In this episode of The Ripple Effect Podcast, Stephanie Romero engages in a heartfelt conversation with JC Carter about the transformative power of mindfulness and meditation throughout different stages of life. JC reflects on beginning meditation as a child, exploring abstract concepts like infinite time and space, and later connecting to prayer, spirituality, and self-discovery. They also discuss nurturing in the context of mindfulness, likening it to a therapeutic process of reparenting, where one learns to deeply see, hear, and validate themselves. This rich dialogue highlights the importance of curiosity, playfulness, and compassion in personal growth.
