Thank you for visiting my podcast.I tell a wide range of stories - particularly the truly ancient creation stories of indigenous peoples, often learning these direct from shaman storytellers in many tribal lands. These stories have been fireside tales, shared by elders for up to 50,000 years of oral tradition. Within them are keys to unlock your true potential and dissolve fear and disease. They are the gatekeepers to the manifestation of your dreams.I am the father to four children, now all adults. I was midwife at their births.Before becoming a dad I worked for Greenpeace in both Australia and the USA. Most famously I helped to spearhead the campaign which one year turned back the entire Japanese whaling fleet. I was one of four trustees who founded a charity which has now built a residential school for Himalayan children, protecting them from threats such as dire poverty and trafficking.I know the Power of Story. I have used it to beat stage 3 cancer. I have used it to save myself while stuck in quicksand. And I have used it to transform the lives of countless people, who have been in my live audiences during my never-ending Master Storyteller tour.Under the name The Man From Story Mountain, since the year 1995 I have been a touring as a Master Storyteller.I have been Storyteller-In-Residence for the mental health charity Mind, and also on the famous Golden Hinde Museum (a life-size working replica of Sir Francis Drake's famous pirate galleon, commissioned by Queen Elizabeth II).

11 Nov 2024 | Looking back one year to Armistice Day 2023 Special: Peace Pigeons / Chapter 10 of my novel War Pigeons. | 01:04:12 | |
This special edition of The Man From Story Mountain podcast carries a dual purpose: firstly, to pay my respects to those who fell in World War 1 as today (November 11, Armistice Day) marks the anniversary of the day that war ended; secondly, to continue playing my part for the ending of the conflicts which are currently raging in Gaza, Ukraine, and other arenas of war worldwide. Since this episode was recorded, the conflict has spread to Lebanon, Iran, and other countries; Korean soldiers have joined Russian forces in Ukraine. This podcast episode represents a stark warning that we forget history's lessons at our dire peril. It looks at THE Armistice Day of November 11, 1918 through the eyes of my historical-fiction novel 'War Pigeons: WP&Me'. The wonderful voice of narrator Rafe Beckley reads Chapter 10: 'Peace Pigeons' . This novel, written for young adults, was my attempt to celebrate continuing peace, and was originally published as a paperback on the centennial of the ending of the First World War. It follows a London family and how the war impacted their lives, Chapter 10 sees peace come at last and the declaration of the Armistice.

02 Dec 2024 | Matt Follain's 'Myth To Miracle' story | 00:40:22 | |
You just can't keep some champions down! Matt Follain was a single father and pro-fighter, martial arts journalist and even featured in some martial arts films on the big screen. He ran a busy martial arts school and cage-fight team when suddenly his life was turned upside down with a horrific incident. A car sped over him and dragged him along the street. Matt sustained life-changing injuries including the loss of a foot. This led to daily chronic pain, long term hospitalisations, and a sense of despair over the loss of his identity as a hands-on dad and martial arts instructor. Matt discusses these themes, along with how he became addicted to the opiod pharmaceuticals prescribed by his doctors. Only when he had a seizure in front of his daughter did Matt take up the challenge to halt his addiction, then discover the path to a new life where breathwork and meditation helped him to regain control of his pain and identity.

What is the Voice to Parliament referendum being held in Australia on 14th October 2023? The Voice to Parliament referendum was proposed by First Nations people about the best way to achieve constitutional recognition of Indigenous people in Australia. Under the constitution, the government already has the power to make laws for Indigenous people. The voice would be a way for them to be consulted on those laws.But not all Indigenous Australians will be voting YES. In this podcast episode I share some personal stories about my dealings and interactions with Aboriginal Australian communities and individuals.
