It has been a wild ride.
8 years ago, I was at the height of my self-abuse . The walls of truth were closing in on me.

I was sick, scared, stuck, misguided, lost, insecure and in a lot of pain.
By all societal measures, I was a success and living the American Dream.
I followed all the rules and never asked any questions, this way of life almost killed me. I followed others and rarely thought for myself.

The childhood sexual trauma that I held closely was eating away at my soul, I was slowly poisoning myself with negative thoughts and erroneous beliefs that I lacked the courage to examine and address. My heart was closed off and nearly broken, beaten down from a lifetime of self-abuse and self-betrayal.

I was completely fucked. I lived dishonestly and my word was mostly undependable. I tried everything multiple times to break my patterns to no avail…
But something shifted.
And then I found meditation.
Poof…Presto Chango!
This daily practice helped me to LET GO of what didn’t serve me and has now created abundant opportunities for inspiration to flow from within.

It i s surprisingly simple, let go to let in.
Break down to build up.
These are natural cycles that I have found to align with Universal law. I was missing the mark and unable to see how my wrong thinking was causing all of my heartache and dismay.
I am motivated to share for those that don’t have a voice. My life has changed for the better after committing to serving and helping others push through challenges that I’ve been blessed to move through.
 
Why do I kick the covers off every morning?
 
For the more than 1.5 million US veterans needlessly struggling with PTSD and Depression,
40+/- million American adult survivors of child sex abuse suffering in silence,
43% of American women have sexual dysfunction,
Viagra Sales are off the charts as our warped definition of masculinity now requires a blue pill for the flaccidly impotent,
 
 
I walked away from the money—my soul wasn’t for sale. All of this is for LOVE . All of it.
My personal story has been a savory combination of Stealing Fire, Sex at Dawn and Tribe. Three impactful books that have rocked and shaken my belief systems to its deepest core. I now believe anything is possible, that anything can happen! Even peace.
I am truly grateful for all of life’s blessings. Everything on my path has served as a lesson for growth, for the evolution of my soul and being. 

All that I needed was an earnest step in the direction of my dreams. It all starts with just a step.

Creators and Guests

Host
George Monty
GEORGE MONTY George Monty is a podcaster, interviewer, cultural provocateur, and professional trespasser into forbidden questions. He is the creator and host of TrueLife, an ongoing experiment in conversation conducted somewhere between a philosophical laboratory, a psychedelic séance, and the moment at 3:17 in the morning when you suddenly realize the universe has been fucking with you. The premise is beautifully inconvenient: What if reality is stranger than the story we’ve been given about it? Monty has spent years following that question into the wilderness. Not the wilderness of mountains and rivers, but the stranger wilderness behind the eyes: consciousness, psychedelics, artificial intelligence, mysticism, neuroscience, trauma, addiction, technology, language, mythology, power, culture, death, transformation, and the great unresolved mystery of what the hell a human being actually is. His guests come from wildly different worlds: scientists and mystics, philosophers and psychonauts, artists and technologists, researchers and rebels, therapists and troublemakers, people who have spent decades studying reality and people who have simply stared at it long enough to realize something is wrong with the instruction manual. Monty does not interview people to collect answers. He interviews them to find the questions hiding underneath the answers. That is the rabbit hole. He is interested in the moment certainty begins to fracture. The instant a scientist discovers something their textbook did not prepare them for. The moment a mystic realizes language has become too small. The moment a psychedelic experience rearranges the furniture of the self. The moment artificial intelligence forces us to reconsider what intelligence was in the first place. He is suspicious of finished maps. Suspicious of institutions that confuse authority with truth. Suspicious of anyone who claims to have the universe completely figured out. Especially himself. Monty’s intellectual lineage runs through the beautiful troublemakers: Alan Watts, Terence McKenna, William Blake, Carl Jung, Philip K. Dick, Marshall McLuhan, Rumi, the Upanishads, Joseph Campbell, and the long subterranean tradition of people who looked at consensus reality, raised one eyebrow, and asked: “Is that all you’ve got?” But George Monty is not an academic, guru, therapist, prophet, or self-appointed master of consciousness. He is something considerably more useful: a curious bastard with a microphone. A lifelong student of the strange. A collector of impossible questions. A cartographer of the territory that begins where certainty ends. TrueLife is his laboratory, but the laboratory has no walls. Every conversation becomes another experiment. Every guest another doorway. Every strange idea another match struck in the dark. Sometimes the result is philosophy. Sometimes it is comedy. Sometimes it is terror. Sometimes it is revelation. And sometimes, if you’re lucky, the whole fucking architecture starts to wobble. Because beneath all the conversations, all the books, all the theories, all the psychedelics, all the technology, all the arguments about consciousness and civilization and the future, Monty keeps returning to one primitive human impulse: to look at the mystery without immediately trying to kill it with an explanation. That may be the real rebellion. Not believing everything. Not rejecting everything. But remaining curious enough to walk through the door. TrueLife is the experiment. Conversation is the psychedelic. Curiosity is the contraband. Reality is the rabbit hole. And George Monty is still climbing down.

What is TrueLife?

TRUE LIFE is a long-form descent into the questions that become impossible to ignore once the surface of reality starts to crack.

Hosted by George Monty, TrueLife explores consciousness, psychedelics, neuroscience, artificial intelligence, language, technology, power, culture, philosophy, spirituality, trauma, addiction, human transformation, and the strange future of being human.

For more than six years, George Monty has built TrueLife as an independent media platform, bringing hundreds of long-form conversations to a growing global audience. The podcast has produced 850+ episodes, reached 22M+ YouTube views, built an audience of 40K+ subscribers and followers, and accumulated 160K+ podcast downloads. TrueLife has also been recognized by Listen Notes among the top 5% of podcasts globally.

These are not simply interviews. They are encounters with people who have gone far enough into a subject to discover that the subject changes them. Scientists meet mystics. Artists meet technologists. Researchers meet rebels. The personal collides with the planetary.

The central question: What happens when we stop treating reality as fixed?

Across hundreds of conversations, TrueLife follows recurring territories — consciousness → perception → language → technology → power → transformation → the future of humanity.

For seekers, rebels, researchers, creators, entrepreneurs, and anyone who suspects the official story is incomplete.
