Robert sits down with Aaron Alexander, author, movement expert, and creator of the Align Method, for a raw and reflective conversation on what it truly means to live a life in alignment.
From minimizing his life to a single backpack to rethinking material success, Aaron shares how letting go of physical and emotional baggage can open the door to real freedom and presence. They explore nervous system regulation, the power of breath, and how subtle changes in posture and awareness can transform your entire life experience.
This conversation goes beyond fitness, touching on relationships, emotional healing, identity, and the collective shift toward authenticity. With insights drawn from movement science, ancient wisdom, and personal awakening, Aaron and Robert invite you to slow down, breathe deeper, and reconnect to what matters.
Let go of what weighs you down. Return to what makes you whole.
