Description

What if presence was not another thing to master, but the doorway to hearing what your life has been quietly asking for all along?

In this episode of The Resonate Podcast, Aideen sits down with mindfulness and executive coach Samantha Gutowski to explore how a six-day retreat in Chiang Mai sparked a lasting shift from constant motion to grounded, intentional living. 

Sam shares how 5 minute habits like body based check ins, intentional boundaries, and honest self reflection helped her to reshape friendships, deepen her marriage, and reconnect with what truly matters. 

Key Takeaways

• Presence does not require perfect routines, just small, consistent moments of attention
• Everyone has a personal access point to presence, such as music, nature, journaling, or breath
• Mindfulness includes staying with grief, anger, and intensity, not bypassing them
• Naming emotions and letting them move through the body reduces their grip
• The way you speak to yourself may be your most powerful mindfulness practice

If you are curious about practical mindfulness, emotional resilience, and living in alignment with your values rather than other people’s expectations, this conversation offers grounded tools you can begin using today. 

Subscribe, share it with someone craving calm, and leave a review to let us know—what is your access point to presence?
