Episode 89: The Practice of Presence: A Strategic Path to Awareness

This week on Shed and Shine, Rob and Gino explore the quiet power of presence, not as a goal to chase but as the natural state that remains when effort ceases. Inspired by Leonard Jacobson’s Journey into Now, they reflect on simple ways to access presence in everyday life. Gino shares how presence deepens his work with clients and brings peace to family gatherings, while Rob recalls the stillness of becoming a father and the clarity found in silent retreats.
They remind us that presence, awareness, and consciousness are not rare states reserved for meditation or medicine journeys; they are always available when the ego settles. Try a stillness practice, notice when you are truly connected, and discover what remains when striving fades.
