Tonya Dawn Recla:
Hello, everyone, and welcome back to The Science of Superpower. So glad you could join us again, we are going to have an amazing episode today. And this is all part of our celebration of the men of co-creation. That’s right. The Superpower Network celebrates the men of co-creation, men who’ve dedicated their existence to the pursuit of something beyond themselves in areas like science, business, medicine, personal development, religion, family relationship, and many others. These men have stepped up and said yes to co-creating a world that aims to inspire all of us. Thank you for modeling character, and honorable pursuits. We love you and love each other. And today’s guest is an absolutely exemplary example of such a man and I’m very excited to introduce him to you here. So we’re going to activate our superpowers right here because here pretty soon we’re gonna be talking all about uplifting humanity.
Tonya Dawn Recla:
So here we go. Ready? You know the practice. I am Tonya Dawn Recla. And I have superpowers. Your turn.
Les Jensen:

Tonya Dawn Recla:
Brilliant. Very fun. All right, folks. So we are going to jump into this conversation unless Jensen, for sure has superpowers. He is the founder of new human living, right, inspiring all of us into that and actually live. I have it right here. So we were awarded as humanity with the Amanda Humanitarian Award for last year. Huge honor. It was so beautiful to receive that. And it really spoke to bless where your heart and your soul are. And I love that you’re part of this men have co-creation. So what does it mean to you to be part of co-creation? What’s that look like for you?
Les Jensen:
I am Les Jensen. And I’ve got superpowers.
Tonya Dawn Recla:
Brilliant. Very fun. All right, folks. So we are going to jump into this conversation unless Jensen, for sure has superpowers. He is the founder of new human living, right, inspiring all of us into that and actually live. I have it right here. So we were awarded as humanity with the Amanda Humanitarian Award for last year. Huge honor. It was so beautiful to receive that. And it really spoke to bless where your heart and your soul are. And I love that you’re part of this men have co-creation. So what does it mean to you to be part of co-creation? What’s that look like for you?
Les Jensen:
Well, it’s perhaps daydreaming. What do we want? I mean, what do we really want, we really lucked out because the normal of 2019 Scott tossed out the door, and we can make a new improved normal. And to the idea that to vision that and then to run embodies that. And for me, some core aspects that I see missing, perhaps in the masculine archetype of the collective are authenticity, a little happiness, some sense of adventure, and courage to blaze new trails, because we’re really laying down a new narrative a new dynamic if we choose to. And really, that’s what the heart of humanity’s really calling us to do.
Tonya Dawn Recla:
You know, I think so too. And we talked before, if you recognize that voice, folks, we realized was on the show, he’s a very favorite here at the network. And he was on my show, with transformational antenna theory. That’s where we really connected in our paths when it comes to the energetics of situations. And I love that you work that into this element of co-creation and the awareness that we’re so much more when we’re together than just simply what it appears, right?
There are so many elements exchanging here. And it bears some attention to that, like you said, like things like happiness, right? We’re real, biggest superpower experts on this movement from this perspective of like, you know, I am this way because these things happen versus I’m choosing to be this way. So these things can happen. Right? And it shifts everything when we make that move. And so the desire to say, okay, how am I expressing into the world, and I think less that’s such a beautiful element of the co-creative process that you emulate, is the awareness of self in the equation. Right?
Who am I in this creative process? Unless you’ve really taken responsibility for that within yourself? What prompted you to kind of make that shift? I’m sure it was a series of gradual or maybe it was a big huge kind of one-day event but that shift into like, why I’m gonna start looking at how am I being so as to create these things around me. Was there something that happened for you that sort of shifted that awareness? Or was it a gradual growth? How did that come about?
Les Jensen:
Sure. Well, I tried to avoid it as long as I could. And we all the cosmic to blame for cracking me upside the head that was like 25 years ago, and I really dropped into a perpetual reflection of myself to really look at and get to know the authentic Good idea of who I am. And when I look at the collective when I look at the masculine, we’re really we’ve been suffering from perhaps testosterone overdose or ego overdose. And the masculine, the patriarchal model, which has been in place across 1000s of years, really doesn’t serve our hearts. And if the element of love isn’t really front and center, I don’t think we can sustain whatever we dream up. But if it doesn’t have that love element, I don’t think it’ll be sustainable long term. And so I really look at the mechanics of love within the individual persona and how that relates to a collective narrative.
Tonya Dawn Recla:
Beautiful and as we talked before, you know, from your history working with electricity, and in those spaces, right, we can start to see how it’s, it’s a challenging conversation for the more traditionally held sort of normative right than the norm of the traditional industry and stuff like that like love just was never really a conversation there. In fact, it was sort of extricated from it. So we’re gonna talk a little bit when we come back from the break of like, how do you work this into conversations when you know, profits are on the line or, or national security, right, or all of these components that don’t seem to mesh well, with this concept of love? And yet, I think that less if we’re all honest, we know that things don’t really go well unless that component is present.
So what are we doing right? Why are we doing this? So before we, before we dive into that, let’s take a quick break, Les, where can we send people to find out more about you?
