Thank you! Because of your support, we\\u2019re able to bring you recordings of this caliber and many more to come.

Now, in episode #203, Niles Heckman joins us to discuss his path and his work in a most interesting conversation!

Niles is a documentary photographer and filmmaker, essayist and speaker whose work focuses on themes of ageless wisdom for our modern times. Sharing insights in his films, spoken-word essays, podcast An Infinite Path, alternate media appearances, street photography blog Philosophical Photography, and in mentorship with others.

He is the director of the feature film Transmutation, the documentary series Shamans of the Global Village, the short Balanced Opposites, and a collection of short-form documentary narrations. Please see his website at https://nilesheckman.com, where you can also find his podcast, An Infinite Path.

I really enjoyed speaking with Niles again. The first time was when we spoke for his podcast for episode 091, entitled, \\u201cSome of the Most Amazing Teachings to Date,\\u201d https://www.nilesheckman.com/podcast/2019/11/3/ep091-greg-kaminsky. I have to say that has been probably the most in-depth interview I\\u2019ve done recently exploring my own path and recent revelations. I tried to do the same for Niles in this interview and learned quite a bit, including that his desire is to inspire and empower by pairing media with ageless wisdom to benefit others.

I respect Niles because he\\u2019s an authentic seeker who\\u2019s willing to dive in and do the work required to learn and grow. And I appreciate the way that he connects with others and shares his explorations with the world. You may as well. If so, you can support his work at https://www.nilesheckman.com/membership.
