January 15
1 hr

Episode Description

What if nothing about your life has ever been wasted, not the pain, not the confusion, not the struggle?

In this episode, Meg sits down with Zen practitioner and former biomedical engineer Grant Goulet to explore consciousness, inner knowing, suffering, death, and the quiet intelligence guiding us beneath thought.

This conversation invites listeners to soften certainty, expand curiosity, and reconsider what it actually means to live in alignment, not with rules or outcomes, but with values that emerge from stillness.
