    Join us for an unforgettable episode of the White Fox Talking Podcast as we sit down with Roy Morris, who opens up about his journey from the turbulent streets of Leeds in the 1960s and 70s to a profound path of self-discovery and healing. Growing up as a mixed-race child in a predominantly white community, Roy navigated bullying, racism, and the heartbreak of his father's early departure. He offers a raw and insightful perspective on the evolution of racial relations, providing a poignant look at resilience and personal growth born from adversity.

    Discover the intense and often violent world of the approved school system through Roy's eyes, starting from his entry at age 13. He recounts the daily fights, the lack of structured education, and the solace he found in boxing. Through these experiences, Roy sheds light on the impact of environment and upbringing on behaviour, the trauma endured by young boys in such institutions, and his eventual realization of the need for change. His struggle to break free from a cycle of crime after the birth of his daughter marks a pivotal turning point in his life.

    Explore Roy's transformative journey from a life of crime to entrepreneurship, and the inner battles he fought despite achieving material success. Grappling with deep-seated unhappiness and anxiety, Roy turned to spirituality, plant medicine, and meditation. His profound experiences with ayahuasca brought significant realizations about identity and healing. This episode is a compelling exploration of turning inward to understand oneself and the true path to happiness, free from the chains of societal expectations and past traumas.... to be continued in Part 2...
