In this episode of the Unhurried Life Podcast, Adrien and Ingrid reflect on the beauty and challenges of creating from presence rather than perfectionism. Ingrid opens up about preparing for her upcoming retreat and the vulnerable process of letting go of over-planning—a habit tied to her perfectionism—to make room for authenticity and connection to emerge.
We also discuss the challenge of unlearning societal pressures to control outcomes and embrace the unknown. Adrien shares how his past experiences shaped his tendency to overprepare, even in his business mentorship work, and how he’s learning to trust himself and the process. He’s finding a balance between preparation and allowing conversations to flow naturally.
A highlight of our conversation is the unexpected insights Adrien gained from a group coaching exercise in Social Presencing Theater. This transformative experience showed him how much can be communicated through presence, intuition, and body awareness, rather than relying on the thinking mind when facing challenges or building a project.
It’s a deeply personal and reflective conversation about spaciousness, alignment, and creating from your essence.
