Episode notes

In this enlightening episode, we sit down with Tom Cronin, a former finance broker turned meditation teacher, author, and filmmaker, whose life journey took him from the high-pressure trading floors of Australia to the tranquil depths of meditation and mindfulness. After 26 years in the finance industry, facing addictions, anxiety, depression, and a personal crisis, Tom discovered the transformative power of meditation. This discovery not only changed his life but also ignited a global mission with The Stillness Project, aiming to inspire a billion people to embrace stillness and meditation daily.

Tom shares his compelling story of transformation, from his darkest moments to finding his true calling as a teacher and leader in the world of mindfulness. He discusses his work with some of the world's top companies like Amazon, Coca-Cola, and Qantas, and his contributions to global conferences such as Afest, Adnews Summit, and Wanderlust. With six books, a meditation app, and the groundbreaking film The Portal under his belt, Tom is at the forefront of a movement to bring career and purpose together in a meaningful way.

In this conversation, we dive deep into how meditation can solve individual and collective challenges, the vision of an enlightened planet, and practical steps to overcoming anxiety, depression, and insomnia naturally. Tom is ready to answer all your burning questions, from what inspired him to start meditating, the transition from finance to mindfulness, the creation of The Stillness Project, to the impact of The Portal film and book.

Join us as we explore how success and spirituality can coexist, the power of overcoming self-limiting beliefs, and the actionable steps you can take today to bring more peace, purpose, and stillness into your life. This episode is not just a podcast; it's a pathway to transforming your inner and outer world, inspired by Tom Cronin's remarkable journey and vision for an enlightened planet.
