We hit record in the middle of a real check-in, and what unfolded was an unfiltered, soul-led conversation about shifting from hustle to harmony, and from hyper-productivity to presence.

Joshua shares the breakdown that moved him out of hyper-yang doing and into tea-at-sunrise stillness. Adina reflects on embodiment, sacred service, and why meditation isn’t about “clearing your mind” but about learning to witness with compassion.

Together, we explore what it means to feel without the story, how somatic healing rewires us from the bottom up, and why living a “no regrets” life—rooted in responsibility and intention—is the deepest act of self-love.

This is an episode for entrepreneurs, seekers, and anyone craving a more integrated, soul-led way of being.

• From time-blocking every minute to courting spontaneity, shamanism, and magic
• Morning anchors: tea ceremony, meditation as witnessing, presence before action
• Somatics first: gentle breath + micro-movement to unlock emotion without the mind
• The myth of “I don’t have time” and questioning limiting beliefs with compassion
• Feeling vs. thinking: how our mental stories about our feelings create suffering
• “No regrets” w/ the caveat of responsibility: intention, integrity, and clean accountability
• Relationships, failure, and learning by fire—what balance FEELS like (not looks like)
