Episode 53 – The Art of Paying Attention

What if the doorway to presence isn't trying harder to "be present"… but simply paying attention? In this episode of Salt, Sage & Stardust, Keryn and Vicki explore the quiet art of noticing - how paying attention invites us back into ourselves, deepens our relationships, and opens us to the subtle whispers that life is constantly offering. Together they explore: Why attention is the doorway to the present moment. The difference between listening and truly hearing. How busyness can distract us from what matters most. Why wisdom is gathered through experience rather than information. The role curiosity plays in living a meaningful life. How paying attention transforms ordinary moments into something sacred. Throughout the conversation, Keryn and Vicki weave together the perspectives of Salt (grounding in the tangible world), Sage (the wisdom that emerges through experience), and Stardust (remaining open to wonder, mystery and possibility). As always, Vicki closes the episode by drawing a Tarot card. This week's card is the Two of Wands - a beautiful invitation to step beyond the familiar, trust your inner knowing, and meet life with curiosity rather than certainty. It reminds us that we don't need every answer before taking the next step; we simply need the willingness to pay attention to what is unfolding before us. Perhaps the greatest invitation of all is this: Stay curious. Because maybe life has been speaking to you all along. You simply needed to notice.
