knots, builds talismans, and somehow turns it all into a kind of magic that doesn’t take itself too seriously — even if it is a bit otherworldly.

I first saw him perform at Ignite Festival and immediately thought: who on earth is that — and how do I get more of them? Fast forward to this conversation, and we’re diving into how he ended up making sound journeys, running all-night healing events, and travelling the world with a drum as a backpack, full of everything he owned.

We talk about music as medicine (without the guru voice), the intentionality behind the jewellery he makes, and how his life ended up being shaped more by intuition than spreadsheets. There’s humour, honesty, and a healthy dose of awe — but no preaching.

If you’ve crossed paths with Arachai before, you’ll know. If you haven’t, buckle up. This one’s got range.
