Meta Predator: Awakening the Guardian Dragon

A Dragon Academy Weekend Intensive

The Hunger Lives in Your Shadow: There’s a predator coiled in your depths that is raw, wanting, relentless. It reaches, consumes, and claims what it desires. You’ve been taught to cage it, shame it, and starve it into submission. But exiled hunger doesn’t die, it prowls the edges of your awareness, driving choices from the dark.

What if you could meet this force not as enemy, but as ally? What if your deepest hungers could become your greatest wisdom?

Day One: The Meta Predator Awakens

With Ali Williams & Josh Billings

We descend into the underworld of desire itself. Here, in the realm where control masquerades as care and seduction whispers sweet manipulation, we face what we’ve been running from.

The Conscious Predator knows what they want and can name it with clarity and confidence.

The Meta Predator goes further: they know how their wanting impacts others and choose to engage from that place of relational awareness, integrity, and power.

If the conscious predator is the jaguar, fully immersed in the playground, the meta predator is the dragon, wide-eyed, field-aware, and sky-bound.

The Meta Predator:

• Owns desire without apology, making conscious deals instead of unconscious grabs

• Leads without dominance or performance, but through relational attunement and care for the collective nervous system.

• Wields power as something consciously offered, relational, responsive, and rooted in integrity

Day Two: The Guardian Dragon Rises

With Ali Williams & Faruk Ates

From the ashes of reclaimed shadow emerges something magnificent: the Guardian Dragon. No longer hungry ghost but devoted protector, this archetype transforms personal power into collective medicine. 

The Guardian Dragon:

• Holds the field not to control or assert authority, but as a sacred act of devotion, creating sanctuary where others can soften, rise, and unfold into their fullness.

• Sacrifices ego for wholeness, staying silent when others need voice, stepping back when others need center stage, holding steady when others are unraveling, or protecting the container even when it costs popularity.

• Transmits unshakable presence, becoming the eye of the storm, the steady ground beneath chaos, creating coherence in the field and allowing others to soften, rise, or take meaningful risks.

• Leads with devotion, not by managing, but by tending the field like a living ecosystem, responsive and alive.

The Alchemical Promise

This is initiation into a deeper field of sovereignty where your power becomes medicine, and your presence becomes sanctuary for a world desperate for authentic leadership.

The path from unconscious predator to guardian is the hero’s journey of our time: transforming the force that once consumed into the power that creates, protects, and serves.

Are you ready to awaken the dragon?
