My guest today is Colm Holland self-described alchemist and author of The Secret of the Alchemist a book. Colm first came across the idea of alchemy when he was a middle manager at Harper Collins Publisher where he assisted Paulo Coelho’s The Alchemist break into the English market. HIs meeting with Paulo Coelho at the time had life changing implications as you will hear.
I almost did not interview Colm. When I first read his book I was struck by the strong echoes of his original Christianity coming through the text, and while I do not object to people’s religious beliefs there are many aspects of Christianity that I consider worthy of challenge. But that was not something I especially wanted to do on this podcast. When I told Colm about this he suggested we just meet and have a chat. This chat showed me I would really enjoy recording this conversation for you, because I found Colm to be both inspiring and heart centred. Ever since meeting Paulo Coelho he really focused on living a life with purpose. This has involved shifting from traditional Christian background to embracing the alchemical pathway, exploring the role of human consciousness in creating magic in our life and living from a place of knowledge that we are unconditionally loved for who we are, not for what we do. Colm has, in a sense, made hi life his own heroes journey. At the end Colm explains a method he uses to transform his own life as well as those of others so stick around for that. And if you enjoy this go check out Colm’s Alchemy Lab podcast where you will find an interview with me. And as always don’t believe in anything, experiment have you own experiences and practice discernment. I hope you enjoy this conversation.
