Cator Sparks is a life coach for men. All men. With a focus on queer men. Certified through CTI and the International Coaching Federation, Cator also works for EVRYMAN leading retreats and facilitating their weekly GBTQ + men's group. Before stepping into the coaching world, Cator spent 20 years in NYC where he was a writer and editor at various publications.In this interview we start by taking a trip down memory lane, recalling our days connecting in NYC as part of the fashion world and nightlife glitterati. And we both share our stories of how we transitioned from that kind of work and lifestyle into the work and lifestyle we’re  each experiencing now.  Next we describe the ways working with coaches helped and influenced us on our individual paths.  We then get into the power of psychedelics and the importance of psychedelics integration.  And we chat about the possibility of seeing the world through a spiritual lens. Then, we discuss men’s work and the value of straight men working with gay men as coaches.  We talk about gay men being a stand for being heart-centered, for and for being vulnerability, and for being in touch with our emotions. We end sharing about the value of retreats for for GBTQ men.Learn more about Cator here- https://www.catorsparkscoaching.com/And his upcoming retreat here- https://www.wetravel.com/trips/gbtq-retreat-at-easton-mountain-mike-sagun-greenwich-52919054Learn more about Wil's retreats here-https://www.wil-fullyliving.com/eventsSupport the show
