After spending almost two decades in long-term relationships, Matthew Ayriss is on a journey home to himself. 

A year into his marriage he realized something wasn’t quite right. And, the career he excelled in producing music videos for artists like Beyonce and Jay Z was feeding the machine he had intended to hold a mirror to, by bringing more consciousness to it. 

With an affair and then a divorce, Matthew realized it was time to align with his roots and discover who he had become as a grown man.

Join soul adventurer, coach, magician and producer Matthew Ayriss and I for a powerful, honest conversation as we dive deep into mommy love, nipples, nudity, the over sexualization of the human body, desire, romantic partnership and radical communication on Episode 95 of Ignite Intimacy!
