The Optimalist Podcast Sara Candela for Focusable The Optimalist podcast seeks to bring you conversations about mindfulness, attention, focus, and getting beyond the need to feel engaged every second in order to be happy and motivated. Life gets more distracting each day, with our physical and digital lives coming together in ways that diminish our ability to pay attention. Now, AI is becoming part of your everyday life - offering new potential but also new demands on your attention. We believe that to flourish, we need to retain the ability to focus. To embrace challenges. To do the deep work. Investing in your ability to focus is the foundation. We hope this podcast helps connect more and more educators to the importance of this effort towards prioritizing better attention and mindful living- in school, work, and at home. Mindful Trip Min Lee Everyone has a story and I believe that sharing your story has the power to connect people. And talking to those who’ve experienced the therapeutic magic of psychedelics and hearing about their personal journey has become my passion. Mindful Trip is a safe space to have conversations that demystify and de-stigmatize the use of psychedelics for therapeutic use. Conversations that allow us to have deeper connections with ourselves and others. I hope that sharing these intimate, funny, and inspiring stories helps you find the answers you’re looking for. So, join me in unraveling the threads, staying open, and trusting the journey.
