A giant teddy bear of a golden doodle and a 4 a.m. cuddle sparked a conversation about what it really means to live with presence. We follow that thread from a messy, sweet living room moment into the deeper work of choosing curiosity and intimacy with ourselves—on the mat, in your breath, and in the small decisions that shape your relationships. Along the way, we explore how the brain leans on prediction, why presence takes energy, and how autopilot can dull your connection unless you consciously return to the here and now.

You’ll hear a grounded, practical take on mindfulness as lived peace, not a concept. We talk about noticing personal “tells” like hovering tears, quick irritability, or the urge to numb—signals that it’s time to tune in.

From there, we offer gentle practices you can try today: hand-to-heart breathing, a page of honest journaling, restorative shapes that let the floor hold you, and simple chanting to reorient the nervous system. Fear is welcomed as part of your sacred range; when acknowledged, it gives information instead of running the show.

We also open a window into The Nourished Woman method and why somatic yoga therapy supports high-functioning, heart-led women who carry so much for others. Intimacy with self expands intimacy with partners, kids, friends, and even the land you live on.

By the end, you’ll feel invited to see with fresh eyes, soften the edges of anxiety, and choose a kinder pace that lets love move through your day.

If this lands, follow the show, share it with a friend. 💜
