Overwhelm. Guilt. Regret. Worry. Forgetfulness. Brain fog.  If you’re feeling any of these more than you’d like to be and are desperate for some relief, there might be an important factor that you’ve overlooked.


If your energy is being scattered in a million directions, and there never seems to be enough time, chances are you’re living in the past or the future way more than you’re living in the right now (also known as your LIFE).


But what does being “present” mean anymore in a world full of distractions? 


In this episode:


  • My personal struggles with presence (even though I’ve studied the topic for years)
  • What my time in India with Guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar taught me about presence 
  • How my son called me out and made me rethink how I was living
  • Why yoga and meditation aren’t always the answer
  • Why presence is crucial during a life transition or going after a dream
  • How to reflect on the past and plan for the future without being pulled out of the present
  • How to create more time (when there never seems to be enough) 
  • The definition of intentional presence (and how to create it)
  • 3 ways to tell if you’re living in the Past Time Zone
  • 3 ways to tell if you’re living in the Future Time Zone
  • 3 ways to bring you back to the Present Time Zone


Grab a notebook, you'll need it!
