Tue Feb 03 2026
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 she translated retreat insight into sustainable 5 minute a day habits, using body based check ins, intentional boundaries, and honest self reflection to reshape friendships, deepen her marriage, and reconnect with what truly matters.
