One World in a New World with Mac McGregor - Author, World Champion, The Gender Sensei

This is an apocalyptic chat you'll love! Mac is a world champion martial artist who promotes the value of diversity, a transformation from growing up in the

Bible Belt of the U.S. as a female. He's got a great sense of humor, too. You'll find the conversation insightful, warm and vulnerable.

He speaks of the tendency to put people in boxes; just never seemed to fit. He saw early how the 'God is love' had a big 'but' after it, especially for the lbtqia community. His work, through Positive Masculinity, reflects an inspired evo-leap in behavior in others toward diversity and inclusion.

Mac's story is circuitous and complementary, weaving through constrictive belief systems, with insatiable curiosity and many trips to the principal's office in parochial school. He shares realizations along the way from his continued curiosity and desire for making sense.

His two questions, from very young, were, 'What am I here?,' and, 'What is my purpose?' What are yours? Are you having challenges with identity? Nonbinary and transgender identity may be a choice for you.

Our conversation is a jovial dive into the follies and foibles of being stuck in old paradigms. He notes at 16, reading Leo Buscaglia, Course in Miracles and Elizabeth Kubler-Ross nurtured his inquiry.

Zen shares his introduction to an inner voice at 4. Mac opens up and shares an early Out-of-Body Experience that you'll find insightful. The next occurred during a competition, after over a dozen matches in one day.

His description and the conversation that evolves speaks to the understanding and use of energy. His shares how he demonstrated 'combat chi' on Ripley's Believe It or Not. The sharing of his feats is mind-blowing. You'll be fascinated at the first-hand account of what is possible.

Zen moves the needle a bit more sharing a story about bi-location, which prompts Mac to acknowledge the deep responsibility for the use of energy and sacredness of it.

A brief discussion of the Live and Let Live Movement moves Mac to sharing that we shouldn't be threatened by others if we are secure in who we are. His journey and understanding of diversity is way beyond the norm. It's quite moving.

Speaking of moving, Mac shares a life-changing experience he has in his 30s. It's about caring for a mentally ill mother for most of his life, being the oldest of five children. The former self was also in transition to the present self, and the need for advocacy for diversity and inclusion.

It's heart-wrenching and transcendent, too. The conversation continues with a wonderful flow of diving deep and making sense. Many are faced with challenging body identity and the misunderstandings of others. We're all just people, after all. Thanks for your attention and time.
