Episode Overview
In this episode of the How to Take Care of Yourself Podcast, we have a segment called Conversations with Kevin, in whichI sit down with my husband, Kevin Casey, for an honest and heartfelt discussion about spiritual growth, manifestation, and navigating life’s challenges with presence and patience. We dive into his journey—from early interests in the paranormal and mythology to deep dives into meditation, yoga, and personal transformation.
Kevin shares how his understanding of spirituality evolved over time, from seeking "enlightenment" to realizing that the real work lies in self-examination, daily commitment, and embracing the messiness of life. We also discuss relationships, personal blind spots, and the lessons learned from practicing self-awareness and showing up fully in love and life.
This episode is packed with real talk, personal stories, and a whole lot of wisdom on the path to self-discovery and growth.
