Andy Muller – Mountain Guide, Lion Whisperer
We met Andy a few years ago in synchronistic fashion (he was hitch-hiking on our country road and ended up staying for dinner, music and hours of storytelling) and quickly discovered a great soul brother and powerful teacher on the path of “living our purpose”. Following years of truly extraordinary world travel (from AIDS relief work in Africa to ashrams in India), Andy stepped through a deep childhood fear to discover an extraordinary life path and purpose – working with BIG CATS.
In the past several years, Andy’s passion and natural grace with wild Lions and Tigers in captivity has lead him into extraordinary experiences in South America, Indonesia, New Zealand, Thailand and Tasmania, en route to fostering a greater vision for establishing a wildlife sanctuary and re-integration program for big cats in Africa.
Andy joins us on the path this year to share his extraordinary relationship with two white lions from Africa (currently living in Tasmania), speaking of the power to walk through our fears and the gift of ‘family’ that he has received from his time with these extraordinary beings.
