The Radiant Presence Podcast

Welcome to The Radiant Presence Podcast, a space to honor the inherent worth of your presence. What is our presence worth if we aren't doing, accomplishing, achieving? This podcast is an invitation to rest in, and celebrate the intangible aspects of your being-ness. Through meaningful stories, practical insights, poor attempts at humor, and guided meditations, your host Puja Madan invites you to explore the richness of presence. By embracing our emotional range, experiences, and uniqueness, we discover how to create connection, meaning, and depth in our lives, and in the world. Each episode invites you to challenge old programming, embrace the full spectrum of your humanity, and reclaim the radiant worth of simply being.
