Morgan Rich

Morgan calls himself the Beyonder, and the first thing you feel sitting across from him is that he lives there.

We met through the podcast, and what stayed with me was how he names a thing that rarely gets language: the trance of the normal world, the way chasing likes and credibility can quietly pull a life off its own course. He’s spent years as a deeply caring, grounded man companioning other men back to their own aliveness, and he practices what he points to: every morning he re-chooses the self he knows himself to be, through poem or dance or stillness, because sleep resets us and the true self has to be re-chosen daily. And he keeps his heart open, every day, in every room.

When you feel the pull to break the trance and run your own race, and you want a brother who’s walked it to companion you, Morgan is who I’d point you to.
