Lubomir Arsov is a Bulgarian-Canadian artist and filmmaker based in Toronto, creator of the films IN-SHADOW and KINGDOM — visual journeys through the unconscious that have reached millions.
In this conversation:
The salacious distractions — pornography, false adventure, perpetual healing, productivity worship, and the deeper pull underneath them all.
Serve yourself first — why a man has to master his own feelings and needs before he can truly serve others, and how bypassing yourself turns service into approval-seeking.
Taking custody of matter — the masculine work of bringing conscious awareness into the body, and making space for what you feel without fleeing into the mind.
Victimhood as distraction — the negative pleasure of the story that something was done to you, and the process of completing the past.
Balancing the equation — how many years you spent stacking one side of the scale with injustice, and what it takes to bring equal weight to your own healing.
Eric's death — the avalanche that rewrote everything, and the direct line from tragedy to fatherhood.

What is Into The Wind?
Into the Wind is a podcast about what it means to be fully alive. Host Ari in the Air — paragliding instructor & men's coach — sits down with philosophers, thinkers, and adventure athletes to ask the questions men today need to ask. And occasionally, he takes a real coaching call live, so you can hear what happens when a man stops managing his life and starts facing it. This show is for adventurous men who want to be fully themselves, love deeply and have positive impact in the world.
