We're flooded with messages on who to be & how to act, all while we carry the weight to lead, provide & perform. We do what works on the surface, but often lose touch with the man we truly are. Eventually, this backfires: Partners lose trust. Intimacy fades. Relationships break down. Performance suffers. Heart of Man is for the man ready to go deeper—to walk the integrated path, reclaim who he is at his core & discover what it means to live embodied in leadership, love & life. Join Alex in raw conversations with world-class leaders, exploring the modern man's path.","last_synced_at":"2026-09-18T22:25:14.623906+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/heart-of-man-men-s-leadership-relationships-and-intimacy-6476755"},"episode":{"title":"Igor Kufayev: Why So Many Men Feel Lost And How They Can Find Their Way Back | EP 78","slug":"igor-kufayev-why-so-many-men-feel-lost-and-how-they-can-find-their-way-back-ep-78","published_at":"2026-05-26T22:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/heart-of-man-men-s-leadership-relationships-and-intimacy-6476755/igor-kufayev-why-so-many-men-feel-lost-and-how-they-can-find-their-way-back-ep-78","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/heart-of-man-men-s-leadership-relationships-and-intimacy-6476755","url":"https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/heartofman/episodes/Igor-Kufayev-Why-So-Many-Men-Feel-Lost-And-How-They-Can-Find-Their-Way-Back--EP-78-e3jt4aq","audio_url":"https://anchor.fm/s/dfbdca10/podcast/play/120540954/https%3A%2F%2Fd3ctxlq1ktw2nl.cloudfront.net%2Fstaging%2F2026-4-26%2F424891307-44100-2-6648f117b9b71.mp3","summary":"Igor Vamadeva Kufayev is an artist, spiritual master and teacher whose work is dedicated to the potential inherent in human birth. Following a radical transformation of consciousness and the spontaneous unfolding of grace in his mid-thirties, culminating in a fully embodied Self-recognition, he has since served as a conduit of transmission for awakening into the new era of heart-centered consciousness. His live gatherings, extended programmes known as immersions, are renowned for their intensity, clarity and catalytic potential. Drawing from Tantric Śaivism, direct energetic transmission and somatic integration, his work offers a compelling contribution to contemporary understanding of spiritual evolution. Originally trained as a painter, Igor bridges scholarship, poetic articulation and lived realisation.

As a householder and family man, Igor is lovingly raising his three children with his partner Amrita Ma Devi. He continues to guide an international community of practitioners, developing frameworks for exploring the fullest potential of awakened embodiment.
