This week, spiritual wellness expert Adam Smith joins us from Canyon Ranch to talk about finding calm and clarity in today’s chaotic world. With clinical pastoral training and years of experience supporting people through trauma and hospice care, Adam offers practical ways to build presence, reduce anxiety, and develop spiritual resilience. He explains why embracing uncertainty can be more powerful than chasing control, plus how practices like walking meditation, mindfulness, and curiosity help. Whether you're struggling with burnout, seeking deeper meaning, or just want to feel more alive, this conversation is full of tools to help you reconnect.
